TEN YEARS OF FEAR, GRIEF, REVENGE AND RESILIENCE

The Samaritan

By John Maguire

It is one of the day's most familiar and most chilling images: rescue workers carrying the beloved Fire Department chaplain Father Mychal Judge from the rubble. But the man nearest Judge was no rescue worker: he was a 28-year-old associate at Goldman Sachs. Seeing papers flying in the air outside his office, he headed into the chaos on the ground. Just
after the first tower fell, he found the men struggling to carry the dying Judge. It was too late to perform CPR, so John Maguire started back toward Ground Zero. Then the second tower collapsed. “I jumped under a truck, and everything went black,” he recalls. “I thought, ‘I guess this is how it’s going to end.’ “
        
Maguire eventually made it to the apartment of his sister, who showed him the photo the next day: “It seemed surreal.” He found solace in an unexpected place. Recalled to active duty, the West Point graduate served as a civic-affairs officer in Iraq from 2006 to 2007. Doing so was his therapy, alleviating a crushing sense of futility. Today, Maguire is back at Goldman. "_______( I )________ because I commute through that site every day."

The annual Bridge School Benefit has featured special acoustic sets by everybody from David Bowie and Paul McCartney to Metallica and Phish. But for the 24th edition, on October 23rd and 24th, organizer Neil Young unveiled a stunning finale: the first set since 1968 by his old band Buffalo Springfield. "From my perspective, we just picked up where we left off many, many years ago," says singer Richie Furay. “It was almost like going back in time.”
        
Over two chilly, wet days at the Shoreline Amphitheater near San Francisco, babyboomers and local dot-com kids gathered for a remarkable, eclectic
lineup: Jackson Browne and David Lindley tackled Bruce Springsteen’s 1983 “Brothers Under the Bridge”; Kris Kristofferson broke out “Me and Bobby McGee”; Billy Idol revved up the crowd with a singalong on “Rebel Yell”; and Pearl Jam blasted through their eighth appearance at the benefit. At the end of their set, which included “Black” and “Better
Man”, Young joined them on his new tune “Walk With Me.” “We played it for him backstage, and he said, ‘That’s basically it, but let me show you what you aren’t playing,’ ”says Pearl Jam guitarist Stone Gossard. "We _____( I )_____ an interaction with him that __( II )__ a lesson in the sheer, raw love of rock.”
