name that station, and win!!!The word green these days is used so much you get sick of hearing it, however, the fact that people are talking about it is a very good thing despite how annoying those people can be.
In honor of EARTH DAY which is coming this Friday 4/20....I present a very green article - Thomas Friedmans Column: The Power of Green. Its a 15 pager, well worth it, dig in.
What what WHAT:
Guitarist Marc Ribot Arrested as NYC club Tonic closes - I really respect Mr. Ribot (and I mean that in all seriousness)
- Learn more with loads of pictures of the whole Tonic closing here
- Rebecca Moore was also arrested and had this to say:
- "Just updating this story that Marc and I were indeed arrested that day, in our attempt to keep the music playing at Tonic, the performance space this music community had raised over $100,000 dollars in funds to try to keep open and attempt to keep the rent paid. Nothing can pay these insane rents in NYC, no art or community can survive under these circumstances. Brooklyn and Queens are not exempt and falling prey to the same circumstances. It is not a coincidence that the Blue Building Luxury Condo building is now finished, people are moving in to their million dollar residents there, and Tonic has had to shut down. I submitted myself to arrest for this reason, and hope word spreads and others are moved to stand up against real estate being the sole determining factor of what culture and art and music and people get to stay in NYC."
On Earth Day Weekend - we have a bunch of halfway decent music all around town long due to the Green Apple Music Festival.
- Join me at Southpaw for Grace Potter and The Wood Brothers.
