EMPTY V: The Legendary John Norris

Posted September 7th 2009 at 11:14 pm by TheDiscerningBrute

John Norris might be one of the most recognizable faces to anyone who liked music during the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s. John had one of the longest-running VJ careers on MTV, and has incredible perspective on where we stand concerning pop-culture. His environmentalism, veganism, and massive, glitter-crusted Rolodex of important musicians spanning a quarter-century make his perspectives worth considering. I sat down with John recently at the Jivamukti Cafe in NYC to talk about the state of mass media, music, and his personal politics.

    IS there a link to a video of the interview? Or more info on the interview? All I see is the one paragraph post.

    Whoa. I had no idea they put love in the smoothies at Jivamukti.

    At first I thought it wasn’t there either, (there was just a big blank spot at the bottom of the post) but then I simply clicked and it popped up. Weird.
