Note to wacky morning radio shows: Don't mess with Rob Thomas. The Matchbox Twenty frontman has posted an open letter on the band's MySpace page ripping two deejays in Charlotte for criticizing the band when Thomas had to cancel an appearance due to food poisoning. "We are not precious; far from it, but we have worked hard over the last 15 years (always respectful of radio and all it’s given us,) and refuse to be publicly blackmailed."
