rockin’ guantanamo
I was waiting for my slices and killing time reading David Schmader’s “Last Days” in “The Stranger” (‘Seattles Only Newspaper’) and came across this…
Apparently the usual suspects (REM, Pearl Jam, Etc.) are protesting Guantanamo Bay torture — but not the fact that they torture — the fact that they use MUSIC to torture. Like music is so precious and only comes out of God’s own asshole and ‘how dare they’ use it for torture or somesuch.
Among other things, these ‘artists’ demanded to know the names of the songs and artists used in the name of torture. Though I have yet to find a list, here are a few of the gems used to torture the inmates there:
+ Bruce Springsteen “Born in the USA”
+ Don McLean “American Pie”
+ Queen “We are the Champions”
+ Nine Inch Nails “March of the Pigs”
And my personal favorite —
+ Eminem “The Real Slim Shady” — one former prisoner told Human Right’s Watch that he was forced to listen to this piece of crap for 20 days straight! If I was even forced to listen to that song ONCE all the way through, I’d tell you anything you wanted to know…and many things you didn’t.
