Last July, I was shoulder-to-shoulder with a bunch of sweaty rockers at the House of Blues on the Sunset Strip while they were complaining about needing a cigarette. We were all crammed in to see Alice Cooper and Ted Nugent blow the doors off the place. As everyone was grousing about the Los Angeles smoking ban, I could not help but chuckle to myself as I thought that if Johnny Ramone and Kid Rock joined them on stage, we would be at the one and only rock-n-roll Republican jam session.
Of course, everyone knows about all the Democrat rockers. Bruce Springsteen even wrote an op-ed piece for the New York Times. How is that for rock-n-roll? All the hipsters have signed up to do fundraising concerts for John Kerry because, uh, well, he is not George W. Bush. It has been speculated that these concerts will raise upwards of $44 million dollars for the Kerry/Edwards campaign — becoming the rather absurd situation of rich musicians raising money for even richer politicians.

Kerry Favorite song since the GOP Convention: I wanna be sedated.
I said that to a buddy the other day about ALGore...
That is just too F'n Funny. Teddy never looked better.
You really made my afternoon. It makes the office a little brighter when I can have a good laugh like that.
I am surrounded by libs here at work. I have hide in my area to listen to Hannity and Freep while I am here.
I was cracking up when I saw that one. Pinhead Teddy with his big fat mouth, and Al franken with the big p*nis on his head! lol!!

I don't have a lot of autographs but I did get the Ramones to sign a blank white innnersleeve of the Rock n Roll High School album at a record store signing almost 25 years ago now. Time is flying.
