"Musicians join with antiwar group"
Excerpts from cnn.com...(Feb 27th) A varied group of musicians — from Russell Simmons to Lou Reed — have joined forces with the antiwar group Win Without War to voice their continuing disenchantment with the Bush administration's policy on Iraq... ooooh they're disenchanted (with their CD sales?) "I remember the Cuban missile crisis. That was right off our shore. We didn't go to war then," said classic musician Lou Reed, What enlightening historical analysis Lou! [Def Jam Recordings founder Russell Simmons] said "Puffy is certainly more well-liked and well-known across the world than George Bush" and "Jay-Z is much more liked and well-known across the world than Colin Powell."... Well blow me down! Send them to the UNSC! Puffy for president! The group didn't give specifics on what they plan to do to voice their protest... Waiting for the drugs to wear off? "We are threatened as Americans because of the way our president carries himself," Simmons said. "He's the biggest threat in the world." He added, "Don't misunderstand me"... Oh you're understood perfectly. The group provided a long list of musicians who are taking part... Oh yeah? Where can I find it? So I know which CDs not to buy. Posted by: RW 2003-02-28 |
