In a story first reported in the Chicago Sun Times, members of the Chicago Yachting Association complained to Chicago Park District officials on Wednesday, September 12, and asked Clear Channel to be more sensitive of the acts booked at the Northerly Island Charter One Pavilion.

Apparanetly rappers Snoop Dogg and Wu-Tang Clan both used very nasty words in their separate concerts on August 26 and September 2 at at the Northerly Island Charter One Pavilion. Snoop Dogg even said “f**k” and encouraged fans to “kill the police.”

The 5,000 strong Chicago Yachting Association was represented by Frank Gagliano (61) who remarked: “They have the right to say it, but they should go somewhere children don’t have to hear it.”

Parks Superintendent Timothy Mitchell told the Chicago-Times that he warned Clear Channel officials to be more conscious of the acts they book at the Charter One Pavilion, because of families that have children who live on their boats in the harbor. Said Mitchell: “When they were talking about Snoop Dogg, I thought they were talking about that little beagle that sits on top of the dog house in Peanuts,'’ Mitchell said.
