A homie posted this on Discord and this is exactly what I meant with my Bluesky post that has now gotten flack on Twitter: "It's like if half the people that showed up at a live gig just ignored the band and hounded the promoter for a gig" Thiiiiiiis is what I meant.
nah yeah it's something other people notice and work around too, too many acts and not enough stages sometimes, when that happens they get antsy, which leads to burn out or cynicism, which leads to worse shows overall. The only way to reverse that is to make something that not everyone can do easily
that twitter brain damage gotta be HITTING to take umbrage with something like this
People who don't even attend the shows or participate in the community, who don't even talk to my homies or even greet them in these messages, who will literally just say "hey put me on this" or act like all of these things are open invitation to literally get themselves on.
