Wow, just wow! I'd love to see Sammy Hagar at the Rally.

Always fun to see who the conventions are bringing in for entertainment, and the details of where and when. Hit the links in the second paragraph here to get that-

RATM would be incredibly awesome, but since it's a family event, I doubt it. Anyone considered the Eagles? Are they pro-RP in any way?

 

[LibertyInJeopardy]

I'm not as optimistic as many of you that a superstar band will play. The delay in announcement says to me there are probably complications. We'll probably end up with the band in somebody's back up - back up plan.

Don (CFL Events Coordinator) has said that it is a major band, it was booked a while ago, and the only reason they are holding off on releasing who it is, is because it will sell out to fans immediately. They wanted to hold off a bit to give people a chance to find hotels, travel, etc, so that real CFL supporters get a chance to get tickets before it sells out.

In short, yes, there will be at least 1 more band that they haven't named yet.

http://rally.campaignforliberty.com/schedule/?id=10005&title=Rally for the Republic

"Internationally renowned musicians will headline the musical portion of the show. They will join NBC’s Tucker Carlson‚ Barry Goldwater Jr.‚ Gov. Gary Johnson‚ conservative stalwart Grover Norquist‚ former Reagan deputy Attorney General Bruce Fein‚ presidential historian Doug Wead‚ former Minnesota governor Jesse Ventura and many other special guests to be announced soon. Ron Paul is scheduled to speak at 7:00pm!"

Also, see the thread I linked to about 3 posts back.

edit: The musicians you listed are playing at the Ron Paul Nation Celebration: http://rally.campaignforliberty.com/schedule/?id=10003&title=Ron Paul Nation Celebration

RATM will NOT be playing at the Rally, they will be holding a concert at the Target Center the day after the rally. But the guitarist Tom Morrello has been playing with Steve Earle, also in the area, at Union Rally's, he could show up possibly.

Where did the idea that RATM is not family friendly come from??

if you wanna raise a bunch of lil tools, i could see how you might think that, but I really think its quite hypocritical for us to call them radical. they are performers, they put on a show.

I don't think the parent's would like their kids being subjected to , "this is our new fucking song", or "Are you ready to fucking oppose these oppressive motherfuckers!", or "Who wants to go throw rocks at the RNC windows and have our mob be displaced by tear gas and then complain about it to the media!"

I think it's unanimous they're not going to be playing at the rally because there will be kids there. Tom Morrello playing though is a different story, he hardly talks.

Or they may decide to do this again:

That pissed me off to no end at the time.

Yeah, they boycotted their own concert to protest Music Censorship and then they gave a free concert afterwords for disappointed fans.
