Shut Up, Dude: This Week’s Best And Worst Comments
Early word from Indio is that people are getting sandblasted by strong winds. No one said music festivals were comfortable! I went to Coachella once and I found it difficult to navigate. But on the second day Tegan and Sara gave me their artist wristbands on their way out and it was much better after that. This year we’ve got James reporting from the desert, so if you see him, offer him your sunscreen and Grassroots Uplifter. Or stream performances on your device right here. Coachella 2016’s got it all: Axl Rose in a cast! Taylor Swift x Bleached! Bernie Bros! Disappointed grime and shoegaze fans! Kylie Jenner, probably? Your best and worst pre-fest comments are below.

In fairness, it’s pretty clear that he’s not pissed off that Miller didn’t know them previously, but that he made no effort to find out who was inducting him. |

I originally read that headline as Taylor Swift was on acid and Father John Misty saw her. So disappointed. |

Brian Message manages Nick Cave too. I just did a search for him and discovered Nick Cave reacts exactly as I would if I ran into Johnny Greenwood on the street.

What this guy did is a criminal assault, but God, jumping on stage to take a selfie with the band in the background is one of the most obnoxious things I’ve ever heard of. |

It’s okay Black Keys, if you’re lucky one day someone will regret inducting you into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. |

Being an adult and going out for a rock show is an act of love, especially on a weeknight. Besides the the tickets you’ve got to trek downtown, pay for parking, probably grab dinner, hire a babysitter, and then be up bright and early the next day to work, in this guy’s case, to teach. If he has so much respect for Homme’s music that he wants his signature, then Josh Homme can show some fucking grace and spare a second of his time to pay some respect back, and be grateful that people are so moved by his art that they value something so basic as an autograph from him. |

Pearl Jam is one of my all-time favorite groups … I will be seeing them for my 50th time in Chicago at Wrigley … Politically Eddie Vedder is a complete moron . Obama is by far the worst president ever and he supported him … A guy who looks down on the United States . Save your politics for your house and just fucking play music |
