at least ross lynch is hot and was kinda iconic for this
Hotness isn't a good indicator of music though. That brings to mind all my little sister's friends in highschool who were hair metal fans in the mid-late 80's. I was not. I remember stupid fucking Whitesnake (Coverdale specifically) talking about how image was everything for them. I'm like dude. You were the 3rd or 4th singer for Deep Purple before you formed Whitesnake, and image had nothing to do with it (he sang on Burn and Stormbringer oh and Come Taste the Music). Deep Purple did not suck, Whitesnake sucked and will always have sucked. Looks apparently matter to lots of people within the popular music realm and whatever that might be at the time. I'd just say if any of those motherfuckers looks as good as I do when they get this old, hat's off to 'em.

i don't know i can't think of a hot artist that isn't also great. plenty of uggos that can't play for shit though.
lol.
There is zero correlation with how someone looks and how good of a musician or singer they are. I don't really care how hot or not someone is thought to be. What gets me is gimmickry as identity which is the worst.

instead of The Driver Era bonnaroo should have been brave and booked The Sticky Sweethearts.
AI has truly scary implications. How are the rest of the songwriters who compose music about gluing your balls to your butthole supposed to find work now?

well you know how the old saying goes, "fool me once, shame on you. fool me twice, shame on glue".

so playing devils advocate, how do you feel about GWAR?

I don’t think any of them are particularly great musicians though there is talent. I’m generally there for the blood and gore spectacle.

Blood & gore spectacle = gimmickry?
It’s a special case. Clown Core is another. Mudvayne I suppose too. And Slipknot. In GWAR’s case, they created a fantasy world out of their characters and played them on stage from Sleazy P Martini, Slymestra, Odorous, etc. it’s a little more thought out than being teased up hair pretty boys or Trippie Redd. I see where someone else could come to the conclusion that it’s similar. But GWAR carved out their own niche torturing and killing people on stage. Is it still campy? Yeah. But they get a pass. Ive seen them a few times, and I know I’m not specifically going for the music unlike say another Richmond hard metal band like Pig Destroyer. I’m going to get pissed on, cum on and bled on. And I’ll still get some headbanging in.

I’ve been trying to forget it since I heard it but I think so. I have no clue, idk how bands are getting popular these days but people are somehow excited for this?? Idk
time and again when i see people asking "how is so and so popular" the answer is always tiktok.
One of the biggest things wrong with the music industry right now in my opinion.
Local scenes are hurting and artists are grinding it out on TikTok instead, where the vast majority will remain nobodies.
Not to be harsh... but the world would be a better place if these artists spent half the time practicing and gigging as they do posting on social media and worrying about algorithms.

X-Cops makes Bonnaroo great again. Unfortunately GWAR is scheduled for Birmingham on the 14th, Memphis the 15th, Destin the 16th and Tampa the 17th. So I don't see any way they're giving us X-Cops unless we get a cover song or two. :/

factually wrong
Psh. Look at that ugly ass motherfucker in your avatar. All I can say is if I can't just walk up and punch him for goofy-ugliness, I would like to destroy his sweater.

Anybody going for just Fred Again that wants to meet up and get pit? Or, anyone leaving before Fred Again that wants to sell me their bracelet on the way out?

Go to one of the nearby buccess Sunday Morning and you’re bound to find someone who left early. You can now kill 2 birds with one stone by 1. Getting a free ticket. 2. Pregaming in the parking lot.
