turns out that Hanson fans were already heartbroken when they tried to get Hanson to say Black Lives Matter earlier in the year, and instead found out that Zac Hanson (a different Hanse to Isaac) is a transphobic, homophobic, Islamophobic gun nut who thinks George Zimmerman was right to murder Trayvon Martin and it doesn't matter what happens to refugees bcz "we don't have room for them"

some of the fans in that thread are all "what a relief to finally be able to say that it's a bit weird that their dad picked their wives from a pool of elite superfans, and that even the non-racist one has seven children"

one of my friends ia huge Hanson fan (!) and she is gutted by what's gone on. When I first met her a few years back she told me an annual event where fans can buy tickets for a week on a boat with the band which sounds... intense

This is kind of like when normal people found out the shiplap HGTV show couple were evangelical weirdos with shitty views on LGBTQ rights (and probably many other things). How did you not see the signs?

^ that's the hired singer from the band formed by the guitarist out of Ride in between Ride's split and his joining Oasis*, suddenly explaining why they aren't touring the US in the middle of a pandemic when international travel is banned. presumably his explanation for why they also haven't toured since 1997 will be forthcoming.
* true story: Liam Gallagher heard that he was joining Gay Dad and poached him instead

I can't remember the exact circumstances but istr thinking Andy Bell must have thought as highly of H#1 as I did when we just walked away from his own project to play with a fractured Oasis.

I'm guessing the sad remnant of a band that broke up to fill in gaps in Oasis going there with covidiot/antiantifa/racism shock posts that gather 24 likes and 3 comments might have struggled to sell out that US tour.
The band's twitter account is protected - presumably due to fallout from covidiocy/racism.

As just posted to the Deftones thread, throw in guitarist Stephen Carpenter now.

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.

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.
