| MOTOWN VIDEO PICKS BY SCOTT MORGAN Posted: 31 Jul 2011 04:59 PM PDT  Kim and Scott the velvelettes hit was needle in a haystack. i saw them lip synch it at the saline farm council grounds. really saying something was covered by banarama. dave marsh from cream and rolling stone turned me on to this song. i sang a verse on his satelite radio show in new york. when i went to the music awards in detroit i somehow ended up in the miracles dressing room with bobby moore and sylvester potts from the contours. i had to sing it again. maybe i should just record it. seems easier. Kimmer loves the Tempts and Supremes version of I'll Try Something New" freda's big hit was band of gold. this was the follow up. i had never seen a motown artist do the robin seymour show in faded jeans. things were changing. we saw the moby grape play live on that show. no one did that. that was about the time we refused to wear pancake makeup and lip synch.  |
| DICK WAGNER IS COMING TO DETROIT!!! Posted: 31 Jul 2011 02:58 PM PDT  Dick Wagner and business partner Suzy Michelson Kimmer got an email today from Suzy Michelson Dick Wagner's business partner out in Arizona. Suzy sent this message to me: Hi Kim, How you doing, girl? Hope all is sweet in your life... We have confirmed Dick for two dates for live gigs in Michigan in September.... His first time playing live in four years!! So of course, he has to come back to Michigan to do it! Sept 9 at the Magic Bag in Ferndale Sept 17 at White's Bar in Saginaw He's excited, and playing a lot to get ready. :-)) He's got great back up: Donny Hartman as guest star, Ray Goodman, and the Soul's Journey band.

Posted: 31 Jul 2011 01:25 PM PDT  SRC/Seatbelts in Saginaw/photo: Rick Mills Got a happy call this am from Scott Richardson lead vocalist and songwriter of the legendary SRC band.... He told me right away that is rained a bit last night and this giant rainbow appeared behind the stage.... and lucky for us Rick Mills the lead guitarist of The Seatbelts captured this shot of it... So cool... Beautiful night. Skid Marx called me from sound check and I got to hear Scott singing and it was pitch perfect and just perfect! Scott calls me and sings songs to me over the phone and it is always such fun . I loved hearing that last night.

| IGGY SLAMS CANADIAN BABY SEAL SLAUGHTER.. Posted: 31 Jul 2011 12:01 PM PDT  Musician Iggy Pop arrives at PETA's 30th Anniversary Gala and Humanitarian Awards at The Hollywood Palladium on September 25, 2010 in Los Angeles, California. (September 24, 2010 - Photo by Jason Merritt/Getty Images North America) ***Warning*** this story is graphic and tough to watch but I feel very strongly as does Iggy about that fact that this horrific Baby Seal "hunting" is still going on! FULL PETA STORY HERE Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Iggy Pop is raising his voice against Canada's horrific seal slaughter. Each year, the Canadian government allows sealers to descend on the ice to club hundreds of thousands of seals to death and sell the animals' pelts on the international fur market. Sealers routinely hook these fuzzy creatures in the eyes, cheeks, or mouth to avoid damaging their fur and then drag the animals across the ice.  The seal-hunters crush baby seals' skulls in with their clubs before they skin them. The Stooges' front man has joined forces with PETA to denounce the seal slaughter by starring in a public service announcement and spreading the word that "Canada's club scene sucks."  |
