Colbert-Stewart Rallies Book Elvis Costello, Want Cat Stevens


Roger Friedman
October 14th, 2010


The Jon Stewart-Stephen Colbert rallies in Washington DC are starting to pick up musical artists.

I’m told that the rallies, set for October 30th, have already booked Elvis Costello and Jeff Tweedy of Wilco.

More names are coming. But the organizers also have asked for Cat Stevens, aka Yusuf Islam. The famed 70s pop singer is deciding whether or not to accept the invitation.

Toby Keith and the magnificent Mavis Staples are also said to be on the list for both rallies, which will be on the Mall in Washington DC and are semi serious send ups of the idiotic Sarah Palin-Glenn Beck rally of a few weeks ago.

This sentence has been rewritten to remove Elvis' name. It now only mentions Tweedy.

Elvis said on U.K. tv this Friday morning that he was 'going back to New York tomorrow', further making an appearance by him in DC unlikely.
