My letter to Schubas Tavern.
To Whom It May Concern,
I just wanted to express concern regarding the recent string of Q101 sponsored events. In most cases, this radio station does not play or support these musicians as 88.7fm (wluw) or 89.3fm(wnur) does. In addition, although Schubas does not express a specific political ideology, many of the bands who have played Q101 events have more liberal and specifically anti war philosophies, which are apparent on the lyrics to their albums.
Please be aware that by allowing a Clear Channel station who willfully promotes army recruitment and has done so at several Chicago area events to sponsor these shows, Schubas is condoning and encouraging this practice and is also devaluing any important political statement a musician may be making.
If the person reading this is not the best person to receive it, please notify me a person that I may contact either via regular post or an alternate email address. I have been a patron of Schubas since I moved to Chicago four years ago. I would like to think your venue can demonstrate integrity in this area.
Thank you for your time,
(my full name)
