                @FlohEinstein @cstross @aadeacon yeah, the lead singer said some really gross stuff a few years back. I was supremely disappointed.

                  You've got me on "furby organ".
                  That's so stupid, it's awesome!😆

                    @cstross friends group uniformly disappointed in him. Perhaps he’ll urge a boycott and lead it himself? Wish I could straightforwardly root for him.

                                          @cstross A living, breathing, bona fide genius who happens to be a great musician. I hope he just drags his live rig onto the stage and asks the audience which song he should play.
