Easily the least rock and roll thing a rock star can do is take a big check to play a private show for a wealthy corporation lmao.

The difference between an artist and an entertainer

I remember seeing: Nick Cave is an artist.

I think I finally got what that is supposed to mean.

But is that statement even true lol

What would be extremely rock and roll-- punk rock, even -- is donating all of the proceeds from that show to pro-union efforts.

#DonateItDave, or something

Blood money put to good use is still a karmic negative. Amazon dehumanizes people. Israel dehumanizes people. At some point the excuses aren't enough anymore.

Maybe look at it this way: Foo Fighters effectively get Amazon to fund union activity by playing on stage for a couple of hours.
