So maybe the good part (if there can be one) of the Raleigh situation will be to unload some excess baggage. For 25 years they have been socially conscious. It's part of why we (or just I) like them. We are not in this world alone. If you disagree with what they did..I'm sorry you feel that way. I'm sure the one's not affected have a different perspective than the one's that were. I had tickets to the show. I had to take vacation days. But, I have a son and want to do everything I can to show him the correct way to treat people and that sometimes doing the right thing means doing something that is not popular and may not be "fun". If anyone disagrees, then maybe PJ is "Not For You".

I hope you also teach your son not to procrastinate making difficult decisions. I hope you also teach your son to honor his commitments. There are lots of good lessons here.
I've disagreed with this band on about 90% of the issues...I mean really Ralph Nader? Ill continue to be a fan of the music because I can separate the two, but what they did to the fan base at the last minute was wrong
Cheers
Please don't let your son fall from that high horse.

Its not a matter of being 100% for them cancelling the show OR you hate gays and are not sensitive to others' rights.
It is possible to agree with the views AND think this was/is a lame move... WHILE still liking the band
