mcnutt said:It’s hypocritical. Corporate EV is no bueno but it is what it is. Times have changed, attitudes have changed, and the band has changed. No longer are they a youthful display of truth and rebellion. They now are a boomer version of a corporate band with a singer that plays private corporate gigs for NetJets, Salesforce, and a super bowl commercial for Verizon...seriously?! not to mention the celebrity functions and elitist display they show. To each their own but they should own up to it. It just seems hypocritical to me. Still a fan, but my views of the band are different. And more specifically EV. The Ticketmaster partnership is awful as well. Bands get old and change and we are now seeing this approach.

I haven’t read this shitty thread because I don’t care- a new fucking album is FINALLY coming out on March 27. AND a spin-off from big Lebowski premiers the week before on 3/20. How fucking awesome is that?!?I'm like an opening band for your mom.0

I think many fans are tired of hearing rants(especially negative ones) at concerts. It feels like being talked down to. Even if you agree with his positions. We are an aging fan base that is trying to get away from everyday life for a few hours and when he does these rants it takes away from why we are there. We want to have fun. I don't want to look around to see who agrees with him and who doesn't. He needs to stop blaming one side and realize neither side has it figured out. I guess I won't go on anymore.

Reaching climate change, the singer added: "Climate change is real. That is not fake news. And we cannot, cannot be the generation the history of the world will look back on and wonder why they didn't do anything humanly possible to solve the biggest crisis in our time.
"Anything can be obtainable. The Chicago Cubs winning the World Series. This is proof. And I use that analogy because, in regards to climate change, because it can be done, but here's the thing, we don't have 108 years to wait."
I can vouch that not flying a private jet is humanly possible.

I beg to differ as do millions of others as we all have to live on the same Earth. People like Eddie are not part of the solution.I guess it really doesn't surprise me coming from a band that is releasing a 1 sided vinyl record. What a waste.0 -

It is disappointing, that is all. It goes against so much of what he says on stage.0
