Thanks so much for posting this. I was wondering what he was gonna say, as he put on twitter that he was gonna say something. Made my day, thanks again.
I mean ignoring the fact that being openly queer and non-gender conforming is inherently an act of political and cultural subversion did you even bother to listen to anything he said here in the video?
Clarence Boddicker Maybe you need the re-read the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States, and acquaint yourself with Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights! As to what he said; why don’t you educate yourself on the facts of hydraulic fracking while you are at it, because it has not only been proven to cause earthquakes, but the chemicals used have been linked to infertility, miscarriages, and birth defects. Who in their right mind would not actively try to do everything to not have it happen anywhere they live? Or, if you are a conscientious human being, keep it away from others as well? That’s a concept called “self-preservation”. And since you are so angsting about the subversion of the “queer leftists” LOL [big eye-roll here]; infertility, miscarriages, and birth defects would have to cause at least a three- alarm fire in the default setting in your, may I presume “pro-life”, right-wing mind!
Nothing like being hot sweaty and sticky while dancing off a hangover and then getting some knowledge spit at you that makes you regret spending so much money to try and get laid and do drugs.
There is no heaven to win, and a hell for these tycoons will only exist if we make it for them. But feel-good retribution-torture and guillotines won't solve systematic problems. The economic order must be overthrown and re-written in a series of boring meetings with experts.
dougalsii “experts” are mostly people well-educated in the status quo. What motivation do “experts” have in reforming a system that honors them with such a title? No- change won’t come by experts. The experts won’t know what hit ‘em.
Change only comes through violence, and I don't necessarily mean physical violence. Birth is painful, as is death. Change is death and birth rolled into one, therefore a violent act. To be reborn there must be pain.
How does Ezra think oil should get out of the ground and into his tour van or bus refined and ready to burn? is there some noninvasive way he has figured out? if he has a better way... well, it just seems he spends most of his time playing guitar, not experimental oil exploration.
you're missing the point. his argument is that no person should have the money or power to uproot communities and rip up the earth for the sake of profitability, not least an outdated conservative homophobe. his point isn't that fracking is bad, pay attention.
I watched this live stream, and was so MOVED by it that I have to come back and rewatch it again and again. POWERFUL🔥
I'm not sure what he's doing ... but *he's doing it right.*
I'm seeing his face and live performance for the first time now and I think i love him

Oh thanks for letting me know!!!
It was hot and early in the day. Glad to see this made it on youtube so more people could see it. Tell 'em all Ezra

People tend to get very uncomfortable with queer leftists.

What?
Does Frankie Lee Simms get any credit for the use of his riff?
Ezra openly credits him, in fact!
When is Ezra Furman playing oop narth in England? This is tremendous!
Maria Ward i think he’s got a UK tour later this month, not sure which places though
ooh .. he's on in a few weeks!
If you are in the twin cities, I will see you, electric.
Meatloaf vibes in this one. Ezra is great
Any chance you've got more of the set to share?
sorry, only managed to save this bit from the livestream as i thought the monologue was pretty important
Definitely agree. Really hope either the festival or someone else will be able to upload the rest of their set. Thanks!
Balls.

I miss Tim and his horn
Antidote to Ted Nugent / Charlie Daniels
Richard Hendricks are you? :O
She’s a she guys
ezra uses them/they, could you perhaps change the bio and respect their pronouns?
you're right, have done!
He doesn't actually. He accepts any and all pronouns. He's said so in a few interviews.
thanks!
she's come out as a trans woman now, exclusively she/her 🙏
