Music Fans.. Spotify Instafest

In Manchester not so long back, missed them 😩

Did see them on their first tour in the UK, (92?) Cop Killer included in their set👍
I also missed them on that run. I’m sure it was around Download and either clashed or I just couldn’t justify the tickets.
Never seen them on their own shows but have seen them 2/3 times at download. They played cop killer the last time 🤘🏻
 
I mean, what’s the worst thing he’s done? (It’s a genuine question, not being facetious!)
I know he’s got some sh*t opinions but has he actually done any harm to anyone in the grand scheme of things that would stop his music being enjoyable?
I guess my mind just doesn’t work in that way, obviously I wouldn’t listen to LostProphets or something but I couldn’t not listen to music I like because I don’t agree with the artists politics, seems a bit stupid to me.
Are his outspoken, far-right, anti-immigration views not enough? If not, then the distain with which he treats both his ex Smiths band mates and also his current fans definitely adds more weight to my opinion of him. Considering the left-leaning politics of most members of this board, I just found it surprising to see that his latest album could be one of FMTTM's most listened to albums of the year.

Cracking songs tho.

It’s almost like we have some folks who can seperate politics from the music that they listen to.
 
First of the Gang to Die is one of the best songs of the early 00’s for me.

It’s one of the best songs of the entire ‘00s.


*Is it just me but I count the entire century as the ‘00s, not just up to 2010? If someone mentioned the ‘20s I’d assume they were talking about the 1920s.
