protest records: exists for musicians, poets and artists
to express LOVE + LIBERTY
in the face of greed, sexism, racism, hate-crime and war.

check that out!
more television: according to marquee moon mailing list, irving plaza on the 22th and washington d.c. 9:30 club on the 24th were both great. makes me jealous.
fuji rock fest lineup: according to fujirockers.org, it is rumored that iggy pop will appear at fuji rock this year. so you may want to ask if it will be the stooges or iggy pop solo. i asked this to mike watt who is now a member of the stooges reunion for upcoming coachella fest. he kindly replied me that coachella is the only stooges gig scheduled so far.
iggy pop alone is great, but i really wish that iggster comes with the asheton brothers and mike stooge.
thanks for the info, mike!
