Roller Derby with Jane Wiedlin of the Go-Gos
OK, this is stretching the “performance art” umbrella a little far, but I don’t get to do as much with the celebrity thing as my fellow bloggers here at B5Media, so I’ll take what I can get.
Tonight I’m going to be running a video camera for the Mad Rollin’ Dolls, the Madison Women’s Flat Track Derby team. And as it happens Jane Wiedlin, the pixie voiced singer for the Go Gos, will be the singer of the National Anthem for tonight’s bout.
I can’t claim to be a diehard fan, but I do like them better than the Bangles, since they were more of the pioneers of real all-girl bands. If it wasn’t for them, I doubt we’d have bands like the 5-6-7-8’s, for example…and so I’m really hoping to come away with a picture with her.
