There is really no way around it besides to pick a music group that maybe only 5% of the community likes, which I hope they would never do. Its not like they are playing hollywood undead or something like that

Sure there are tons of killer robot movies, but there are also tons of fun family friendly robot movies, like Big Hero 6, The Iron Giant, I Robot, etc.
Maybe I'm showing signs of age when I say I'm not a huge fan of some of the messages in the music that kids listen to today. I'm not saying we need to have children's entertainers on stage, but I would hope that the choice of artists, and the song choices, would keep the junior high to high school target audience in mind.
I recall an awkward moment a few years ago when I was driving a friend's 14-year-old daughter somewhere. Lady Gaga's LoveGame came on the radio and the girl started singing along enthusiastically. Until she had an "oh.. wait" moment, went silent and turned crimson red. (For reference, I am a guy in my mid-30's).
