Janet Reno: the next Barry Gordy?
On September 18th a three disc set of songs from American history entitled “Song Of America” will be released. Spearheaded by Janet Reno, the project features Devendra Banhart, John Wesley Harding, Johnny “Cougar” Mellencamp, and a personal favorite, The Blind Boys of Alabama.
J-Ro had this to say about the project,
“The historical detail of the songs fascinated me and I suggested that Ed [Pettersen] record a whole album of songs focusing on key periods in American history, in order to tell our story to young people who might find joy in learning history through music.”
But really the only reason why I wanted to post this was to be able to post this video.

Update: I wanted to embed the video in the post. But it appears I can’t do that. I figure it must be a plot by Matt. And ain’t that just how it is? Those patrician blue-bloods always trying to consolidate their power while keeping you down.

That picture made my morning.
Will Farrell is freaky genius!
WELLSTONE UPDATE-
Apparently Hollywood will be involved in the Wellstone U.S. Senate run in due time. It has come to my attention the Broom campain will be bringing in some very big named people next year.
I saw Broom the other day at a Holiday gas station passing out T-shirts and bumper stickers with 4 Hooters girls. I asked Broom why he hasn’t been blogging lately on MN Publis.
Broom assured me he’d be back and say’s he misses Broom Jr.
