Big News In Small Rock!

Mike Doughty will take the rest of 2006 off from touring to focus on his
latest venture: a campaign for New York State Senate, representing the 7th
District (comprising most of northern Nassau County, Long Island).

"I've always had a keen interest in local government," Doughty says. "And
the 'Unsingable Name' actually was 'Suozzi.'"

Doughty's priorities as a Senator would include a moderate raise in
property taxes to raise subsidies for Nassau County's soy gluten farmers;
and defusing tensions between Nassau County authorities and the local
chapter of the Busboys' Guild, which have spun out of control in recent
months.

Doughty assures his fans that a victory in the State Senate election in
November won't be the end of his music career: "I'm apartment-hunting in
Albany right now," he says, "and as it turns out, for what I pay for a
studio apartment in Manhattan, I can get a small mansion near the capitol
building and build a home studio right in the living room. I love it
upstate!"
