To: a fool in paradise

“The Sound Strike was launched in late May by de la Rocha to mobilize fellow musicians to participate in the boycott effort, to educate the musicians’ fans about the law, and to gather signatures on a petition calling for its repeal. Cypress Hill, Juanes, Conor Oberst, Los Tigres del Norte, Rage Against the Machine, Cafe Tacvba, Kanye West, Calle 13 as well as Oscar winning filmmaker and activist Michael Moore were among the artists who signed on to the campaign at its launch.”

Wow, such important and popular performers..that should teach AZ. Lame bands for a lame cause.

After Dion, Rage Against America, Cypress Hill, and Nine Inch Nails (didn't three of those 4 play Lollopalooza in the early 1990s?), there aren't a whole lot of "known" artists on the full list.

Steve Earle got a Chevy ad (the Communist tinged, "The Revolution Starts Now!") but I doubt he gets much radio play.
