[Indigsol] Re: Benefit concert title- discussion!

[jeff monaghan]

i like "Folk Uranium and Folk the Law".

i know that B2P got into some hot water with an establishment a couple
years ago when we had a No Police Brutality event.  the establishment felt
like fucking with cops was not too good an idea because they are a bunch
of vindictive mobsters that are known to be quite retaliatory.  so while
it makes a very sexy title, the green door would have to deal with the
harassment afterwards.  which is kinda shitty.

"fuck the law", on the other hand, conveys a similar sentiment but with
more subtlety and will probably keep those illiterate meatheads off our
backs.

fff, -bones.
