So, in spirit of these tours for a cause...Obama seems to be the leading influence these days. Word on the street (or on Pitchfork) is that now, groups such as the Beastie Boys, Vampire Weekend and even the Black Keys are joining for concerts either supporting Obama or supporting the Democratic party. I think it's ridiculous how active so many members of the music industry are getting over politics. Vietnam had protests, we have concerts.

And how about The Foo Fighters getting mad that McCain has been using "My Hero" without permission. You know, I bet there are many musicians out there who support McCain... just not the Foo Fighters.
