[goymz]

Chuck D of the rap group Public Enemy has agreed to perform at a concert protesting against the Iraq War in New York.

Chuck D will unite with musicians from all walks of the industry, including Michael Stipe: front-man for REM. The event has been named Bring Em Home Now! and will be held at the Hammerstein Ballroom March 20th – the third anniversary of the invasion of Iraq.

Carey Spooner of Fischerspooner said "It is impossible not react to the current state of affairs through personal action and artistic production."

The musical event will be followed up by a national speaking tour that will have various authors traveling to fifteen different American cities in April.

More performers are expected to announce their attendance.

I’m not really a bush enthusiast.

However there possibly is more to the war then we think. The media or the people may not know the true intentions or purpose yet. Hopefully the war is for some good but like others, I have a lot of mixed feelings about it.

Not much good has come out in the past 3 years, more of these events should be held and ppl should be makin more noise to try n stop this bullshit war.
