They’re having a fucking meltdown on TexAgs about it https://texags.com/forums/16/topics/3190623/1#discussion
people got mad because he called them satanic. and that was the exact outrage he was looking to draw because it was free advertising. not that I think the outrage was warranted or anything, but let's not pretend it wasn't what he was going for in the first place. props to him for playing those fools, I guess he's looking to go another round.
The man is a fucking troll icon and his career is just getting started. Excited to listen to the album when I get a chance today
I bought a ticket to see him at the Aragon in Chicago in September, current plan is to just be an old guy alone at an LNX concert. I'm looking forward to it. Ticket was $65, $95 after all the live nation shit lol.

Never followed up on this, the show was a lot of fun. I posted up next to the sound guys and talked to them the whole time (did a lot of tech theater stuff in college so we had some common ground). They presented it like a play in 3 acts about his career, basically moving through songs in release order. Watching the kids of every gender and sexuality just enjoy the hell out of themselves was fun. Would certainly go again.
