«Kate Leahy» somewhere. (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:42pm) «Kate Leahy» yeah. that was annoying. (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:44pm) «Kate Leahy» yeah . . . it was a collaborative effort. A.J. and the Usual Suspects . . . Reiser, Rodney, etc. (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:44pm) «Kate Leahy» really nice tape, actually. (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:45pm) «Kate Leahy» yep! me and Cee were standing together and you can see our hair :). (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:45pm) «Kate Leahy» it's a shame politics kept people away . . . what a great show. "brown eyed girl" too! (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:46pm) «Kate Leahy» seriously, (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:46pm) «Kate Leahy» remember katrin and the toilet paper dispenser? (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:47pm) «Paul D. Beasi» i don't think it's a shame at all. they held the show to support a cause they believe in. why go if you don't believe in that cause? (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:47pm) «Kate Leahy» to see the music. i don't support the cause. i don't think it's a big deal . . . there's more to supporting a cause than money, IMO :). (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:48pm) «Kate Leahy» i mean, i can understand what would cause people to stay away . . . but they missed a great night of music, (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:48pm) «Kate Leahy» "to see the music." three weeks out of college and i'm already deteriorating. (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:48pm) «Paul D. Beasi» i just can't agree with that stance. it's hypocritical and an insult to the band. (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:49pm) «Kate Leahy» howso? (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:49pm) «Kate Leahy» i mean, technically, by buying any ticket or album or t-shirt, you're tacitly supporting one view or another. (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:50pm) «Paul D. Beasi» because, they reason they are holding that concert is to get people together who support their cause and to raise money for it (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:50pm) «Paul D. Beasi» so as long as they don't know, it's not an insult? (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:50pm) «Kate Leahy» i think it's a sticky situation . . . i don't think the band was expecting that only people who supported the cause to show. i think more likely they were (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:51pm) «Kate Leahy» hoping to expose their audience to an issue they supported -- and make money for it (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:51pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» /me is not really in this conversation, but i must say that i don't think the fruvous & friends for choice concert can be compared in any way to a corporate eve (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:52pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» event like live aid (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:52pm) «Kate Leahy» well, no. i didn't mean to imply so . . . (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:52pm) «Kate Leahy» oh, right. anyway. i paid to see the band. what they do with the money after that is their business. i'm sure fr�vous fans know that part of the money they (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:53pm) «Kate Leahy» spend on the band will go to jian's salary and that he supports a lot of things that some fans may not. (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:53pm) «Paul D. Beasi» well, i guess it shows ones priorities then. If missing a show of a band that one could (at that time) see a zillion times is worth supporting a cause you (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:54pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» even that is a HUGE thing, with many operating expenses. what expenses did the fruvous show have, seriously? (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:54pm) «Paul D. Beasi» don't believe in then so be it, i suppose. If it had been the other way around (a pro life show) I for one would not have gone (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:54pm) «Kate Leahy» i admire that paul. i do. but as a person who was in college then and *didn't* get to see the band a whole heck of a lot, i didn't want to miss out. (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:55pm) «Paul D. Beasi» well, then that was your choice. Seeing the band was more important to you than being pro-life. that is what you are saying, whether you care to admit to it (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:56pm) «Paul D. Beasi» or not (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:56pm) «Kate Leahy» that's rather unfair, paul. (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:56pm) «Kate Leahy» would you go to see a washington redskins game? (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:57pm) «Paul D. Beasi» i don't care what anyone's views are (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:58pm) «Paul D. Beasi» you can be pro choice, pro life, or pro whatever (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:58pm) «Kate Leahy» to be quite honest, that kind of logic could put every person here in a lot of moral trouble. maybe it does anyway. (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:58pm) «Paul D. Beasi» my original point was that it was no shame that people stayed away because of politics (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:59pm) «Paul D. Beasi» i admire the people who stayed away from supporting something they didn't believe in (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:59pm) «Paul D. Beasi» whether or not it was something i believe in (Jun 1, 2002 @ 11:59pm) «Kate Leahy» and my point was that there's a whole lot more to being pro-choice than buying concert tickets and more to being pro-life than not buying them. (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:00am) «Paul D. Beasi» it has nothing to even do with money, really (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:00am) «Paul D. Beasi» just symbolism. it was a pro-choice rally with bands playing (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:01am) «Melinda J. Beasi» i think you guys are seriously misreading his point, which seems pretty much to be that he admires people who stand up for what they believe in. period. (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:01am) «Kate Leahy» it's a matter of perspective. if you think that not going to a concert is an act of real testament to belief, that's fine. i just don't think it's a big deal. (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:01am) «Melinda J. Beasi» don't you? (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:01am) «bored, bored, bored....» /me wasn't there, so has no right to say anything, but...at least the band was honest about their intentions,were they not? So people could make their own (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:02am) «bored, bored, bored....» decisions based on personal ethics (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:02am) «Kate Leahy» well, i guess. though he made a pretty snarky comment about me caring more about a band than my beliefs. aside from that, sure. (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:02am) «Paul D. Beasi» absolutely (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:02am) «Melinda J. Beasi» i think giving money to a cause and going out in public to support it, even in a small way, is an admirable act. (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:02am) «I can see the bunny» I would agree with that Melinda... (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:03am) «Melinda J. Beasi» one man's snark is another man's honest opinion. or something like that. (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:03am) «Kate Leahy» lots of things are admirable. (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:04am) «I can see the bunny» actually wish I'd been a concert goer then instead of a hermit... (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:04am) «Kate Leahy» people do admirable things every day. (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:04am) «Melinda J. Beasi» me too, leanne. (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:04am) «Kate Leahy» well, no. but being a good parent is. so is being a good teacher. (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:05am) «Paul D. Beasi» i agree, stealing isn't admirable. and anyone who snuck into the show and didn't pay was very unadmirable (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:05am) «Kate Leahy» you don't have to write a check or carry a sign to be a person worth admiration. (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:05am) «Paul D. Beasi» way more so than paying but not honestly believing the cause (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:05am) «Paul D. Beasi» and i know people who snuck it (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:05am) «Melinda J. Beasi» i'm not following the point here. paul said the people who stayed away from the concert because of beliefs were to be respected for standing up for what they (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:06am) «Kate Leahy» paul said other things too (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:06am) «Melinda J. Beasi» believe in- he didn't say that nobody else should be respected, and that no other acts were admirable, and certainly neither did i. (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:06am) «Kate Leahy» like, that people who went and didn't support the cause were hypocrits (Jun 2, 2002 @ 12:06am) « Previous 100 entries | Next 100 entries »
