Yassky Staffer Leaves for Rock Tour

Here is David Yassky spokesman Sam Rockwell, who is leaving the Council payroll to go on tour with his band, The XYZ Affair. I asked Rockwell, who plays drums and provides backup vocals, if working in politics has ruined his cred in the music scene--both he and Yassky weigh in.

(And just so you know, his group is playing at the Bowery Ballroom on Friday.)
