Lou Reed, Philip Glass, Sonic Youth, John Zorn, Gary Lucas, Richard
Belzer and other notable artists will join THE FUGS for a benefit
concert for Tuli Kupferberg, the Beat poet and original member of The
Fugs, at St. Ann’s Warehouse in Brooklyn on Jan. 22.
Mr. Kupferberg, 86, has had two strokes over the last year, which have
left him blind. The ticket proceeds from the concert, which is being
produced by Hal Willner, will help pay his medical expenses.
Among the others performers are the singer John Kruth; Ed Sanders, Mr.
Kupferberg’s fellow Fug; and Peter Stampfel of the Holy Modal Rounders
(who also played on early Fugs albums). Tickets are $75 to $125 and
are available at stannswarehouse.org or (718) 254.8779.
