What have Metallica said or done that betrays a lack of concern or knowledge about the fans feelings? Their news update is pretty clear (IMHO), and just about stops short of an apology. What more do you want them to do? You're taking them to task for not wanting to perform in a - by your own admission - "shitty venue"? And you're mad at them for this? To paraphrase the hackneyed t-shirt slogan, "They've upped their standards. Up yours." :-)
Spirit of personal integrity? Laugh and a half, that one. "Put on our headphones and tear shit up"? Well, that's what the Metallica 'fans' did at the concert venue, and look how well that worked out for them.
Saying "we can behave like idiots because you do too" is far too childish for someone in the age-range of the average Metallica fan.
The absolute kickers were these lines: See…you shouldn’t toy with the affections of people who love your music…they will react like homicidal lovers. They will set u on fire.
..followed shortly by: Heavy metal is supposed to represent a spirit of rebellion and independent expression but it seems like you expect less from your fans.
Allow me to say: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
There are strangely unsettling parallels between the thinking that drives this blog post, and the apologists for the London rioters.
"The Metallica "Angry soon-to-be-ex Fan" is stupid"
