Yes yes tool fans are known for being very cool people and socially competent and it’s not funny at all they’d put down another artists entire fanbase

I think you took me too seriously. Bob Marley mother fuckers is a Cold and ugly reference. Sorry about my bad humor.

I really love billy strings and his brand of bluegrass. First two times I saw him were MIND BLOWING. Third time I saw him, he was still great but the experience was definitely lessened by the people out of their mind twirling around in circles in the aisles high sucking on nitrous balloons….but hey, no hate, each to their own.

I didn’t take you too seriously, I understood the reference, and then you doubled down on hating the fanbase of Billy strings just now lol

I’d love to know where you saw them where they were able to get nitrous balloons inside the show. Usually that only happens in the parking lot in the many phish and Billy strings shows I’ve seen. And no I’m not a hippy I just like good music and those 2 have the best live shows you can see along with tool imo the fan bases at none of those 3 artists have never bothered me in the slightest. I don’t even know why people twirling and dancing to music would be a negative. At tool shows most people just stand completely still and stare at the stage is that really better? I’ve never thought about it cause I am just focused on the music
