A Death in the Family
Deep Donkey Crew, Oklahoma City's premiere gay communist rap band, is no more.
The details of the band's demise are not suitable for this, a family website, but the band is as dead as Freddie Mercury.
I won't say this is a devastating blow. I'm sure everyone in the band will carry on. The world will keep turning. I just think the world is a bit poorer now.
Still, say what you want about the DDC, but of all the local bands playing today, probably none of them will become the next Flaming Lips. Most will disappear without a trace. But ten years from now, you'll still hear people say, "Do you remember that band Deep Donkey Crew? Those guys were [insert whatever phrase they'll be using in 10 years that means roughly the same as "off da hook"]!"
