Well, I'm old. I don't recognize any of the singers.

[cgk]

Major? Maybe I'm old. I've only heard of Stipe from R.E.M. and Chuck D.

[highlander_UW]

Ah...the cut and run crowd are sneaking back out from under their rocks.

Garafalo will broadcast her Air America Radio show "The Majority Report" live from the concert.

The live audience will be 5X her listening audience, and I'm being generous.

[Tim Long]

Define major. A bunch of libs jumping around whining about a war they don't understand.

[End Times Sentinel]

Just supportin' the troops, yall, don't call us traitors.

Major?

Well, an ant looks big to an amoeba...

[dfwgator]

[airborne]

And how many seats does the ballroom have?

[el_texicano]

"The Majority Report"???

In Janene's dreams...

[Hi Heels]

"R.E.M. frontman Michael Stipe, Bright Eyes, Rufus Wainwright, Fischerspooner, Public Enemy's Chuck D, Devendra Banhart and Peaches"

WHO?

[airborne]

I looked up the seating capacity.

Is 2,500 a "major anti-war concert"?

[dinoparty]

Nobody gives a rat's a** what these so-called "artists" think about the war. They just want to think that they are somehow important, and not just clowns who are paid to make people feel like bumping and grinding.

[Billthedrill]

Well, I had my doubts, but when I read that Devendra Banhart and Peaches were gonna be there...

Yeppers, it's Woodstock all over again. Don't touch the brown acid.

[lugsoul]

Holy crap - Stipe, Devendra Barnhart, and Bright Eyes?

If it weren't for Chuck D, there would be a SERIOUS testosterone deficiency in that room.

[Ticonderoga34]

Most people that will attend this concert will go just for the music, not the politics. Of course, the concert promoters will say proclaim the concert a major victory for the antiwar movement. Whatever.

[RetiredArmy]

Lucky me. Except for the homosexual former singer headlining this, I have never ever heard of one of these groups. Sounds like I am the winner here. Hope the bi**h enjoys rubbing all this in the memory of her honorable and hero soldier son. She is scum.

[soupcon]

If it's at the Hammerstein, it isn't a major concert.

[HitmanLV]

Hammerstein Ballroom? Welcome to Monday Night Raw!!!!!

ECW! ECW! ECW!!!

[goldstategop]

Liberals getting to replay their Joan Baez moment. They still haven't gotten over Vietnam. "Anti-war" concert, my ass.
