MC5 might be worth a punt i suppose , the "guest vocalists" idea just seems a bit tribute-bandy.B other act of that ilk still playing are the NY Dolls ; suppose they'd be good live but that last album was a bit of a bland-fest. so who's going to the wire warmup then?B should be a great night....... p ________________________________ From: "MarkBursa@aol.com" To: keith.indoorminer@virgin.net; sasscer1@bellsouth.net; idealcopy@smoe.org Sent: Thursday, 8 January, 2009 3:20:12 PM Subject: Re: [idealcopy] A fond adieu to Mr. Asheton >>Yes, gutted I never got to see the re-formedB Stooges.<< I missed them by one day in Detroit once, about 2003.
