I mean I don’t think it’s that crazy that the people who bought tickets to see them are excited to be at their show
Yeah I like this album a heck of a lot. It’s a shame all the stuff that’s happening. Obviously the band’s art is far from the most important thing at stake here, but it feels like a waste of great art to see all these terrific artists throw it away with their choices. It’s discouraging to say the least. I hope it helps future artists to understand that their actions don’t just impact their victims and themselves, but also the music community as a whole.
Reading about fans blatantly disregarding his misconduct makes my brain want to explode. Wish this band would just go away.

That’s no surprise. Most people aren’t part of music forums. Most people don’t avidly follow a bands every move on social media. Most people don’t know the situation.
I’m pretty aware of it. I’m just saying there’s a reason they aren’t playing philly. I doubt they can find a venue to host them. You gotta wonder why that is. The scene here is pretty tight knit.
That post from the band is so gross. So, so gross. "Let's act all twee and cute and talk about pumpkin tortellini! Everything is great!" Another sad case of a man's life being ruined amirite.
