"It's a bit patronising for us 21 year olds to try to start to change the world. Especially when we're using enough power for 10 houses just for (stage) lighting. It'd be a bit hypocritical. Someone asked us to give a quote about...[Global Warming] and it's like 'who cares what we think about what's happening'? There's more important people who can have an opinion. Why does it make us have an opinion because we're in a band?" - Arctic Monkeys drummer Matt Helders, explaining why the group is not on the bill at any of Al Gore's Global Warming charity concerts
There's quite a bit of wisdom and common sense in that statement.
