Anti-piracy dweebs are such dweebs.
That’s the least rock&roll thing you could do.
This isn’t even piracy. It was an ancient, physical, bootleg recording of a live show that her husband got decades ago. She wasn’t even selling multiple copies, just the one that’s she’s owned for years.
:british-maw:
artists make like 0 money of album sales anyway. this is dumb shit. maybe clapton does but he’d be in like 1% of musicians to actually pay off their advance and make actual money on shit. he’s rich either way fuck him .
Clapton needs all the money he can get to fund his life’s dream, miniaturizing a guy and putting him in his ass who could control him with levers and it wouldn’t be gay since he’s some kind of robot
Reminder that Clapton was racist as fuck even as a young man, while building his career on the backs of black blues artists.
Also, his music sucks shit.
