"Not only will they never get a favor from me again, they do not have Bulldog immunity.”
Is this something I would have to have a bulldogovision to know about?
More seriously, doesn’t this make it obvious that the structure of authoritarianism is really just a small collection of powerful people? They’re not an unstoppable force. They’re weaker than they look.
I looked bulldog immunity up on ddg and urban dictionary and found nothing. Maybe deters’ bulldogs will no longer consider those people unthreatening?
But there’s a huge difference in how intimidating bulldogs are and my default mental “bulldog” is a French bulldog or [inaccurately, but I definitely still picture it] Boston terrier, so I’d be more worried about them if I had a piece of cheese on me.
Who would want to pay $1000 to be close enough to Kid Rock to smell the cigarette smoke and beer sweat?
Is this the same one as last time? I feel like I’ve read this headline like five times. Are they still trying to make this happen?
Mid Rock is still trying.
The last one was the Rock the Country tour that had his major SC event cancelled but continues to go on, though ticket sales are pretty weak apparently with them now offering tickets at half price and here’s the list of bands you can make fun/boycott for continuing being horrible human beings, and yes Nickelback is on there.
Always disappointing to be reminded that the husk of Lynyrd Skynyrd is still out there making a mockery of their legacy. There’s a good chance the original band, releasing their music today, would be labeled as woke. What with the anti-drug, anti-gun, and anti-racism themes.
Aha what is Nelly doing in there
Nelly was a bit MAGA curious during Trump’s first term from what I can remember back in STL and then went full MAGA this term when he played at Trump’s inauguration.
And yet they claim to hate cancel culture, curious!
I hope when the Trump Titanic finally sinks it sucks all these fuckwits to the bottom of the sea.
Jerk is surprised that the jerks he hangs out with won’t go to his jerk festival because, unbelievable as it is, they turn out to be jerks.
Wow.
who wants to see a bipedal weasel sing terrible songs? bad idea for a musical act
hey that’s not a weasel weasel that’s kid robert. i want my $20 back
Golly, check out that first link in the article, the one with the text “Eric Deters.”
Oh man I was really hoping for this to be a failure as it was happening so I could see it, not a failure before it even started. Oh well thanks for the laughs anyway conservatives!
DON CHA WANNA GO DOOOOWN!
I wonder if half the problem is that the line up didn’t ever change. I imagine the pool of musicians to choose from here is pretty small. Who wants to see Kid Rock 4 years in a row?
maga starting to realize that russian bots in comment sections don’t attend rallies/concerts/festivals.
I doubt it.
Maga voted to be poor.
And fortunately, they got what they voted for.
We all got what they voted for.
And fortunately, they got what they voted for.
Except that we all suffer.
Still owned the libs FML
Crabs gonna crab
When it comes to music, that’s not even just a MAGA problem. There’s a lot of artists lately that have been cancelling tours when they booked stadiums, not realizing that clicks don’t necessarily mean ticket sales.
I mean, shitty tickets are like $300 a piece now. I have more disposable income than the average person in my demographic and I’m not paying that much for 2 hours of entertainment.
That depends entirely on who you’re seeing and where. I was just at a show where tickets were around $50.
Sure, but the kinds of bands selling tickets for $50 don’t get articles like this written about them. They get a passing mention in some kind of local media.
you would be surprised who sells $50 tickets.
I saw ben folds five for $20. you just have to know where to look.
In 2006 I saw Dropkick Murphy, The Tossers, The Horror Pops, and a couple of other bands for like $35. That was a good deal.
Doesn’t help when an entire show gets bought by scalpers or just has absurd prices from the start. A couple decades back I would go to big festival style shows for less than $100, now it costs $300 for a balcony seat behind a pole.
Meanwhile Ed Sheeran is desperate for an opener and backing band
Maybe they could get Ed Sheeran to join, in an effort to boost the appeal.
And pink
What did Pink do? Fuck getting old is playing racis bingo with the celebs or fuckken what?
Zionist. Said it gets lonely defending Israel or some shit like that.
and the proclaimers
Is shitty politics the last resort of musical artists that have faded into irrelevance?
Their 500 miles was not from a river to a sea it seems.
I’m out of the loop on them so tried to look it up; did they back the genocide of the Palestinians or are you referring to their anti-trans bigotry?
anti-trans bigotry
Republican candidate who was hosting the event said:
these people that have money that I interact with, who I do favors for all day long. They ask me for something, I never say no. I never said no to these people,”
He is upset other rich people aren’t making him richer in exchange for political favors.
Thats just him advertising that he is still open to more bribery.
Yeah, all I’m hearing from that statement is, “where are all my gratuities?”
He was used and left out in the rain, and oh no wouldn’t you look at that his face is looking mighty tasty to those leopards
He wasn’t used at all, it’s fake news.
“They ask me for something, I never say no” and he wanted something in return which never happened. He’s some kind of socialist, another proof that socialism doesn’t work! /s
