From the New York Post‘s Page 6 (April 9, 2008) (link taken from EV Grieve) :
BRUCE Willis is not being warmly welcomed by the anarchists, Marxists and counter-culture riffraff of the Lower East Side now that he’s opened the Bowery Wine Company on East First Street. “We want to show our opposition to right-wing Republicans opening yuppie wine bars in our neighborhood,” activist John Penley told Page Six. Penley, who is organizing the August celebration of the 20th anniversary of the riots in Tompkins Square Park, said, “We’re getting a pig and we’re naming it Bruce.” The whole, roasted pig from Chinatown will be served while folk singer David Peel serenades with his anthem, “Die Yuppie Scum!”
Though I’m thrilled to bits to see that David Peel — the missing link between the rock family trees of G.G. Allin and John Lennon — is still kicking around, I’m equally saddened to note that blatant copyists are getting all the You Tube play.
I remember a few years back having an “David Peel is still alive!?” moment.
But if he’s anything like John Sinclair… it’s not going to be as interesting as one expects…
