Thank you for this.

It’s funny that he mentioned the Detroit Converge show as a place that might have asked for a merch cut. I’ve heard a few rumors about that place being shitty to performers. It sucks because it’s a decent intimate space, and I’ve seen some great shows there, including that one he’s talking about. Also laughed a bit when he talked about being pissed at boring crowds. After that same Detroit Converge show, a friend said Bryan looked like, “a pissed off gargoyle” during Thou’s set. I pointed out how the crowd was mostly a bunch of old metal dudes standing stock still with their arms crossed the whole time and that it felt like he was mirroring the crowd being lifeless. Guess my instincts were somewhat on point there. Haha.

It’s weird he would feel that way, because sometimes the biggest fans in the world just watch with a deadpan stare. When you’re over 30, you want to get home in one piece/not look for legal problems
