Her Show Canceled, Michelle Shocked Shows up at Moe's Anyway

Shocked, who wrote on a whiteboard, made a protest statement claiming that her side of the story about her reported gay rant in San Francisco two weeks ago, wasn't told.

Folk singer Michelle Shocked staged a sit-in at Moe's Alley on Thursday evening, the night of her canceled show. 

Check out the video of her bizarre performance, which included wearing white scrubs, putting a bag over her head and covering her mouth with a piece of duct tape that had the message "Silenced by Fear" scrawled on it.
