oy, The Sound jumps of the "Vote Em ALL Out!" bandwagon.   I understand,  much of their audience is made of hard rockin' meatheads.

not sure how you're getting that from the songlist -- it seems a plea to "get together" and "work it out". They could've easily done a "politicians suck" set, but they didn't.

it's the Repub's fault, not something that both parties share equally, which is what sets like this imply. 

Yeah, I get it -- it's just RnR and not a news report, and it's a theme that everyone can relate to (Oh, that Congress, I tell ya!)  What is Larry Morgan realistically going to do except play it evenly down the middle?

As far as sets go, it's perfectly fine and the music is good, yadda yadda, but most media outlets are reporting on the issue in neutral terms, and it's not a neutral issue.  Here's a great piece on it >>

Judging by polls, the public got it.
