Hi, folks, It is with great amusement that I read this thread about Plain Folk. I am the "Yoko Ono" of Plain Folk as she left Pennsylvania in early 1985 to move to New York because of me. We're still together over 19 years later. Mercy performed solo for a couple of years while in the NYC area, but fights within the folk community and being pulled by her other talent as an artist brought her to an illustrator and cartoonist career. Recently, she has started performing regularly as a member and now as the leader of The Raging Grannies (New York City's branch), a group within WILPF (Women's International League for Peace and Freedom). She also sometimes sings with the Ray Korona Band, Three Card Monte and Joel Landy, recently recording a Community Gardens song with Three Card Monte. She also pops up on WBAI-FM every once in a while. She was co-host with me of 'Nuff Said! for it's last 14 months (2001-2002). Her web page is http://www.comicbookradioshow.com/mercy.
Thanks, Ken
