Glenn Beck indirectly offered an opinion on his suspension from SiriusXM by linking to an article by Erick Erickson calling the satellite radio company cowards.

SiriusXM suspended Beck over comments made last week during his interview with fiction writer Brad Thor, in which the radio talker agreed with Thor’s suggestion that a patriot might have to step up to remove a potential President Donald Trump from power should Trump overstep his Constitutional authority and Congress refuse to impeach him.

I thought you meant Beck Hansen.

There's a real talent. No really. Just as long as I am deaf and blind with no sense of touch, I could really get into this guy's music. As to his political views: We are all entitled. It's called free speech. We live in a democracy. Not a totalitarian socialist state as many entertainers would apparently desire.
He probably wasn't getting ay plays anyway. This is his new "Meet the press" promotion.

I take it from your post that you are a hillary supporter, right? That's all good.

Amazing how a BandMix post gets diverted off topic by the first response.

"Slacker-

I think you need to change the title to Glen Beck............I also thought you were talking about Beck Hansen. This is a music forum so most people will associate that name w/ Hansen.
Just a suggestion. TIFWIW. "

Try doing that, I did-------------(As Yoda might say)

However you only get just so many letters and spaces in the subject bar. So when you do that the whole point of the caption is lost. And it was posted in the "General Chat (Non-Music-Related)" section whereas if it were about Beck Hansen I would have posted it in the "Music discussion" section. Once the link was clicked it shouldn't have taken too much time to register in the readers mind where and what the post was about.

Naturally, being a musician and learning to play think and compose on the fly, I believed that other musicians would also be brilliant enough to see within the first sentence that it was about Glen Beck as in the opening of the post where it says: .."Glenn Beck Breaks Silence, Links to Article Calling SiriusXM ‘Cowards’ "

Evidently I was mistaken in believing that all other musicians would also figure out that it was NOT about anyone other than Glen Beck. And the glaring caption above the post designating it was in the "General Chat (Non-Music-Related) would further solidify the readers detective skills. Silly me, my bad.

I sincerely apologize for over estimating the deductive powers and reading skills of my fellow musicos. : <---( Tongue in cheek sarcasm )

I thought it was Jeff Beck!

I thought it was Jeff Beck at first glance but I'm family with the story.

The guy with 2 turntables and a microphone is Beck Hanson?


Glen Beck is claiming that Drudge sabotaged him by proposing this was a veiled assassination threat....that wasn't.


I didn't hear it and don't know what to think...but it does seem open to speculation as that.

Wouldn't condone that for anyone in a free nation.

he's been on Austin City Limits.. quite entertaining imo

And the SOB had the nerve to diss Cobain after he committed suicide!!!

and i believe Windbag also claimed or certainly inferred that TOTO bassist Mike Porcaro O.D'd and said something like "who cares...another junkie musician dead, big deal".

porcaro actually died battling ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease)
