Today, I'm thankful for artists who call out hatred and oppression. It's impossible to ignore the openly aggressive rhetoric coming from government agencies and the very well documented crimes of ICE. Please support human dignity today on Thanksgiving. #JesseWelles

A full circle interview for me. One year ago Lou and I talked one of his other bands and it was a piece that helped break two years worth of writer's block. This time around I got to speak with Lou with a clear head, and a boatload of questions.
@billbodkin.bsky.social intervies Asbury Park legends Status Green about their 20 Year Reunion Show at The Stone Pony on Friday, opening for Bon Jovi as their 5th show ever, Jon Stewart opening for them this weekend and so much more.
