Pop/rock band Train (big hit "Hey, Soul Sister" among many others) has decided to 'wait and see' if they will still participate in the Boy Scouts Jamboree this summer due to the ongoing discrimination against gays in scouting. From the Train website:
"When we booked this show for the Boy Scouts of America we were not aware of any policy barring openly gay people from participation within the organization. Train strongly opposes any kind of policy that questions the equality of any American citizen. We have always seen the BSA as a great and noble organization. We look forward to participating in the Jamboree this summer, as long as they make the right decision before then."
Let's hear it for TRAIN! Let's hear it for the good guys!
And while we're 'hearing,' let's take a listen to their recent hit "Bruises."
