Some records should be left to "rest in peace" and allowed to be listened to freely, that's all. Thank you for stopping by!

Damn, I think I understand Italian, in fact I don't believe I used a peremptory tone but a hypothetical one and, let me say, your phrase was still open to misinterpretation. Now you've cleared that up. Bye.
P.S: By the way, I find comment 115 by Lewis hilarious (in a positive way), so I would propose to include on the back of a Rollins ticket, in addition to the various disclaimers "the audience agrees to be potentially filmed, etc., etc.," also the one "the audience consents to be kicked by the artist, his band, and his fans" ;-)

@Azzo: maybe, however, people who haven’t seen them in person (you can’t really criticize someone for their date of birth) have still done their research; this attitude of "shut up, you haven't seen a damn thing" risks being more "fascist" than what you criticize from Rollins if taken the wrong way...

I don't know how many concerts you've seen, Azzo, but I assure you that I've seen many as well, and in any case, it's not about the quantity but the quality ;-)

But I don't think it's just a matter of education, and anyway, my friend, we're not really talking about the two of us ;-) but about a public figure who, by choosing to be one (if they had not wanted to, they could have easily continued making music in their basement), also chose to face certain even bothersome commitments. Responding rudely to a fan, for me, is like spitting on the plate you eat from, especially since there are many artists with troubled backgrounds who have wonderful relationships with their admirers. Take it as a provocation, but for me telling a fan to fuck off is like Marini hitting a paparazzo (both mistreat their source of livelihood). You're right about the RHCP, that was also a provocation ;-)

You see, we reason with different parameters: someone who tells another to go fuck himself just for a question, I don't respect that; I just find him rude, but I'm probably just too well accustomed by my "heroes" (whatever one might think). When it comes to money/costs, one could discuss it at length to the point of exhausting the readers, but I wouldn't be surprised if in the end (by genuinely counting people’s wallets) it turned out that, to quote another group I'm quite indifferent to, the Red Hot Chili Peppers are more "generous" than Rollins. That's all.

Sofisms, Supersoul, I grasped the connotation but I chose to get to the point. This is not a contest of dialectics nor is it a conflict (I think you know that I respect you); it is simply my attempt to understand where the objectivity of the analysis ends (in this review, not in your other works) and where the mere trust (or faith, if you will) in a character (not person, character) begins.

Alessio, if you are certain that he is not fabricated, I cannot contradict you because it is your sacred right. However, honestly, I cannot understand the criteria by which, according to you, the PJ (the name you mention... and I am neutral here because I feel neither hot nor cold about them) are either fake or something else. I wouldn’t want you to confuse artistic validity with something that simply had poor commercial promotion, that’s all.

@Supersoul: I think we’re misunderstanding each other in terms: "he will deny it" I skipped on purpose because I find it an unnecessary embellishment to justify the character (character, not person, I repeat, only he knows how it really is) and it didn't seem to add anything to the context. I believe it’s clear that what I mean is that the impression is that with Rollins you’re willing to forgive a lot when perhaps it's neither more nor less "constructed" than with others. You give him certainty, while to others not even the benefit of the doubt, and the motivations aren’t very clear (since I don't believe you know him personally nor the butchers).
