With all due respect Willie-O, it sounds like you are having a bit of a knee-jerk reaction. NO ONE suggested banning John Fogarty. There is a huge difference between a radio host giving some thought before playing a song and being told that something is banned. Whether you agree with the choice of the host is your opinion, but don't take it to extreme. You would not want someone to get upset with you if you choose not to play "My Heart Will Go On". Freedom of choice works both ways.

I agree, John Fogarty captures the spirit of the region. One of the bands played his tune on the recent televised benefit (unless you saw a different benefit show, the "Shelter From the Storm" benefit did not feature Fogarty as far as I know.)
