Picture stolen off Pitchfork… so was the story
One sunny summer Sunday in 2008, I went to the movies at Lincoln Plaza and then wandered down to Summerstage hours before Santogold was supposed to give a free performance. Har Bloody Har. the line went from 75th street to 59th street.
Well, Santogold is are homegrown M.I.A. so it is hardly surprising the woman behind “L.E.S. Artistes” and “Lights Out” was a bitch to get in to see. More surprising is she has been producing Devo. This quote is off a Paste interview as quoted on Pitchfork. Oh, before the money quote another credit? Devo hat illustration by Nick Relph. “It was amazing. They’re my band idols. Them and the Smiths. I made them pull out the red hats and pose for a picture.”
