Did anyone in the room think to ask Carlos what he thought about Hitler, Mussolini or Stalin?
Or was it just another session of "Don't bogart that joint, my friend"...?

It just goes to show that you don't have to be a rocket scientist to play a mean guitar. :)

Any pop musician presumptuous enough to refer to himself as a shaman has a shallow grip on spirituality indeed. Carlos has been speaking of angels and whatnot for years, but his politics are strickly Haight Ashbury hippie socialism for the lazy. He's about half as informed as he fancies himself.
By the way, I love his guitar playing, but he should let smarter people dabble in geopolitics.

Santana wants to be
Jimmy Carter?
Santana was a leading rock guitarist in the 70s.
He probably has too many functioning brain cells to be Jimmy Carter.

as a guitarist and lover of Santana's playing, your post sums up my comments exactly. These artists are so ignorant about so many things its pathetic.

It's good to see that Carlos is still so impressed with himself.

too many years of smoking grass I fear ... I love his music, saw him live in 1982 and 1983, excellent show ... but recently he was advocating all the "pluses" of grass until some of his people shuffled him off stage rather quickly ... maybe not in Iraq, but if he were to play his music in the wrong Islamic country, they might order a jihad to stop the music ... the Taliban would ... perhaps he hasn't realized that ...

Santana probably won't tour the globe with all his guests, but one place he'd love to play is Baghdad. It's all part of his plan to unify the planet. What an EFFIN MOROON.
Maybe he should join Bill and Ted in Wyld Stallions.

Santana, I love your music but for gawd's sake SHUT UP AND PLAY YOUR GUITAR!

UGH, I used to like Santana.....until I went to his concert this summer and he spent half the time preaching to the audience how we shouldn't go to war with Iraq.

Out of all the responses on this thread so far...this was the best. Subtle yet right to the point.

Alex Lifeson plays circles around Carlos. Anyway, point is I listen to Rush for this very reason. They play their music and shut their mouths when it comes to this crap.
