@dizzyprx @dreamxboys It’s not. Touring artists are individually contracted artists, just like employees. In many cases, you have no more control over who you tour with than who your coworkers are. 9/10 tours you are being told what to do… the other tour is “yours” and you can run it how you like.

[Matt Hoos @Matt_AIB]

@dizzyprx @dreamxboys Even Anthony Kiedis from the Red Hot Chili Peppers toured with The Rolling Stones and his advice was to never tour with them cause they sucked as people.

Touring artists aren’t the ones supporting the abusers. The listeners are.

[Matt Hoos @Matt_AIB]

@dizzyprx @dreamxboys It may seem like that from your seat, but, from experience, it’s not the case a lot of the time. I’ve had to tour with people who literally stole money from our band, but we had contracts with the venues, and it would’ve been impossible to get home without performing.

[Matt Hoos @Matt_AIB]

@dreamxboys People should always defend the abused, but speaking from experience, I’ve had to tour with tons of people I think are horrible people… only a few of those times I could’ve disagreed, and even in those instances, my opinions affect wether or not my band mates (and families) eat

[Matt Hoos @Matt_AIB]

@dreamxboys Why not be mad at the label? Or the people who support the sexual abuser by going to the show?

A lot of the time, bands have very little say in who they tour with, and when given the option between starving or touring with someone who they think is a piece of shit, they’ll tour

[Matt Hoos @Matt_AIB]

@dreamxboys No offense, but you clearly have no idea how the music industry works.

I’d be willing to bet that you don’t see eye to eye with all your coworkers, and even further, I’d bet you don’t even know which of your coworkers are shitty people. This is true of every industry.

[Matt Hoos @Matt_AIB]

@dreamxboys It’s very easy to not support something, and still have to tour with artists who don’t support your views.

[Matt Hoos @Matt_AIB]

At warped tour in 2013, I drank hot whiskey at 7 o’clock in the morning and chased it with hot water… I then proceeded to projectile vomit about 10 feet in the parking lot… but I was still the only member of my band that didn’t get heat stroke

@TooCloseToTouch Is so good

[Matt Hoos @Matt_AIB]
