And when it comes to controlling Hollywood or artists in general,

Big nail driven right here.

With more artists and movies espousing the conservative view of things, our circumstance might improve.

A quick glance around any mall will atest that 'artists' hold sway and their power goes unchecked and misunderstood by conservatives.

Sad to say that Paul Revere and the Raiders were the last to connect early American icona to popular culture.

"Sad to say that Paul Revere and the Raiders were the last to connect early American icona to popular culture."

As recently as last year, Paul and the Raiders, held performances to support our troops. He's a patriot and puts on a funny show. Their schtick is self-effacing and most times, spontaneous. Depending on the venue, they usually sell out their dates, with little to no promotion. The music and band's silly choreography are entertaining, and Paul's interspersed remarks are funny as hell.

If you get a chance to see them, it's money well spent...unlike some nostalgia groups. They play venues as small as nite clubs and as large as multi-thousand ticket fairs and concerts. They just enjoy what they do.
