Do you know for certain that female based support bands were or were not considered? Or are you offended on behalf of other people? As a white, 30-something male I appreciate fully that I have no frame of reference in the equality debate. However I am capable of seeing the difference between drawing attention to genuine issues and virtue signalling. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StLewi Posted March 27, 2019 Report Share Posted March 27, 2019 It seems some people won't be happy until we have equality of outcome in every aspect of life. Anti Flag make a point of employing only female techs and roadies and it just seems a bit forced. Maybe it's a good thing, maybe it's just virtue signalling.

Going through it atm, I reckon they sound better on the slower tracks like Hang me High and Empyrean than on the faster stuff. The fast ones they definitely sound a bit more IDLES-lite. I could get on board with them, not ground breaking but then what is these days? 8 minutes ago, Jericode said: Off to this tonight, well keen for it.

Or are you offended on behalf of other people? I didn't say I was offended, I said I was surprised that some of you seemed to get wound up by it. I also pointed out that they had skin in the game, seeing that they are clearly one of the bands that didn't get considered despite female members. I've never heard of them, just looked on here - https://kermes.bandcamp.com/ I don't doubt that they'll have received a very strong push back elsewhere online, still no such thing as bad publicity as they used to say. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

priest17 Posted March 28, 2019 Report Share Posted March 28, 2019 A fair response One of the things I hate most about Twitter is that one person can tweet something and people (in particular the media) take it as something more, like the fact its written on the internet adds any sort of weight to it. the BBC are the worst for it in their desperate attempt to show a 'balanced argument' Anywhoo, buzzing for next week, I've only seen them in small venues before so looking forward to seeing them somewhere a bit bigger now. Wish we had Fontaines DC as support though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
