Taking names ...

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

We love our wonderfully diverse Philly music scene and don't want to see artists' privacy invaded or to give them any reason to skip our city altogether. If you're as outraged as we are, there's a lovely petition you can sign.

    Looks like a thread that belongs in AET or Other Music.

    I saw that as somewhat political, so I put it here. Thanks for setting me straight.

    No, my bad- I didn't see open the second link- the one with the petition. Philly is a great town and it looks like bill #160016 would do harm to it's music scene. I hope it doesn't pass. Good luck!
