Accountability in Music • Page 348

I stand by everything I’ve said. Tiny Engines, and game freak, fucked up.

 

Yes king!!!!! THIS!!!!!!!!!!!! Everyone should read this................

 

But really, you're describing Gen V, which everyone hated, so I don't think your view is very coherent with gamefreak's conception of what people like

 

1. This is what everyone in the Pokémon thread said, my post here is much more liked cause less people know what they’re talking about in Pokémon
2. Gen V was sick and one of my favorites

 

This is great action - just wanted to point out in as nice a way as possible that Stevie uses the pronoun they/them

 

Thank you, edited my post to reflect correct pronoun usage

 

Two years ago today Brand New became dead to me.

 

happy anniversary of a profoundly traumatic day for me, how about we never note this again

 

Ah yes, I definitely want to commemorate the day I *checks notes* entered a severe depressive episode where I couldn’t stop thinking about being molested as a child for like a month straight.

also just wondering, are you better than me because you haven’t listened to them since that day and I have listened to them a ton the past couple weeks or?

 

This seems like a good way to address some of the touring issues we've discussed in here

 

So, so many issues would be solved just by doing this very simple thing.

 

Kristen Stewart Has A Pinegrove Tattoo I don’t know if this belongs here, but how popular this band continues to get just makes me feel hopeless

 

Man

 

Tried to tell the world.

 

Can also vouch for how awful that man is.

 

I don't even get what he's trying to say. Like, sorry these bands didn't want to be on your stupid festival, but it's not about them being in "their little community" (whatever that means), it's that you are pissed these bands never wanted to be a part of your festival. Plain and simple. These bands never needed Warped. These bands are headlining fairly large rooms now (and Modern Baseball was set to on their tour they were set to embark on before their hiatus). They are doing fine without Warped. They also can tour with whoever they want and associate/not associate with whomever they choose.

Also, on the subject of Warped... Attila's Chris Fronzak Has a Plan to Resurrect Warped Tour

Fronz can shut the fuck up anytime now. I don't care how good his business idea is, let this fucking terrible music festival die and let it never see the light of day ever again.

 

Also:

 

“Little community”

I just think some bands didn’t want to be associated with that shitty fucking tour. And hearing from people that it might come back next year under something/someone else makes me want to puke.

 

The only good Warped has been of the Crash Bandicoot variety

 

Lyman’s comments read like a Trump quote to me.

 

None of the bands mentioned there have “shot themselves in the foot” by not doing Warped. What is this twitter rando even saying.

 

Touché Amoré was playing SlamDunk this year and it's basically the UK's version of Warped Tour, with all its issues (old dudes behaving like shit, drunk minors, shady afterparties, minors being invited to the VIP area, etc). I love the band but let's be coherent for a minute.

 

that's not really the point though, is it?

 

Lyman is an asshole and it's probably a good thing that Warped Tour is dead (never been, I'm in Europe, so...), but refusing to be associated with a festival for "ideological" reasons and playing its spiritual successor is weird, it's all I'm saying.
