I have seen them 2 times. At the Varsity on the first record tour (played the songs normal) and at the Seanger a few yrs later maybe for the second record? This one had a few changes, Mr Jones more stripped down but not acoustic. I like them.

Mike Tirico is definitely black. Just acts like a nerdy white guy.

You playing the victim here and getting so defensive helps the stereotypes more than anything he posted.

I know you can't see that you did the exact same thing. Which is not unexpected. Idiot.

You mean "along with live"? Live was (or is?) a pretty good band.

Both times I saw CC they played everything slow and acoustic and it sucked. I cannot stand when bands pull that shite

Saw them at Lauberge in LC about 10 or so years ago. They played a normal set thankfully because I had heard that they do what you witnessed.

What? I am pointing out you are mad at a stereotype about Jews by also acting out another stereotype about Jews which is being consistent victims over some trivial shite.

Nope. You’re too dumb to understand. I won’t bother trying to explain it to you because it won’t make a difference.
