NOFX Release Statement After Being Giant Assholes

Hot take: NOFX has never been funny.

 

Even the statement is shitty

 

How stupid do you have to be to not have the foresight to know not to make fun of a mass shooting?

 

Stupid enough to still insist on being lowest hanging fruit edge lords on stage well into your 40's.

 

They say a bunch of shit all the time, but thats no excuse. This is even low for them. The apology was half assed too. They truly do everything at 60%.

I just bought a six pack of the PID beer over the weekend too. I don’t blame Stone for axing them right away. Good job, Stone.

 

50's...I went to PunkInDrublic in Pittsburgh. It was a great event and a great time but I pretty much left after Bad Religion cause I have very little interest in NOFX since post 2004.
NOFX have made some great music and Mike's label is amazing but there is just no excusing these statements.

 

The most hilarious thing is them getting booted from their own festival and the replacements making the lineup ten times better than it was to begin with.

 

Done with this band.

 

Genuine question: what's wrong about it? The statement is extremely short but they implied that they were going to carefully flesh out a better, longer apology. They admitted they were wrong and didn't justify it in any way. BTW I'm not a fan of the band in any way and it was incredibly brainless for them to say that stuff. You can argue that people should boycott them or they should retire or something, but I think if I had to switch bodies with one of them and needed to make an apology, I would say a quick apology like this too and think of a more comprehensive apology ASAP.

 

Fucking assholes.

 

They always have been, and it was bound to catch up with them. They've gotten away with stuff before because their comments often only alienated one section of their audience (e.g. about religion), but this was universally cruel and insensitive.

 

They always kinda have been though....

 

Fat Mike has always been a douche.

 

Something about the saying they’re going to get together to write a sincere apology instead of just doing that rubs me the wrong way

 

The statement from the Brewery is badass. Good on them for the way they handled it 100%.

 

They usually say messed up shit, and that's the whole trick with their show... Kind of like blink-182, and the sex jokes they would make.

However, this is too far, even for them (or punk rock). I can't help noticing that a lot of people are making easily avoidable stupid mistakes lately. I'm genuinely wondering why stuff like this keeps happening?

 

The song She's Nubs is the first and last time NOFX gave me a warm chuckle.

 

Idiots. Stone is a great brewery and so is their response to this.

 

I feel like bands (and entertainers in general) like this just have such a hard time adapting. In the 90s/00s, comments like this were expected, and were basically the whole appeal for NOFX. Now, it's just the opposite - they're losing fans for the same antics that they gained them with earlier in their careers.

I've never liked the band, because I never liked this sort of thing. But I understand why they'd say this kind of shit in 2018; they did every year before that too.

 

my theory is that After the 2016 election all of our brains broke

 

Great now some jerkoff is gonna see shooting up a punk show as an achievement that hasn't been attained. I honestly worry about this shit. I'm already scared to go anywhere with large crowds anymore. I have constant nightmares about this shit. Ever since my brother was at NIU when that fucker shot it up in 2008.

I'm not mad at NoFx, its just a shitty thing to say. Time/Tragedy seems to be an artistic license anymore. Maybe we are too desensitized and it's sad

 

This site wouldnt even exist without this band. good for them. the rest of you can hide in your safe space. Its called a bad joke. im sure fat mike doesnt want people dead...shake your head and move on with ur life.

 

Fuck off

 

Band blows....douchebags
