Music News

First I saw this story Rocking for Christ at CBS news. It is an interesting story about Third Day, Kanye West and P.O.D.'s Christian influence on the top music of today. I was surprised to see a story such as this in the MSM.



Then I saw the story about Jay-Z becoming the president of Def Jam Records at USA Today.



Then I saw a horrific headline at DRUDGE: NIGHTCLUB SLAUGHTER



Shortly after the band began playing its first song, a man apparently ran onto the stage and began shooting, according to a witness who identified himself as Sean. At first, some members of the audience may have thought the man running onto the stage with a gun was part of the band's act, WCMH reported.



Apparantly five have been killed, including the gunmen. What is wrong with people?



One thing that struck me about the quote was the part that said "some members of the audience may have thought the man running onto the stage with a gun was part of the band's act".



What kind of society do we live in where our first reaction to a scene such as this is that it's part of the "entertainment"?
