Audiences of all ages have thrilled to the post-corporate comic stylings of satirical songster Dave Lippman.
The 99% troubadour (he's not yet complete) afflicts the complacent, takes the air out of the windbags of the week, de-distorts history, and updates worn-out songs with parody and thrust. His Occupy Singalongs are the hit of any party. Or non-party. Sample tunes: All We Are Saying is End Corporate Crime, I Hate Wal-Mart, Alberta Tarbillies, Ghostwriters of the Law...
On the extreme other hand, Lippman's evil twin Wild Bill Bailout, the Bard of the Bankers, employs anti-folk songs and pro-financial collapse anthems to explain (and enforce) that the business of America is none of your business, that those too big to fail are also too big to jail, and that the jobless and foreclosed must bail out their own boats.
Mandatory listening: Brother Can You Spare a Diamond, Sgt. Pepper Spray, Geithner Fit the Battle at Goldman Sachs...How will Wild Bill finesse the collapse of capital and find a new way to rule the world? Will he succeed in Occu-Buying Occupy? Stay tuned!
