``At some point, you can't sit still,'' said Vedder, a harsh critic of the Iraq war. ``You can't spend your life, when people are getting killed, without asking serious questions about why.''

Eddie is one of the music world's most active crusaders for abortion rights, having killed the child he and a girlfriend conceived when he was a teenager. He still justifies the killing by explaining that if he had had to care for a child, he never could have shared his genius with the world.

"We're trying to put forward a group of progressive(immoral, pornographic, anti_American, anti-religious, anti-family) ideals and change the administration in the White House(with rich, elitist hollywood and jealous of American-hating euro-trash)."

``There's never been a political climate like this, which is so the polar opposite of me as a person and what I believe in.''

Sometimes, it’s hard to convey the totally dingbat idiotic tone of your voice when your words are printed.

Not so for Natalie.

``A change is in order,'' Maines said. ``There's never been a political climate like this...

Gotta disagree with you there. This political climate has been in existance since the 1992 campaign, right through the Clinton years. It's just that the shoe is on the other foot now, and you are just beginning to notice it Ms. Maines.

``We're chipping in our two cents. That's all we're trying to do

2cents... LOL!! I imagine the tab will be much more, plus the "money" rai$ed.
Unfortunately, your ability to do this comes from the fact people "listened" to your "art". Without your fan base, you would not have been able to do this. You do it because you can. You do it with intent. THAT is what you are all trying to do.
James Taylor... good lord. He hasn't had a hit since when? The last "revolution?"

I have to disagree

These performers should just shut up.

I am posting this on every thread about these concerts.

I have been a huge Bruce Springsteen fan for years. I've seen him ten times, have all of his albums, and over two dozen bootleg CDs and DVDs of his shows. One of his songs almost literally saved my life, it was the only thing that kept me going through a crippling depression. The CDs are all going in the trash today. When Bruce was young and stupid, he did the No Nukes shows and I didn't really care. But this is different. He is 55 years old and should know better.

After 9/11, the New York Times for over year ran its "Portraits of Grief" column spotlighting each person killed in the World Trade Center. A huge number of them were reported to be devoted Springsteen fans, especially many of the firefighters. They were not liberals. He is spitting on their graves and giving the finger to all of his blue-collar New Jersey fan base. It's despicable. Of all the performers that need to just shut up and sing, he is at the top of the list. He had too many fans that died on 9/11 and others that were personally affected by it. It's hard for me to fathom that he could be so dense as to not see this.

If he thinks this will not affect his career or his image, he is dumber than I thought. He has legions of fans that are going to be as pissed off as I am and will never support him again. He was booed heartily at the end of last year's tour for just a few mild comments against Bush. This is not going to go down well with his fans at all. The message boards on his website are practically melting down today.

If Springsteen comes to the Philadelphia area (I am moving there at the end of August) I will personally lead the FReep of his show and I will burn my Springsteen T-shirts.

I guess I'll have to miss the "Commies For Kerry" concert. (Or is that "Ba$tard$ Against Bush?")

Fortunately, I have no CDs of any of these bands listed that are participating in this nonsense. My only disappointment is that one of my favorite singers, Allison Krauss, did a duet a year or so ago with that jerk, James Taylor. Hopefully, that was just a brief mental lapse by Allison.
