In case you haven't noticed, EVERY SINGLE FOO FIGHTERS CONCERT SUPPORTED CORPORATE OVERLORDS. The tickets you bought? Corporate Overlord sold 'em to you. The tunes you bought? Corporate Overlord. The venue you went to? Sponsored by a corporate overlord. The Beer you drank at the venue, the fucking merch you bought, hell, even the fucking parking fee you coughed up went to a corporation. You don't get to enjoy music anymore without supporting corporate overlords.

You're being an antagonistic asshole and you know it. And you use the term bootlicker incorrectly.

Bro... I don't go to concerts because fuck rent seeking parasites. Small venues only chief.

I don't pay for corporate music. If I like the artist and they accept payments. I will pay direct.

I am sorry you can't imagine a world without sucking some rich dudes' dicks.

Simping for some celeb on here... I don't even know who these clowns are. They had like one hit wonder in 2000s. Wtf is u so worked up over?

Lemmy skews heavy 30+ so most people here will never understand. But I'm right there with you.

The tickets you bought? Corporate Overlord sold 'em to you.

Never bought them, i can sneak into anything worth being at.

The tunes you bought? Corporate Overlord.

Never bought them other than physical copies direct from the label that only has 5 artists.

The venue you went to? Sponsored by a corporate overlord.

Never went, any "venue" I've been to was come and go.

The Beer you drank at the venue

Didn't buy it, made and brought it.

the fucking merch you bought

Never bought it

hell, even the fucking parking fee you coughed up went to a corporation.

I go to venues through piblic transit so i can get intoxicated

You don't get to enjoy music anymore without supporting corporate overlords.

I've been contributing to small fedi artists just because they're small fedi artists.

You're being an antagonistic asshole and you know it. And you use the term bootlicker incorrectly.

If you even want to talk about you insecurities that you project, I won't offer myself because you already made up your mind about who I am before you finished reading this. Get help. Twat.
