I really don't give a flip one way or the other - want to throw a concert? Fine have at it. Lots of local reports on the back story, we talked about it here, but this story does give a good recap.
But what songs do you play at an atheism-themed concert? Hip Hop, Rap, Country, Blues, Blue Grass - they all have "songs" and a following.
"................"There is no going back in to the `atheist closet,'" wrote Griffith, who has also organized a local chapter of Military Atheists and Secular Humanists for like-minded soldiers and veterans. "We're going to be supported on post for the first time."........................."
Or are they just going to get some popular bands playing popular music - and claim success?
