As just posted to the Deftones thread, throw in guitarist Stephen Carpenter now.
Bonus content - he's also anti-vaxx and a flat earther!

Anyone admitting to COVIDiocy from this point out should be required to have a court-appointed (and HAZMAT-suited) guardian to keep them from gnawing through powerlines and swallowing handfuls of rusty screws and whatnot. Just complete soup sloshing around in those brainpans.

Catching up on that Hanson story does actually highlight one of the good sides of rabid online stan culture, they are good at amplifying shit like that which might otherwise be largely unknown, even within the larger fan group. The fact that so many are willing to continue making it an issue and not letting them just skate on evasive answers is one nice side effect.

Antivaxx usually comes with the set but flat earth is fairly novel.

To be fair, it can't be easy to go through your entire career being the one person in a group who no-one is interested in, who no-one pays any attention to, who people don't recognzie and are not even sure who you are and what you're doing there up on stage with the Corrs.

It's a bit of a shame that proceeds go to an organisation supporting musicians who've gotten into financial hardships due to covid, which is totally valid. It'd be more fun to roast if it was actually going to some anti-lockdown group.
― Daniel_Rf, Friday, 27 November 2020 16:43 (three years ago) link
yeah i guess its good that the funds will go to musicians in need. still, its a shame that the single generating the proceeds has a message aimed at prolonging the deadly conditions that make the lockdowns necessary - like releasing an anti-condom single to raise money for AIDS prevention.

The Foo Fighters played a benefit organised by AIDS-denier bassist Nate Mendel in early 2000, and put up a wake up sheeple page on their website, which they deleted in 2002. The "won't get tested, or get her kids tested" HIV+ mom who was Mendel's connection to the movement died in 2008, of AIDS. Dave Grohl has since supported Elton John's AIDS Foundation.
Taylor Hawkins played a Vaccines Cause Autism benefit in 2013, though.

In related news, this is the one that shook me up, been into her records from the early 80s on--musical persona is (so far!) quite different than this--from Rolling Jazz:
Presumably she's been this way for a while, but singer Cassandra Wilson unfurled her MAGA flag on Twitter yesterday in a big way. So much so that I saw someone refer to her as "Qassandra Wilson" and laughed before I did the search and saw that...yep, she's got the brain worms all right.

I just had a quick listen to the new Captain Sensible project, Sensible Gray Cells - "Get Back Into The World", and I couldn't quite tell if he's a covidiot or just mistrusting of the government in general.

The album cover kinda seems like a visual joke that makes the title ironic, though scrolling through his twitter I'm not too certain of that.

Maybe I'm just biased against Sensible. Watching "Don't You Wish That We Were Dead" I thought his bemusement was telling when having to confront that basically everyone who's ever met him thinks he's a dick.
