Wow. I can't believe someone would take the time to go on stage and spit on him for that. It's not like a billion other people don't share his opinion.

So wait, lemme get this straight. Conor was on stage at an awards show for underappreciated indie bands, and because he spoke of how indie music is getting fucked by a big corporation, someone had the gall to come up and spit on him? Yeah, douche bag....

yep, basically.

people have such a lack of respect for artists and their entitlement to opinions sometimes.

well, people have a lack of respect for other people's entitlement to opinions in general, but i think it's especially bad when it's an artist, on stage, mid performance. that's a time when a person deserves extra respect.

Shouldn't security got their heads out of their asses and maybe prevented the random guy from the crowd from hopping up on stage and spitting on a well known, world renowned artist? I mean, how can those big, burly men completely not stop the random person from getting on stage?

haha, security...

i find it sad that for the most part security are a bunch of aging losers on a power trip. there are times when you come across a few exceptions, but rarely...
