| Another Naked Protest |
 1 Apr 2003 @ 12:19, by Letecia LaysonJulieposted an article that made me laugh today "Nudes Continue to Seize the Day!"" Banned Members In Naked Protest A Somerset band who were denied a prestigious Radio 3 World Music Award because of their anti-war views, stormed the stage to launch a naked protest at The Ocean in London last night. Two members and one supporter of the radical British folk-band Seize The Day, stripped off and climbed onto the stage as applause for the final act of the night ended. Their bodies were hidden at first with signs reading "BBC Cover-Up", before they went "the full Monty", to excited cheers from the 1000 strong audience. The slogan "Peace Not War" was written across their chests. Seize The Day polled the most on-line votes in the Radio 3 "Audience Awards" category, but were disqualified without warning after Radio 3 Executives realised they might express their anti-war believes in song at the ceremony. I had the pleasure of seeing them perform at The Goddess Conference in Glastonbury, England last summer.
