Well, it's time again, dear friends, for the nutties and fruitpies of the American Left to get together, smoke untold amounts of drugs, show their fealty and loyalty to America's enemies, and...oh, yeah: denounce President Bush, which is their recent favorite pastime.
Lineup set for anti-war concert
NEW YORK, N.Y., Feb. 23 (UPI) -- Anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan will be the guest of honor at the "Bring 'Em Home" concert at New York's Hammerstein Ballroom.
Among the performers scheduled to play March 20 are R.E.M. frontman Michael Stipe, Bright Eyes, Rufus Wainwright, Fischerspooner, Public Enemy's Chuck D, Devendra Banhart and Peaches, Billboard.com reported.
Sheehan will address the audience at the concert noting the third anniversary of the U.S. invasion of Iraq, Billboard said.
Janeane Garafalo will broadcast her Air America Radio show "The Majority Report" live from the concert.
Money raised by the show will go to Iraq Veterans Against the War and Veterans for Peace.
Wow! Chuck D will be there! Peaches (where's Herb?)! Devendra Banhart (whoever the fuck he/she is)! Bright Eyes! What talent!
And oh what a lineup! Next you will tell us that some major acts might even show up!
