Guitar Friday

I’ve been working on a big exhibition of Andy Warhol silkscreens, paintings and prints for the past three months, so I’ve been surrounded by images of Campbell’s Soup cans and Marilyn Monroe’s and Chairman Mao’s.

But how to tie this back to the rock, and more importantly Guitar Friday. The obvious idea would be to run a clip of the Dandy Warhols, but eff those douchbags. Then I remembered that Warhol and Lou Reed were tight, and Reed did a tribute to Warhol with John Cale. They’re not all rockin’ and giitarin’, but this one, titled “Work,” is pretty funky.

    I think you made a good choice and I’ve never seen that video before so that was cool.
    But was it really necessary to call me a douchebag?

    No kidding, Zia. Even if you guys did sell out with that Vodafone ad back in the day, and if Taylor-Taylor is a dumbass for using heroin.

    Nice going Greedo. Meanie.

    Ha, looks like an active post already. I always liked half of every Dandy Warhols album… and Zia used to always take her shirt off and play tambourine which is fab. Nude tambourine for the win.
