Is this really how "outsiders" see us?
I know this was done in jest (though it seems like low-hanging fruit- if you're gonna bash us, get creative, DO BETTER!), but the questions still stands: is this really how "outsiders*" see us?
Apologies if this is meme is old news, I just saw it for first time
*=also, some insiders
Son, this ain't a dream no more, it's the real thing

Lol. Sort of, yeah. I agree it’s low hanging fruit and somebody more creative or funnier could have done more with it. It’s kind of funny but not all that clever.

Re: Is this really how "outsiders" see us?
Who cared about us enough to make this? And why didn't they do a better job? And why didn't they at least use an actual DBT "resist" shirt for that particular picture?

They got me with the vape juice and tattoo. I can't grow a beard, and I'm too tired to actively resist these days.

Re: Is this really how "outsiders" see us?
Huh. Can you tell how long this has been around, 'cause it's the first time I've heard of it too. I agree w/ all the other comments re lack of cleverness, etc etc and wonder why anyone would bother to do this.

Re: Is this really how "outsiders" see us?
Of all the things they could use to make a meme about DBT fans and that's what they come up with? That's weak.
Turn you demons into walls of goddamned noise and sound.

Exactly. They also left off the jack daniels and also cooleybirds on every single item in our houses.John A Arkansawyer wrote:Seriously. There's not even a picture of someone drinking from a flask.Jonicont wrote:Amatuers

DBT’s Hood announces follow-up record plans, possible relocation to Caribbean
this one's even lazier, more stupid, and with lower hangin' fruit. The only reason I am even sharing it is the last part, in which caused a chortle or two:
Which is why the singer – who relocated here from Athens, Ga. just one year ago – is moving his musical base of operations yet again. “The Wednesday after the election, I was already writing songs for a follow-up record, lots of Woody Guthrie-type, anti-capitalist stuff. Hang on,” Hood says, scanning a text message on his iPhone 7. “When Commandante passed, I knew we had to get in the studio like, now, and do it in [expletive] Havana.”
Not only did he book a week in the prestigious and state-run Muerte a America recording studios; Hood, his wife and two young children will also take up residence in the romantic Caribbean capital. “She found us a 1 ½ bedroom flat a quarter mile walk from the bread store,” he says. “Eight bucks a week! And I’ve shipped a couple pallets of bottled water, and we’re all taking Cipro, so we’re set. Hang on. Gotta take this.”
-------
Hood is at first mum about how much of his plan he’s told his band mates. When pressed, he ‘fesses up. “Look, I haven’t told Cooley yet, okay? Marlboro Reds are $80 a pack there,” Hood says. “That’s almost double what they are here in Portland. It’s the cost of living in a free country, I guess.”

I didn't even realize that DBT was well known enough for it's fans to have detractors.

My guess is that it was done by a DBT "fan" who got off the train when they became "too political."Iowan wrote:I didn't even realize that DBT was well known enough for it's fans to have detractors.

"I don’t want there to be any doubt as to which side of this discussion we fall on," Hood says. "I don’t want there to be any misunderstanding of where we stand. If you don’t like it, you can leave. It’s okay. We’re not trying to be everybody’s favorite band, we’re going to be who we are and do what we do and anyone who’s with us, we’d love to have them join in."
Mike Cooley is somewhat more direct. "I wanted this to be a no bones about it, in your face political album," he says. "I wanted to piss off the assholes."

I guess they've finally succeeded in pissing off the assholes.

Re: Is this really how "outsiders" see us?
If that's the worst someone could come up with, I think we're alright folks. I dont think I've ever seen non-thc vape shit at a DBT show either. They left out the doobie and PBR, though.
E quindi uscimmo a riveder le stelle.

I have. The night Patterson premiered The Guns of Umpqua, there was a guy just behind the railbirds who was blowing huge clouds of vape smoke onto the stage. It was pissing Patterson off. I'd have to check the recording to see if he said anything.

Speaking of that, this is probably as good a place as any to ask this. Does anyone have the $3.00 "Contour Cut Flying Cooley Bird Sticker" from the DBT website?Clams wrote:...also cooleybirds on every single item in our houses.
This one: https://drivebytruckers.shop.musictoday ... p=407_2867
If so, I have a question - is it all black, or is there a white outline around it?
I know, I know - for three bucks, just order it and find out, but I thought someone here might know. Thanks.
