Eels have extended an invitation to President George W.Bush for their upcoming performance on March 29th in Washington DC. The band explained the invitation in an open letter:
My name is Mark Oliver Everett. I am the singer in an American rock band called EELS You may recall using our album “Daisies of the Galaxy” as an example during your campaign for the presidency in 2000 The album was supposed to be a bad example for the kids of America.
I know that you’re a Christian, and Christ taught forgiveness. So in the spirit of forgiveness and fence-mending, I’d like to let bygones be bygones and invite you and the First Lady to attend our Washington, DC concert, March 29th lt’s right down the road from you at the Sixth & | Historic Synagogue.
Way back in 2000, Bush explicitly condemned Eels saying (through a spokesman):
America’s parents can’t count on Al Gore to protect their kids from Hollywood’s inappropriate marketing practices, If the Democrats didn’t stop Dreamworks from handing out a CD with explicit lyrics at a convention under their control, why will they stop Hollywood from marketing the same material to children at other venues?
