  • Former touring musician here. The larger acts are contractually bound to whatever their label decides on venues and ticketing in most cases. But there's no reason to roll over and accept these assholes at Ticketmaster as our defacto option to have live music. Support local artists and local venues if possible. I'm out in the fucking sticks, but I will drive an hour to catch a show from time to time.

  • I'm glad I read that blog post. I can actually feel the excitement of those experiences. I started my fediverse journey in 2018, and it truly is a one-time-only feeling when you realize you're not participating on yet another corporate owned data vacuum.

  • Right, I read the story and I know they did in fact shoot him AFTER he had already pointed it at the officer. And yes, I am going to make this comparison about the preferential treatment he got before being shot, after a verbal warning, because the US is chock full of sobering statistics for minorities getting killed by cops.
