These are the orgs that specifically ask performers NOT to cancel but rally support instead:

Equality NC: http://equalitync.org
Progress NC Action: http://www.progressncaction.org
NC NAACP: http://www.naacpnc.org
NC ACLU: http://www.acluofnorthcarolina.org

Notice anything about those two lists?

Which way do you think each member was leaning?



Man, if Bruce coughs, pearl jam catches a cold. They were always gonna cancel once he did.

It also sends an important preemptive measure to other states

I think Stip just justified carpet bombing in his relentless defense of Pearl Jam.

They knew they were doing this before today, Stip. I'm sure they decided to do it the moment Bruce did, but held out in hopes the law would not happen/get reversed/whatever. The deadline to announce this should have been Friday, not today.

you are likely correct
