Rock N Roll Treason:
Alice Cooper apparently [1]has little patience for all the rock bands
touring the country to encourage their listeners to vote against
President Bush. "To me, that's treason. . . . I call it treason
against rock 'n' roll because rock is the antithesis of politics. Rock
should never be in bed with politics." Cooper continues:
When I was a kid and my parents started talking about politics, I'd
run to my room and put on the Rolling Stones as loud as I could. So
when I see all these rock stars up there talking politics, it makes
me sick.
If you're listening to a rock star in order to get your information
on who to vote for, you're a bigger moron than they are. Why are we
rock stars? Because we're morons. We sleep all day, we play music
at night and very rarely do we sit around reading the Washington
Journal.
