Comments: I was thinking about bands like (the former) Rage Against the Machine, how they stopped trading for a day or something, how they are "anti-capitalist? or anti globalisation?" - but yet they are (were) signed up with Sony... contradiction...?

Comments: "Music expresses that which cannot be put into words and that which cannot remain silent." Music (not just rock & roll) is so spiritual, to NOT use any talent to promote a social cause to make the world better is a crime. You can do this withOUT being famous.

Comments: I think it's really cool. Why not use their visibility and influence to help something they believe in?

Comments: It is about time that bands start standing for something besides sex, drugs and rock n roll. When a band makes a stand it shows the world that they are more than a bunch of drugged out losers.

Comments: There is nothing worst than some rock star spouting off about social or political issues. There have been many celebs that I once liked but once they forgot they were entertainers and become politicians I stop enjoying them and started resenting them. they should keep their mouths shut and do their job, and support their causes in private
