Tonight at a Def Leppard Concert |
|
There was a projection screen that had visual effects for each song. During a song called "Gods Of War" They showed Bush giving the middle finger 3 or 4 times. LOL!

They won't be invited to perform at future mtv movie awards shows anytime soon with an attitude like that!

3. Are they still touring? Talk about tenacious |
|
Why is it most of the anti-Bush stuff comes from older bands? I saw Queensryche not too long ago and they took quite a few sly swipes at the asshole in chief. Roger Waters released a song not too long ago that hammers Bush by name. Same thing he did to Daddy Bush on his Amused to Death album. While I was a little young to be a part of it, it seems like everyone making music during the Vietnam era was speaking out against the war. Now it seems the only modern bands taking their views public are Green Day and NiN. On the other hand I may be out of touch with new music.

5. Check out Tool and Use Your Illusion I by Guns and Roses |
|
I've got some lyrics here for you:
Choices have always been a problem for you, what you need is someone strong to guide you, deaf and blind and dumb and born to follow, what you need is someone strong to guide you, ...like me.
And, another set. . . (from Tool)
Everything you wear or hear or see on your TV is another product begging for your fat and dirty dollar, shut up and buy it.
Finally from GnR...
Most organized religions make a mockery of humanity Our goverments are dangerous and out of control The Garden of Eden is just another graveyard Said if they had someone to buy it Said I'm sure they'd sell my soul
Not to mention Queeensryche has a song called "Empire" which explains how exactly American "business" worked under Bush. The rest of the mash of today are a bunch of sellouts, not even trying to make a point.

"Pet"
Don't fret precious I'm here Step away from the window Go back to sleep
Lay your head down child I won't let the boogeyman come Counting bodies like sheep To the rhythm of the war drums Pay no mind to the rabble Pay no mind to the rabble Head down, go to sleep To the rhythm of the war drums
Pay no mind what other voices say They don't care about you Like I do Like I do Safe from pain and truth and choice and other poison devils See they don't give a fuck about you Like I do
Just stay with me Safe and ignorant Go back to sleep Go back to sleep
Lay your head down child I won't let the boogeyman come Count the bodies like sheep To the rhythm of the war drums Pay no mind to the rabble Pay no mind to the rabble Head down, go to sleep To the rhythm of the war drums
I'll be the one to protect you from Your enemies and all your demons I'll be the one to protect you from A will to survive and a voice of reason I'll be the one to protect you from Your enemies and your choices son One and the same I must isolate you Isolate and save you from yourself
Swayin to the rhythm of the new world order and Count the bodies like sheep To the rhythm of the war drum The boogeymen are coming The boogeymen are coming Keep your head down, go to sleep To the rhythm of a war drum
Stay with me Safe and ignorant Just stay with me Hold you and protect you from the other ones The evil ones Don't love you son Go back to sleep

I hope Joe and the Gang got through to one of Bushie's biggest supporters groups - many of whom happen to be the same age of most Def Leppard fans - that 30 to 45 demographic.
