If anyone is going to be in DC this weekend, the people from http://www.YellowCakeWalk.net will be teaming up with a Street Theater / Mime Troop from San Francisco for a special marathon chimp slapping this Sunday. The event will take place on the North side of the White House and should run from about 12:30 until dark. Anyone who shows up is welcome to take part in the festivities. A few Bush masks will be available on site for the walk ons, but it would be helpful if you could bring your own. Incidentally, I just heard that Wayne Cramer from the MC5 is going to be one of the acts at the 3:00 PM concert. Is this a blast from the past or not?

who's Wayne Cramer from the MC5?
It's a radical 60s band. The MC5 was supposed to be part of the White Panther Party. They had one hit called "Kick Out The Jams (MFer)" They weren't very good but their album is a bit of a collectors item.
You're not giving them enough credit where credit is due. Before the Ramones, before Iggy, before even Lou Reed, there was The MC5. If you really want to trace the roots of punk back to the very beginning, you have to go back to The MC5. In their own way they were a major step forward in music. Well, at least a major step sideways, if you will...
Before the Ramones, before Iggy, before even Lou Reed, there was The MC5. I have the album with the manifesto & MFer lyrics,I was going to frame it. Unfortunately I don't have a turn table to listen to it on and it's in storage. I'll Limewire up some of their music and give it a listen

I actually like Kick Out the Jams. It really has balls. I listen to it on the IR headphones when I run the vacumn cleaner and other stuff around the house that requires physical activity. SOS by Motley Crew is also good for house cleaning.
I heard this was valuable. By the time I got around to buying the album back in the 1960s they had censored this and changed Kick Out the Jams MF to Kick out the Jams Brothers and Sistes. I didn't get the MF version until I bought a re- issued CD last spring.
