There’s always been casual fans that go to concerts for a single or cause they think the artist is hot, but lacy and a few others it’s been reduced down to seconds of a song-so an artist is putting in the same effort as before, writing recording and touring - and kids are showing up for a few seconds of an hour long experience (some are their just to get the footage of them there, not to hear it) then probably talking and on their phones for the rest of it. His reactions seem childish but I kinda get the frustration.

TL:DR TIKTOK reduces songs down to seconds, and there’s a lot of people that want to share that on social vs actually enjoy the show and engage with the artists work.

I just feel he’s there to sing. He should do that.

Some people write for people who read a single chapter and stop

Yeah I agree he should still perform, esp because there prob ARE people who are deep fans of his there and it’s what he’s being paid to do. It’s always been a thing though, I remember nirvana would speed through smells like teen spirit sometimes for prob similar reasons.

My thought on bands who hate their popular songs is always “well you made it and people liked it”. Honestly musicians seem to be the most self centred humans on this planet

Nirvana and Kurt hated teen spirit cause they never wanted that fame and that song to be an anthem of the 90s that’s why they never played it and made fun of the song
