aleeThought I'd pass this along to some of the old and new hippies here who LUV Love. I was SO hyperventilating and excited to read this today in the LA Weekly, but then learned (boohoo) that it immediately sold out. ;-( But that's a good sign that maybe we'll be seeing more of the resurrected Arthur Lee around these parts again soon! The Knitting Factory is starting a week of tributes to the Beatniks and there are going to be amazing guests every night starting Saturday. Oh, maybe I'll go just hang outside the place to see if I can somehow get in! ;-) Kakki
