Wilco Calls Religious Freedom Restoration Act "Legal Discrimination," Cancels Indiana Show
You can add alt-rockers Wilco to the growing list of groups boycotting Indiana after Governor Mike Pence signed the discriminatory Religious Freedom Restoration Act, which allows citizens to refuse service to almost anyone if its on religious grounds.
"We are canceling our May 7 show at the Murat in Indianapolis," the band announced on its Facebook page today. "The 'Indiana Religious Freedom Restoration Act' feels like thinly disguised legal discrimination to us. [We] hope to get back to the Hoosier State someday soon, when this odious measure is repealed."
The band is offering refunds to fans who already purchased tickets.
