Most of them are so damn paper thin about it anyways. Of course there is some execptions, but I didn't really walk away from Rage Against The Machine either times wanting to overthrow my government... I was thinking "damn that was some badass music".

I saw Public Enemy live and it was bloody incredible, one of the best gigs i've been to, but Flav insisted on a 15 minute rant at the end of the gig about peace and love and war and trust and THEN I LOST COUNT. Also we had to put the peace sign up, my arm hurt.
I don't really mind the beliefs most bands have, truth is though it slows down a good gig and who wants that?
