So I thought this would make a good thread. Are there any artists that you don't buy because of something related to the personal artist?

For me, the only one I can think of is Amy Winehouse. After her dad asked the public not to buy her stuff until she kicks heroine I decided to honor that request....
If most musical artists parents made the same request and the buying public honoured those requests, not many people would be buying stuff.

Not being much of a Santana fan apart from his Woodstock era stuff, I`ve no idea what is political views are, what are they?
