Hynde rages and rules at Warfield (traitor gag and puke alert)

CONTRA COSTA TIMES ^ | Mar. 03, 2003 | TONY HICKS

SOME MIGHT THINK that by 2003, a Pretenders concert would have evolved into your basic, run-of-the-mill, classic rock show.

That's a good one.

Saturday's show at the Warfield in San Francisco a Pretenders concert, but it was really the in-your-face Chrissie Hynde show in every way, shape and form.

[robowombat]

Chrissie Hynde a name to live in infamy and one who merits vigorous freeping as the mildest thing to happen to her.

[muir_redwoods]

"Pretenders" is a very appropriate name for this noise-maker. This ugly scum-sucking loser is a living (?) example of the truth that all it takes to succeed in popular music is a willingness to play at full volume and go paws-up for the right people.

"Paws-up" is particularly apt for this dog.

I'm going to protest Chrissy Hynde and her ilk by:

• Downloading MP3s of her music with KaZaA Lite;
• Copying it onto CD-Rs; and
• Burning the CD-Rs in a fire!

[Laura Earl]

Another washed up never was starving for attention.

[GSWarrior]

Why waste perfectly good CD-Rs on her?

[SoDak]

Well, I own quite a few Pretender's cd's and really enjoy her music, and plan to keep them. Agreed though, her politics are awful, and really pretty much traiterous.

[John Lenin]

This ignorant bitch needs to move to an Islamic hellhole.

[Little Ms. FReepette]

Just another anti-American scum of the earth...

This ignorant bitch needs to move to an Islamic hellhole. ...NOPE, she would probably enjoy it too much.

[I_Love_My_Husband]

I saw the crowd outside the Warfield. There wasn't a lot of people and it was the gray hairs and men wearing long gray hippie braids.

Gross!

[Stultis]

I saw the crowd outside the Warfield. There wasn't a lot of people...

Bingo! This is why the bitch is running her yap. Publicity.

[I_Love_My_Husband]

...She nearly picked a fight ...

That's why she's also a typical commie hypocrite. Peace activists shouldn't be picking fights if they truly believe in peace, which she obviously doesn't.

[SeenTheLight]

I hope the Muslims win!"

Be careful what you wish for Chrissie. That is, unless you like wearing a burqa.

I always liked The Pretenders music, but this is nauseating. What can't "artists" just shut up and do what they're good at?

[Newbomb Turk]

She would make a great feminista. She is fugly.

[little-e]

To each his own I guess.....Personally, I don't think Hynd-end can sing....I am a Norah Jones fan myself.....

[KneelBeforeZod]

Not just the dixie chicks suck bump

[MarMema]

Send her to an islamic country for life.

[Movemout]

The minute she was dropped into a Muslim society for good she would disappear. Her bones would reveal that she had been struck by a number of blunt objects, probably stones. No Arabic male would tolerate her foul opinion more than seconds.

[MarylandPines]

The only song of theirs I have is "My City Was Gone", and for the obvious reason: It's the theme for Rush's show. Even at that, I have it on MP3, downloaded for free off of Kazaa.

[SolutionsOnly]

some things are just so far over the top that they don't don't deserve any attention. This is an example of that. Only the completely whacked will give credence to this nonsense.

It's the ones who can influence the ignorant who warrant the focus of our limited energies.

Like the Dixie Chicks, Mike Farrell, Martin Sheen, Bill Clinton...
