I'm not arguing (for the love of God I'm not so don't start in).
I remember the whole Tipper Gore, Twisted Sister thing...but I don't think they banned anything. Freedom of speech and expression came in to play.
That was the case that caused the warning labels to be put on cd's with questionable material, if I'm not mistaken.

Yes you are correct...but since you asked (and no I am not being smart aleky) do a lil google reseach around the web...you will be surprised.
Heck even Elvis was banned in some localities back in the day for lewdness
Oh and BTW remember the Dixie Chix got banned for anti Bush lyrics. (I stand corrected...they were banned by thier company...not the gov't...however thier ban caused a senate hearing to be convened to see if what happened was legal)

what I will say tho...is that there are many other countries that have a heavier stance towards banning US artists and thier performance of their music in thier country...
