You can check out the thread in the gigs forum.
Music "not meant to be" political??? I don't think music was meant to be a-political. Music is meant to be whatever the musician intends, and even then it doesn't matter, because the listener will interpret it to mean something else.
Music can draw people to very important causes and political issues, and I am grateful for that - it gets people registered to vote, conscious about things they never would have known or cared about, and hopefully invigorated to make positive change.
