I wish them luck. You think Chevron going after people's e-mails and such was bad, wait till you see the Russian government's reaction to interference with THEIR oil/gas industry.

They are going to need all the support they can get.

Especially considering they have bandmates in jail just for expressing themselves.

Free them on the grounds that nobody with such a cool band name should be imprisoned for practicing their art.
