David Was and Wayne Kramer

Found this and a few other tasty things at My Damn Channel.

The screed reads as follows:

"Wayne Kramer redefined rock 'n roll guitar as a member of the extreme Detroit band, The MC5...David Was is one of the founding brothers behind Was (Not Was) and one of the greatest lyricists on Earth.

"Pat Tillman turned down a $3.2 million offer to re-sign with the Arizona Cardinals in order to enlist in the Army following 9-11. While serving in Afghanistan, he grew critical of the war and Bush's policies. He was scheduled to meet with activist Noam Chomsky upon his return from the middle east but was killed by 'friendly fire' - three shots to the forehead fired from 10 yards away. Military and congressional investigations have yet to establish a credible account of the circumstances surrounding his death."

Line-up:

DAVID WAS

WAYNE KRAMER
