According to the news on Expecting Rain's front page, Rubin "Hurricane" Carter has terminal prostate cancer. He's spent most of his time since his release working towards the rights of those wrongly accused.

I think introducing Hurricane to the 2012 NET setlists would be appropriate.

I said a whole lot about Carter's boxing career in another thread. I don't feel like repeating all of that right now, but yeah Carter is cool and it would be nice for Hurricane to be in this year's setlist.
