Godspeed You! International Terrorists?

Reported by ben

While making the trek from Fort Worth to St. Louis last week, our good friends from Canada, Godspeed You! Black Emperor stopped to get gas and attracted suspicion from a station attendant. They apparently looked a little too unsavory, so the attendant alerted police thinking they were terrorists. After having guns drawn on them by scores of police and FBI officers and hours of questioning, they were allowed to go on their merry way. God Bless America! Head over to their website for a live recording of the new song "Albanian." Look carefully. And finally, if you're planning on being in Europe between May 8th and June 7th, hit 'more' for their newly announced European dates.
