Has anyone heard about this? I've heard Bruce Springsteen getting lots of shit for doing this. I myself am happy that I live in a battleground state, which is where these artists are going to be focused for about a week in early October. I was excited to see that Pearl Jam and Death Cab For Cutie are playing less than ten miles from where I live. On the same day in my state (Michigan) Bruce Springsteen, R.E.M., John Mellencamp, Bonnie Raitt and, I think, James Taylor are playing in various cities.
It must be rough for people who want to see these people but don't like where their money would go (to help unseat Bush).
