[Alice Cooper] says he was disgusted to learn the likes of Bruce Springsteen, John Mellencamp, R.E.M., Sheryl Crow, James Taylor and Dave Matthews were hitting the road for a series of concerts designed to help defeat President Bush.
"To me, that's treason," Cooper told the Canadian Press. "I call it treason against rock 'n' roll because rock is the antithesis of politics. Rock should never be in bed with politics."
...
"If you're listening to a rock star in order to get your information on who to vote for, you're a bigger moron than they are. Why are we rock stars? Because we're morons. We sleep all day, we play music at night and very rarely do we sit around reading the Washington Journal."
I think I'll go to a concert. Windsor's not that far; he'll be there September 28th. Thunder Bay, Ontario is pretty close! I was almost there the weekend before last. [OK, I admit that that is one of my favorite posts.] Highway 61 is no great prize for the driver, no matter what Bob Dylan says. Is the 8th of October on a weekend?
