Thanks for the input so far. It's important for me to see/hear others' perspective & opinion. It can (hopefully) help to back up my arguement/statement. I believe music has been a medium for political expression for DECADES. Like during that telethon after that NAFTA thing, when Kanyae said "George Bush doesn't like black people" on air. I just wonder how many people got interested in the situation based on his making that statement. Or when whats-her-face from the Dixie Chicks made her comments about Bush. These things affect our society. They create awareness because they have a voice thats being paid (not always) to be heard. Bands, song writers, they create work that sounds and speaks for a whole generation of voices. Music brings people together in a huge way, especially in terms of concerts. K, m done 4 now...
