'I'm the voice that they don't have': Woman behind Twitter crusade against Hedley breaks silence
Fans still support Hedley in face of allegations

Jacob Hoggard Statement

 

Who gives a fuck if mark smiled I don't get it

 

The situation regarding Jesse Lacey and the victims has nothing to do with TBS though. Maybe they did have second hand knowledge, but it is an absolutely bad look for any of them to insert themselves into the discussion in light of the allegations just to post smiley emojis or grin. It's like they're taking some sort of moral high ground over those over anyone who continued to listen to/support the band which, again, is not a good look when victims are sharing their deeply personal stories about Lacey and the TBS bro think it's even remotely appropriate to jump in the way he did.

 

If I remember correctly, and I may not be, at least one member of TBS has or had a personal relationship with one of JL's victims.

 

I think we're talking about different things here? I was referring to one of the members of TBS posting a winky/smiley whatever face on facebook directly on the victim's post that started everything iirc

Coule be wrong but I wasn't referring to anyone being happy he got called out at a show

 

I was under the impression that Eddie and the first victim knew each other. I read it as him being happy she was coming forward. But that could be wrong.

 

Nothing regarding TBS matters at all why even talk about it

 

yeppppp

 

That's like, what the majority of this website has done though

 

I know this is for a good cause, but YIKES.

 

"so like i know i'm in a band that is complicit in abuse and all but here are some songs enjoy hehe ^.^"

what the actual fuck

 

I audibly gagged when I saw the tweet. Didn't even realize I still followed the guy on Twitter.

 

dudes in this scene will never fail to astound me with their lack of self awareness

 

What band is that person in?

 

moose blood

correction: he's the member who was kicked out a year ago for sending unsolicited nudes. lmfao

 

Oh wow. Put that one in the books for most hollow good deed ever

 

Taake officially cancel tour, address Talib Kweli and “witch hunts” in statement

holy shit lol

 

"This cancellation is unfortunate in many ways, not just for the bands who were going to take part. Not just for the ordinary working Americans with families to support and bills to pay who have lost much needed income because of it. Not just for the fans who wanted to see the bands. Not just for music fans in general. But, also, and more importantly, for America as a whole."

These guys are gonna play the RNC aren't they?

 

Christ. This...isn't a good statement. Edgelords gotta stay edgy, I guess. Maybe you should have realized it wasn't a good idea to paint a swastika on your chest in GERMANY if you didn't want to be held accountable for it at a later date.

With that being said, it's interesting this is happening now when he's toured the US at least twice in the last few years without a peep about it. Seems the political landscape really did shift a lot.

 

This dumb ass nazi compared his nazi ass band not being booked to black jazz artists not getting booked back in the day lol

 

I think Talib Kweli taking a stand brought more attention to it

 

nah it was getting buzz beforehand because antifa groups were already getting shows cancelled, talib only made the comments because this was a big topic

 

ah that was how I heard about it so I assumed

 

Re: The Taake tour cancellation. This encapsulates it well.

 

Are you or do you just wanna sell t-shirts?
