Smashing guitars is dumb

[yabba]

The monitor also seems to have been a prop. So that too was not exactly a big loss. it's possible if the guitar didn't even break that no actual equipment was really damaged.

I would have thought the sparks from the monitor that were clearly staged/pyrotechnics kinda gave that away..

What do we think about the Weekend spending $7 million on a tacky showbiz revue so he could indulge in overwrought 1980s karaoke and Michael Jackson cosplay?

“The Weeknd spent $7 million of his own money on production costs for his Super Bowl halftime show”

Think of how many Danelectros he could have purchased for poor kids.

If he was buying black Dano baritones mostly like Bridgers’ guitar, he could purchase 11,666 guitars for poor kids if you round up to $600/guitar to account for tax/shipping. (And that’s assuming he’s paying retail.)

WHY DOES THE WEEKEND HATE GUITARLESS ORPHANS?!?

For $7 million, I hope his rider stipulated the stadium had to play Loverboy during stage setup.

@Gary Blanchard to the red courtesy phone. Someone needs their unconscious racism corrected.

The only time I have found racism in making fun of banjos was one that stated that banjo wasn't a valid instrument because the great European classical composers didn't write for banjo. That is racist. Other jokes about the banjo are just lack of refinement,

...the great European classical composers didn't write for banjo because they had good taste...

FIFY

This one can be smashed.

This one can be smashed.

That would be interesting, because guitar smashing had always been an act of destruction. It would be interesting to see it as an act of mercy.

You have to hit it really hard, right at the back of the head at the brain stem, so it doesn’t suffer.
