Matchbox 20 Don’t Like Cows
[?]
Matchbox 20 is canceling a show at Cheyenne Frontier Days, which bills itself as the world’s biggest outdoor rodeo, over their newfound concern for the animals involved. You would think that they wouldn’t schedule a show their since it’s a rodeo. The band’s front man Rob Thomas and his wife Marisol posted a statement on the band’s website regarding the matter. “We ask that (fans) please understand that it would be impossible for us to put ourselves in the position of making money from what we believe to be the mistreatment of animals.” Ironically, the band is still scheduled to perform at the North Dakota State Fair which also includes rodeo events.
