    Ticket holders will get their money back. His choice to not play and suffer whatever consequences. Boycotts though are generally not successful.

    I went to a John Denver concert at the Greek in L.A. I really
    liked his music, but between each song he ranted about his
    "Save the Whales", Greenpeace, and Liberal welfare needs.

    After 25 minutes of that, I got up and left.
    I have lost my mind. If found, please give it a snack and return it?

    Yeah, I only liked him in the beginning. Same with Elton Jane. When they were performers I could deal. When they started their political BS,, zip ...gone. Same with the Dixie Chicks. How stupid can you be to not understand your audience? They've been personna non grata in South Texas, where they are from and their fan base was since Natalie main opened her flytrap about Bush. They aren't even on the radio there anymore.

    You'd think they were part the RNC the way they self-destructed.
