I feel validated by posting in this community. He's literally had an abusive gaslighting relationship with his fans for over 20 years. its important to be able to call a bully a bully.

oh don't get me wrong, I don't pay, I haven't paid for a ticket since 2000. I get free tickets through work, and free album copies, too. I have not the slightest intention to finance the zuzustrustfund.

A relationship between fans and an artist might seem trite. But if you can't call your childhood rock star hero a narcissistic abuser, where does that leave a person for everyone else in their life?
So to answer the orginal posters question, there ya go. this does matter. And it does amount to more than "wasting all your energy being a hater lolz!!!" |

The last time I was here was shortly after the christopher aaron wilson (c_wilson) double-whammy auction lunch and billys brother jesse fiasco. Billy went crazy at him on facebook, has anyone got the screenshots from FB of that marvelous event? I remember billy saying something along the lines of 'you will rue the day you ever meet me' I can't find the auction lunch thread on c_wilson's profile. Has it gone? I think it got removed eventually.

I'd still go, fuck it why not. I've seen SP2 a couple of times and the shows were decent, so sure. Just gotta see if the b0llster decides to do a European tour.

Sad Machines is an SP fan group. It's a bunch of people who have nothing bad to say about BC, basically. They worship the dude. No room for constructive criticism there. Paranoid got kicked out because he gave TGBK a bad rating. It's the polar opposite of Netphoria.

That's all I have to offer for now.
Thank you. I'll keep updating you as I learn more myself. |

As much as I dislike Billy now, he was my hero growing up. I love everything he did, up to and including Adore. I spent years listening to his music every day. Pouring over his lyrics. I had at least 10 T-shirts, 100+ CDs and imports. After Machina (and partly Adore) I started to get so angry with him. I was almost embarrassed to be a fan. His music was shit and the band was falling apart. He was a self-centered prick. I felt like he ruined part of my childhood. It's like falling in love wih someone only to realize they've been cheating on you for years.
I still remember seeing him on the Machina tour. It was a general admission open floor and I was near the front. Every time Billy looked in my direction I gave him the finger and screamed "fuck you". I'm pretty sure he saw me at least one. I have such a love/hate relationship with him. I can't pass the chance to see him again. So yes, I'm going. |

I went to the 20th anniversary tour, front row, and he looked right at me as he hit that big bongo.

When I was at the BORISHEAVYROCKS concert Takeshi righted the mic stand during an opening band's set. He rushed up by me. We almost touched.
I swooned. |

This seems like the best answer. I still don’t really understand how people can feel abused by someone they don’t have a personal relationship with, but I get why you’d still want to participate on this board.

That's my actual experience of him with his fans face to face, so I can't agree with what you've said from my experiences. |

This was never going to come to my neck of the woods, and even if it did, I'm not going to spend $75 to stand in the back of a half-full arena and listen to Billy go through the motions.

Yeah, his Alex Jones shit was pretty screwed up. I personally don't really think his political beliefs are an extension to his capabilities as a songwriter, but to each their own. I really don't think he's racist like some people here are calling him.

I've been out of the loop. I knew he'd been on the Alex Jones podcast but don't know the details, what did he say?
