The bad vibrations from SeaWorld’s abuse of orcas are now reverberating throughout all its parks. The Beach Boys and husband/wife team Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo were slated to perform at Busch Gardens in Tampa. But as soon as they got wind of the fact that the park is owned by SeaWorld, they promptly canceled, wanting nothing to do with the abusement park.
