Typical Girls: Women in Punk/Post-Punk/Underground Music (Circa 1975-1980s)

[Lydia <HunnyPi007 AT aol.com>]

This event is very exciting & will be a great tribute to Ari. The one and only time I saw the original Slits, Neneh Cherry sang with them, so this will be fittingly bittersweet. I'm really hoping Viv Albertine will also be able to participate & will work on that. Or has she already given a very firm "no"? Trying to think who else would be good for this and it's harder then you'd expect at first. Ari was so unique.

Details still being finalized but I can say that Neneh Cherry & Tessa will perform. There's still room for a few more performers to cover Ari / Slits songs - anyone here keen or have suggestions? They asked me and I suggested Beth Ditto..

There's also a question of who it might benefit $wise - altho hard to see that they'll make too much after all the air fares..  I suggested rockcamp for girls, but Tessa says Ari wasn't especially interested.. Vivien suggested Ari's kids but they haven't responded and the family has money..  perhaps the TG Ari digital archive might be a candidate - how advanced is the idea? Who can pitch it?

Feel free to respond on or off list.
