We’re already mad at Kraft. We’re mad at the billionaire class in general. Kraft’s behavior is not novel. Ed’s is. That’s why his actions are getting more attention. We didn’t know Ed would side with the enemy till now.
Ed is the one who spent tens of millions pre-paying semi trucks, Staff, Equipment, consultants on stage design, Travel and lodging and logistics. He apparently fronts the money for his own tours. People are hired, contracts are signed, things are scheduled and paid for. I don’t envy Ed. He’s not in the financial or legal position to simply cancel like the others are.
Robert Kraft is the bad guy here. Changing the rules on what musicians can play and can’t play. Art versus censorship is a tale as old as time. The industry needs to fight back, the fans need to stand up, but I don’t think we should take it all out on Ed here. I got the vibe he wants to be on the right side, but he’s too deep right now and counting on the tour dates to cover his expenses.
Ed showed us all that he considers himself more in line with those stadium owners then the rest of us though, so fuck him
Yes but I think you missed the “too” as in people need to be mad at both Ed and Kraft, most of the post I’ve seen mostly talk about ed.

A multi millionaire siding with more money is surprising?
After spending years cultivating his “regular guy” facade and doing shows in support of Ukraine, yes
Or possibly he’s on the side of people who spent a lot of money to see him in concert
Either way, he’s not on the side of the people being genocided in Gaza, so, I’ll repeat, fuck him
Man of the people!
People like Kraft etc.
Yes. We know he is on the side of money.
