Wish Roger Waters would follow Pete’s advice, well at least David Gilmour does.
I post a LOT on a political forum in a musicians’ site. I’d say 15% of us are conservative. about 10% are somewhat centrist or try to be. The rest are not just liberals. They are hard left. And some of them are actually pretty smart otherwise. But they are absolutely blinded.
Andy Partridge of XTC, probably my favorite band of all, has really gone off the deep-end on Twitter lately.
Of course I know he’s been a militant atheist for years after hearing “Dear God”, but he’s been posting a lot of anti-Israel stuff lately on Twitter. The irony is, the song that “Dear God” replaced on Skylarking “Mermaid Smiled” is one of my favorite Partridge compositions.
Oh well, like they say, my record collection would be empty if I only listened to people who agree with me.
