Today I was reading Stereogum in an effort to beat the late afternoon work woes when I came across a section that linked to David Cross' Cigar Corner on the Bob and David website. This quote is from the piece entitled It's Official which was also quoted on Sterogum's blog:
Also, I have been asked to “curate” a show at the Beacon Theater on Aug 31st to play opposite the RNC while it’s in town taking over nearly every venue in town. This is no exaggeration as Clear Channel (owned by supreme asshole Tom Hicks – ex business partner of Bush and ex owner of the Texas Rangers) has allowed the RNC to rent every Clear Channel venue in town to hold “functions” for the nice Republican folks who are coming to a place so wicked and heathen they think the Devil himself built it. That’s right, no shows at Irving Plaza or the Bowery Ballroom etc, etc for five days! 1500 Republicans on the corner of Bowery and Delancy in the Lower East Side? This I gotta see.
For the record, I'd like to state that the Bowery Ballroom does not have any Clear Channel affiliation. In addition the Bowery does not currently have any plans to host any events in relation to the Republican National Convention. Cross has made false claims regarding the club and I just wanted to make sure no one was getting the wrong idea about one of our beloved L.E.S. clubs. Furthermore the club only holds about half the capacity David claims will be standing on the corner. So we're clear. Outside of the Laura Bush's coming out party, the Bowery is not involved in the RNC.

On Michel Gondry's Directors DVD you can catch a short film starring Gondry and Cross...it includes a man-sized walking talking piece of shit.
