It changes how I feel about them because I refuse to support people that don’t hold the same morals as me.

I’m not saying they can’t perform here, just that their actions have consequences and they have to deal with that.

Does it matter in the grand schema of things? Not at all, but I know what my beliefs are and where I want to put my money.

Perhaps one day there will be a line that is over your moral boundary and I would support your right to make that choice.

Oh, I do the same for other things and didnt mean to imply you should do anything differently, everyone has their "line". I'm just saying maybe you dont have to throw out the baby with the bathwater. The Foo Fighters, particularly Dave Grohl, are some of the more humanitarian artists out there. Dave himself routinely puts on BBQs to feed the homeless. So considering your comment about actions having consequences, they've earned a little bit of wiggle room in my eyes.

But regardless, I respect ypur opinion and enjoy your weekend!
