Harcore vocalist on a litteral stage calling somebody out for wanting to be the center of attention and suggesting they should conform is some olympian level bullshit.

The desire for nonconformity is evidently limited to the institutes this band disapproves of.

Hardcore has always had a shitty culture. Stop throwing elbows in my pit.

I would like to point out that Banana people are always welcome at Primus concerts. Les Claypool knows how to have fun.

Primus sucks!

Damn I'm going to see Primus in 2 days and now wish I had time to get a banana suit.

Aww man it was end it? I've really liked their songs and their videos lead me to beleive they had a good sense of humour

Most musical genres have some level of gatekeeping, but hardcore is one of the worst.

Banana suit joke got old in 2010 or so. It's annoying and the people wearing them are usually annoying.

Doesn't mean you have to be a prick about it

Maybe they should stick to Taylor Swift covers if they're so afraid of anything different

If I was a singer of a band and people showed up in costumes. I would get them on stage, celebrate their whimsy, and encourage more fans to show up in costumes.

A most pit with a bunch of people in costumes, that sounds like fun.
