Iced Earth

LOL. Waiting for the imminent Schaffer mugshot, not sure whether to use Michael Jackson popcorn gif or Jon Stewart popcorn gif.
 
I mean there's a reason it's going to be one of the prime photos from the event. It's an amazing photo that captures passion and fury, but at the same time frames the accuracy of how wrongfooted the fascists are. Jon Schaffer is going to be one of the faces of the coup for the rest of his life.
 
I do not believe he did not know what was going on, when he enthousiastically said "it's happening".

The banning of many people who confronted him was to cover it up.
Pure panick. He realised too late that it did not look well for him.

Not a believable statement.

Yeah, I'm okay with it, though. He's allowed to be wrong. He didn't kick in the door and join a murderous mob.
 
I listened to a bit of Iced Earth today. I've said I won't allow Jon to ruin my enjoyment of it. So far, that statement stands. But naturally while listening I associated it with the coup and it put a bit of a cloud on the whole listening experience. So while it 's not ruined, it is definitely tainted.

This sucks. Iced Earth used to be my 3rd favorite band, up until around Dystopia (that was a very good album though).

Edit: Listening to this now. Matt is really pitchy here on I Died For You. Not a good performance.

Matt has to be one of the less charismatic frontmen ever!
