Brand New - Science Fiction (August 17, 2017) [ARCHIVED] Album • Page 1570

The people replying to Brian’s post that you can tell are just loving the drama are super annoying. The reaction gifs and stuff.

 

I don’t think I have ever been this sad about someone being a creep. It’s of course not the main issue, but I feel 100% deflated and sad about it. I was meant to be going out to celebrate something tonight but I just feel gone.

 

I'm not looking to help him. From what I have heard, from both these new allegations and past conversations I have personally had, its all bad news. His silence speaks volumes. There is no place in the the world for this bullshit.

 

I feel numb.

 

Why him? Of all people, why Jesse? I loved this band with every ounce of my being. I honestly don’t know how to feel.

I hope the victim is okay but I feel so sad and I know that is selfish...

 

what part of my post makes you think i want you to help jesse lmao?

yes, there is no place in this world for people soliciting nudes from minors. consensual hook ups, though? those rule

 

My band just literally played a 12 song Brand New cover set on Halloween, what the fuck

FUCK this band. All the respect and money and support I've given them over the years, the 25+ songs I've learned, it all came after the vocalist abused a child. It's all hollow now.

Maybe my weird gut feeling about the lyrics to "me vs Maradonna" when I was 13 were valid.

 

Just left the Bon Iver concert. Doing my best to go back and catch up. Read an Uproxx article.

Is this one person accusing? Do they have evidence?

It supposedly went on for that long? Jeez.

Has he had other rumors in the past of this behavior?

I don't know a lot about Jesse on a personal level.

 

Someone tell me this isn’t real

 

i don’t think i have ever been this upset about a musician ever.

 

Posting reaction gifs to events like this is literally 4chan tier behavior.

 

if you pressure someone into a hook up, that is not the same thing as a consensual hook up.

I am gonna bow out of this, but again I will say, I hope anyone else who may have had to put up with this in the past will come forward. I would not be surprised if when all of this is said and done that there are more people who have had this happen to them from Lacey.

 

I think it’s important that we defend the victim first and foremost. I also think it’s important that we don’t blame ourselves for Jesses mistakes just because we love brand new songs. We can’t beat ourselves up over information we received 12 hours ago.

 

Like what the fuck. Spent all of two weekends ago working on that damn cover set. Told all my friends it made me fall in love with Brand New and TDAG again. Can't even. So disgusted and disappointed.

 

right. nothing in your post indicated that he pressured someone into hooking up with him, though. your post was literally just that two people hooked up and you were like "hmmmmm" about it

 

Your initial post said nothing about Jesse using his influence. All you said was they “hooked up” after talking for a bit.

 

I am seeing BN in London next Saturday. I love this band so much but it’s tainted now. I am actually crying. Is that weird

 

Hi folks, hows it going?

 

Holy fucking shit

 

The way this story has spread so fast I wouldn't be surprised if their tour just gets cancelled.

 

I just found out. This is so fucked

 

ben had his own issues though as well

 

Your reaction is valid.

Lots of people upset about this. As long as we all come together and support the victim, there is nothing wrong with admitting how this is supremely disappointing.

 

Not great

Woman Accuses Jesse Lacey of Soliciting Nude Photos From Her at 15

 

This is terrible, really fucks me up.

I'd be insincere saying I can focus on this atm. Life been kicking my ass, but wow..... Didn't see this :( Brand New bee a badge of honor here (im from Long Island)..
