The only problem I ever had with him and people defending him is using his drug use as an excuse. If he can't handle himself while abusing drugs, then he needs to be more respectful of others and not do that to himself if he KNOWS he's going to react negatively. I see it as a learning experience for him and from his apologies to Bryan, it's obvious he's used it. I'm not a huge fan of him, but I like a few of his songs. I also don't think it should be drug out this long, that's just ridiculous. Everyone makes mistakes.
I don't even know what band these people are in. Haha, but anyway, people shouldn't hold stuff against this man. He decided to make music with his life, not please the whole goddamn world with social behaviour. O_O I thought music was about music. Not about what musicians do in their private time. Coming from a ZV Stalker >.>
People still make a fuss over that? That is on the way to being three years old, friends. He's apologized and he's cool and Bryan's cool so why don't we all just be cool? He's great at what he does and he is him and it is dead, over, done.
Nobody says you need to like him, guys. If you can't forgive him, forget about him because really, I am kinda (completely) tired of seeing hateful comments over two-year-old shit. Most people are over it. It's not worth all the huffing and puffing; it's probably just best you go and leave him alone because that anger is not good for the soul, no no no, and who doesn't want a nice happy soul? :D
Y'know, some girl told me that he wasn't a bad person because of that interview (though it helped???), he was a bad person because he did drugs and I was literally just done. Nope. Goodbye. Peace. Gotta love people.
. . .people are still going on about that? Wasn't that in 2011? Wow.
I've seen him in concert, I am aware of his drug usage, and he's a damn good performer. He made my day with his cheery disposition and crowd interaction as well. Like you said, he's apologized. It's not as if he was threatening Bryan or actually harming him physically.
