General fan probably does care more about JI than JC. As billy ranted in the asheville doc, fans think Iha wrote songs. JC really doesn’t get the credit he deserves from general public. They can’t fill arenas. They are a 2500-4K venue band and there is really nothing wrong with that. I prefer it.

But I don’t know the economics of it. Maybe it’s who cares if the arena is half empty it’s more tickets. They will def need groupons. But so does arcade fire and a ton of other acts.

Anyway. D’arcy is a bit crazy here. Sounds like she feels very entitled.

Kind of a bummer to learn the whole reunion is just marketing. Some bands were just meant to exist during a finite period of time I guess.

it's kind of amazing how he could never for once in his fucking life be straight up and just come out with it. he always talks in mysteries. d'arcy was 100% right about him.

(I've had a wonderful dream to this present day ~)

How the emails with Devi Ever didn't get press is beyond me.

Billy:
  • called a trans woman an ugly pig
  • a he/she
  • threatened to punch her lights out
  • threatened sue her into oblivion if she didn't keep her mouth shut

This is actually a perfect week to do a new interview with Devi. Paging Buttcannon

guys... we still don't have this photo. I've been a fan for too long, i'm getting old, and this place hasn't generated this much electricity in a long time. It's a miracle i'm still here because this band blows. All kidding aside, as others have said, the photo would provide context. Why the fuck are mods acting like morality police? where are we? the internet or a catholic school?! WE ARE ENTITLED TO INFORMATION!!!

"the mods" is just me in this case, and I have no morals, nor does it matter what I say in any way. if you have any decency is none of my business.

nobody is preventing you from finding that pic. I have not deleted it since it wasn't posted, so I don't "police morals", either. hop along now.

It sounds like only one person screenshotted - it's good if it doesn't get out. I'm sure D'arcy thinks there's enough embarrassing pictures of her online without another getting added to every TMZ style site going

That story sucked, nothing happened, someone came up with some junk equipment that billy didn't want associated with his holy brand. Devi being a trannny is a non-story, whiny ass bitches just feel the need to drag gender and identity politics into everything. What matters is the here and now... and that d'arcy photo

She was considered for 2007, she mentioned there was a brief conversation with them.

After that she retired. She's kinda slowly coming back into the music business now that she owns a music venue/art gallery.

As a lawyer myself, I will say that being his lawyer must be an adventure in and of itself. Probably pays well though.

oh okay here we go. you realized "trannny" is a slur that will not be displayed on this board and found a way around it. congrats, you added a letter to make you look even worse. I won't police that either but I suggest you fuck off.

Well, I'm done reading it now.

And coming out of it I see a bunch of people, two specifically, who could barely work together when they were younger, who have managed to work out none of their problems and a situation made immeasurably worse by BC once again treating the band like a brand.

She comes off a little scatterbrained to me, but a lot of what she described said has a lot of basis in many, many anecdotes about Bill's behavior that have circulated through the years. This adds a lot of context to the band's history.

Jesus, that bit about her having a miscarriage.

BC definitely tried to get her back in, but on his terms and not hers, and she wouldn't play ball. Same as it ever was.

The original four will never work or tour together again. That's all there is to it.

I'm not looking to be a troll or anything, netphoria's been a great source for news, bootlegs, leaks, arms of sheep, monte etc etc. But '******' a slur? I would argue the ****** badge is one that is to be cherished and worn with pride. Transgenedered people seem to believe it's empowering to take control of your preferred pronoun so why do you want to take that away from them. We just want the photo!

sjpaterra, not the right place for any of this, but - deviever can refer to herself in whichever way she pleases. nobody took that away from her.

just as I can refer to myself as kike cunt if I want to.

for you, however, the option to assign slurs to someone else is a tiny bit limited on this site. to****. I think you can live with that without bullcrapping about empowerment of someone else.

you can? great. moving on.

He made some snide remark about D'arcy's lip injections too. The guy is a trump supporting cis white male, guaranteed. He's the kind of fucked up person who unironically enjoys Run2Me.

I do. I also work with high profile career people who do.

somehow I have never seen them turning their kid into a hashtag brand on instagram. I don't know Beyonce personally nor do I follow the accounts who brand their children. #AugustusJuppiter
