Who's causing the division here? Who's paranoid? Where is the animosity coming from? Just play your songs. Art is best when the audience can gather their own meaning. The lemming half of Americans should be forced to process their decisions with a little logic instead of being led around on the heart strings of their idols.

The fact that there are no Republican musicians makes me wonder on the validity of the artists beliefs. Would they be cool if they sang of orginization, tradition, or morals? Would they be millionaires? Hell no! But nowadays they would be rebelious. I for one am a little tired of the same old nostalgic, hippy act I've got to hear between some otherwise great songs.

With a fervor that hasn't been witnessed since musicians in the late '60s united to protest President Richard M. Nixon..."

That was a bit before my time. How'd that end up working out for them?

Quick!!!!

Name a Dave Matthews song!!!!!

Quick!!!

What's the last big hit for Springsteen?

Don't look at the answers....who are the two other Dixie Chicks besides Natalie Maines?

When America gets tired of this concert (it'll just take a few more more articles), I'm willing to bet that you STILL won't know the answers to these questions.
