Day 99: The Factory
Today, August 6th saw the birth of artist and icon Andy Warhol. I'm sure you all know as much about him as anyone else.
In honor of his birth-date, I put together a shortish-list of artists known to have hung out in The Factory, Warhol's infamous studio, which really flourished during the mid-1960s. Now The Factory was rumored to have seen the likes of dozens upon dozen of some prolific musicians of the era. But, I'm just going to to go with ones that were infamous for their association with the studio.
