Bob "dj BC" Cronin sez, "Last winter Big D and The Kids Table (the ska/punk outfit I have worked with, you may remember) recorded a kicking dubby punk song called "It's Raining Zombies On Wall Street." Funny how predictive it now seems. Video from the recent protests has been cut together to make a pretty effective video, and the audio file of the tune is available as a free download as well."

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

    All good punk rock songs have a reggae-paced bridge about 2/3rds of the way thru.  Reference: The Clash, Subhumans, Youth Brigade…

    Maybe you should start a movement: “Occupy Boing Boing”!

    I for one love BB more than ever because it includes into its mix stuff that matters.

    I’m just gonna skirt around the actual content/message here and ask: how is this  in any way  dubby? [/nitpicking]

    Yay, zombies on Wall Street!

    It’s too bad they couldn’t have worked in some giant puppets. Nothing gets the protest-wary middle class up off the sofa so much as those things.

    Just when you think a movement has legs… this lot hits the stage, and suddenly people think to themselves; “Great, now I can’t post stuff on #Occupywallstreet on my Facebook wall, cuz I’ll end up arguing with my brother-in-law about the stupid zombie stunt rather than the actual issues.”
