I hope Kelly Curtis(PJ's manager/Pit Bull) is on the phone to the managers of the other bands and the EFF, coordinating some sort of legal recourse in answer to what seems to be a trend here. That is the only sort of thing that AT&T will understand, that will get through their thick skulls.

I will say that I find it highly unlikely that this was a decision made in the executive suites of AT&T. I suspect that this was something being done, in the service of a personal idealogy, by someone considerably farther down the food chain of production, who had access to the dump button, who took it upon him or herself to "do the patriotic thing" and in doing so, went way off the reservation and exposed AT&T to some real legal jeopardy.

AT&T should take this very seriously. The PR on this is abysmal and if it does go to legal guns, they should not underestimate the kung fu of music industry lawyers, for their chi is strong, they have The Iron Egg Discipline, and they fight just as dirty as you can imagine. Some young corporate lawyerin' buck will think he took a ride in a giant food processor, when they get done with him.

I think they should be censored. They're not getting paid for their opinions. It's their job is to play music, so they should play and keep their big pie hole's shut! Last thing I want to hear are the moral views of a bunch of heroin, meth heads. I would get fired if I used my job to express my political views, why should Pearl Jam be able too? Screw Pearl Jam, there music sucks any way.
