In 1967, one of America’s most original bands, The Fugs, went to Washington D.C. on a mission to levitate the Pentagon and exorcise the evil war-mongers who were expanding the Vietnam War. NOW – 50 years later, The Fugs (Ed Sanders, Scott Petito, Steve Taylor and Coby Batty) have returned to save us all from the new crop of evil-doers who have taken up residence in the White House. With the inspiration and guidance of Ed Sanders, Bob Holman, and the spirit of Tuli Kupferberg, I created a music video to accompany The Fugs brand-new “Exorcism of the White House.”
The Fugs
Their pre-punk prophetic genius was political for now and always.

Comment by Joel blue on 30 May, 2017 at 12:10 pmHope for a lively turnout and show of disdain with the spirit of The Fugs setting a unifying focus that will not fall off afterwards to apathy and complacency.
