Ronstadt sucks musical dick. I would have hired Ozzy Osbourne.

From Drudge Report:
OZZY JOINS BUSH BASH WITH HITLER MONTAGE
Thu Jul 15 2004 11:38:38 ET

Osbourne opened his concert with the song "War Pigs," featuring a video portrait comparing Bush to Adolph Hitler.

The video featured Bush and Hitler on the same screen, with the caption: "Same sh*t different a**hole," says a source. Footage of bombs dropping and Hitler marching flashed as Ozzy screamed and guitars screeched.

Ozzy also flashed a picture of Bush with a clown nose, caption: 'The White House Circus."

get your head out, this has nothing to do with her being asked to leave.

A legal right has nothing to do with a legal right?

I would admit to her record, I just laughed at the thought that she be mentioned as "a top performer."
"Top vocalist" has now magically transformed into "top performer". Record sales speak louder than your opinion.

She just never comes up in conversations when someone says, "Ok, who is the top bands in the last 30 years..."

apples and oranges. Comparing what they did to her (as a private industry) to what the patriot act is, is not even similar.

Although I don't agree with the Aladdin's decision to hire Linda Ronstadt, I agree with their right to hire her. Although I don't agree with the Aladdin's reason for firing Linda Ronstadt, I agree with their right to fire her.

you seem more upset at the fact that noone likes Linda rather than the topic you started. hmmpphh.

what's funny is that I personally wouldn't of cared if I owned the casino, and actually I would of rather had OZZY there as well. I'm just defending the owners right to do what's within his rights. I'm crazy like that.

you're an extremist centrist. :grin:

personally I wish everyone (and that goes for Cons and Libs) would just relaxed and quit being so uptight.  Life's got to suck being that mad and stuffy all day.

Oh, My bad, sorry Mr. Anal Retentive. Hell at least I admitted she has a good track record, (Track record, of course, is a metaphor for her outstanding singing career.)

Thats why I found it funny to ME, ME, yes what I find funny reflects my environment and experiences. If you tried to have some of that, you may find you too have a sense of humor... Good luck with that!

Yet another false assumption. You are batting better than average today with 0 for 3. I do not own, nor have I ever owned a single Ronstadt CD, LP or 45 nor have I seen her in concert. You went off on a tangent with your normal ignorant and ill-researched blather and I corrected it. Get over it.

Both are legal acts. Is it that difficult for you to grok?

As a shroomery member, I will assume that you do, or have done, illegal substances. You CAN or could have been arrested for exercising your right to the guaranteed "pursuit of happiness".

You made the point that they had a right because it was legal as if all laws are inherently just and ethical. I concede and have never claimed that they did not have the law "on their side". That does not make it distasteful and inherently against the American ideal of Free Speech.

ouch, that hurts.  Show me how you guys whine because I think this would be an appropriate time to do it.:crying:

I find it hillarious that NONE of you think that the Casino has rights. And as i've said before: That says a lot about you people.  Take that any way you want to.  The only Blather

Please point out where anyone said that the Casino doesn't have any rights...

Or even where someone said that they don't have the SPECIFIC right to throw out anyone they choose...

Start a thread on S&P called "Does Swami have a sense of humor?" and find out for yourself.

first off, it's free spEEch.
Secondly, you may want to research that Bill you are touting. The first amendment. For instance, did you know one cannot state that he will kill the president? If this is done in front of Secret service or other law enforcement, that person can be arrested and charged, LEGALY.
Too, one cannot threaten anothers life, its called assault, not free speech. ONe cannot incite riots, or yell "FIRE" in a movie house....

I'm not debating if they are "legal" rights or not. One has to do with a private industry dictating what goes on within his/her establishment. The other does not. Is that hard for you to grok?

sure have, now you're drifting over la la land. let me know when you want to get back on topic.

point to me where I said that all laws are ethical?

Performers are "spokspersons" for the venue they are performming at. Apparantly those that are in charge at the Casino were expressing their freedom of speech by asking her to leave. Like I said, I really wouldn't give a shit, but i'm not that owner.

if you read the rest of the article you would see that
she practically incited a riot at the show.

If Ice Cube got up on stage at the Staples center and
started throwing up pyru, starting a melee in the venue,
I'd expect them to do the same thing...escort his ass out
of the building.

I don't see why these artists insist on injecting so much
of their politics into their shows...especially someone like
Rondstadt, an artist with barely a leg to stand on, doubly
so when you consider the venue...

shit, how many liberals are going to some second rate
casino show in vegas to see a third rate vocal act?

(I thought you detested anal retentiveness...) Believe it or not I was eating a peach as I typed that.  :grin:

The first amendment.
This is an incomplete thought and not a sentence.

For instance, did you know one cannot state that he will kill the president? If this is done in front of Secret service or other law enforcement, that person can be arrested and charged, LEGALY.
(Oh, you mean "legally".) Your ever-so-enlightening ramble does not pertain to praising and dedicating a song to a fellow American, now does it?  :rolleyes:
