that would be like me saying "i hate germany because there were
nazis there once so i wont go there". its stupid and doesnt make
any sense.
>come, or don't. each might help/hurt equally, who can say. i tend
to think taking a political stand when something is wrong might
have a more far-reaching impact than coming over and giving a few
dozen people a fun night (though maybe that would help make the
music scene more vibrant etc). but i dunno. it's obviously a big
f$#^$# hassle to come play the u.s. these days, whether it's worth
it or not to go thru it is a personal decision. imo no-one can
else can second-guess it
danny wang in an interview online posted about why he went and
played music in israel depite disagreeing entirely with their
policy towards the palestinian people. and i agreed wholeheartedly
with him and i still feel the same way. its more important to
spread the love than to punish people for policies they may or may
not even agree with.
