I remember back in the 80s at one point REM was probably my favorite band......then Michael Stipe started opening his mouth.

Tom selleck is very current. I saw him recently on an interview and he said he doesn’t want to piss off half the country with politics. Good thinking. Even though he’s republican, we don’t need to hear from him. Blue bloods is excellent that’s evough Tom needed.

I still like The Nuge and Moses, this Trump guy is sort of familiar sounding.

never heard of most of the rest, are they important, somehow?

I don’t even know half of them. Perhaps I don’t watch enough TV.

Kirk Cameron???? What?? What did he do?

He's an Evangelical Christian. You know that Evangelical Christians want to turn the US into an Old Testament totalitarian theocratic dictatorship? Right?

Not unexpectedly, Ted Nugget’s response was musical in nature:

In 1986 some friends had an extra ticket to a band I never heard of. I went with them and it turned out to be REM.

Rosie O’Donut tried beating up on Tom Selleck for his support of the NRA.

REM was pretty good with “The One I Love” (don’t remember it, #9 at Billboard); “Losing My Religion” (#4) and “Stand” (#6 - liked this one a lot).

Mchael Stipe is a self-proclaimed Marxist of some kind. Hangs out with the “Music Marxist” re protests - Tom Moriello; Steve Earle; etc.

Sounds like me going to a Led Zeppelin concert and finding out some band called Jethro Tull was the warm up act.

: Janeane Garofalo - I’ve heard the name but couldn’t tell you what she’s famous for.

In Newton, New Jersey (it is rumored) she is famous for serving as a mattress for (almost) the entire high school football team...

I was reading a biography on the Grateful Dead, and back in the 60’s a radical would try to use the event for a political soapbox the band would have the offender physically and abruptly ejected. It was their P.A. and nobody was using it except them.

They were also HUGE sports fans.
