Anti-war music video shot in NH (Barf!!!!)
New Hampshire Union Leader ^ | November 2, 2005 | BRIAN DeKONING

ROLLINSFORD - Grammy-winning musician Robert Cray spent yesterday standing in a hayfield surrounded by shoes while his wife ordered him around.

"I just want people to see what I deem as a war for no reason, but only for greed," Cray told reporters during a break in filming. "There's been nothing proven about weapons of mass destruction or anything like that and all these boots out here are of innocent victims."

I remember one song he had from a few years back and the DJ said "This is the new Eric Clapton..." Hardly.

More Leftist drivel without foundation. OK, what greed? How much free oil is the US getting? What an idiot he is. Of course if he'd taken his head out of his backside long enough to get a peek at the world as it really is he may have noticed that Iraqis are actually voting with their votes actually being counted...and if he ever bothered to stop reading the liberal rags he'd hear most Iraqis thanking the US for the help...I know I've been personally thanked by some Iraqis and that is without even going to Iraq personally.

I'd bet W.C. Handy never went to New Hampshire.

That's a picture of Buddy Guy, I think. It's certainly not Robert Cray.

He's not such a strong persuader after all.

Has anyone noticed we seem to be getting the full court press of ignorance thrown at us this week? I mean, the dems and the wack-o's seem to be throwing everything including the kitchen sink out there!

What are they up to, hiding or done that's set them off?

Yup, greed. All that cheap oil we're getting is worth it, too.

Sorry, I don't think your photo is of Robert Cray. He's here: http://www.robertcray.com/entry.php

What do you expect of the Robert Cray band,..they're all from Northern California or SF. They can't help themselves.

And Albert King can whip BB's ass with a guitar. Albert is MUCH tougher than BB. I think BB is boring.

I say Buddy Guy at the Fillmore East once.

Boy, did I use to go to a lot of concerts in NY and LA. They used to be cheap.

Where were all these left wing kooks when Clinton bombed Iraq to stop Saddams WMD's?
Until the left publicly denounces Bill Clinton, their propaganda is childish nonsense.

As far as a music video intended to sway the masses, I doubt those people vote anyway. If they're dumb enough to listen to this crap, they shouldn't be getting involved in important issues like voting anyway. That should be left to the adults.

Yes, that's Guy and not Cray. ("Smoking Gun", "Don't Be
Afraid of the Dark"). he also can be seen in Animal House
as bass player for Otis Day and the Knights (film was
shot in Oregon, I believe, where he was living at the
time

>Additional Cast
The Knights: Robert Cray, Robert Bailey, Sonny King, Tommy Smith and Juan Steen
