Laura Kennedy RIP |
|
As mentioned several times here, last night saw the NYC memorial for the Bush Tetras' Laura Kennedy at the Bowery Electric. It was a casual but touching affair which saw tributes from friends like former Mudd Club doorman
Richard Boch, and writer
Linda Yablonsky, as well as fine mini-sets from the
Bush Tetras themselves (with longtime member Julia Murphy on bass), BT drummer Dee Pop's other band - the free jamming
Radio I-Ching,
Band of Outsiders, and
Jean Caffeine. Beautiful black & white photos, like the one above were shown on a giant screen - many of them by
Lisa Genet, and several by
Laura Levine. DJ
Delphine Blue spun some fine tunes throughout the evening, and the whole night was topped off with a couple of songs by Lenny Kaye.
Overall, a beautiful tribute to someone who meant a whole lot to all whom she met, and then some! Read a nice review by Weasel Walter
here.
