I recently heard a rumor about me and Spotify. I don’t know where it started, but it didn’t start with me or anyone who represents me.

In response, I have started Joe Rogen playing in the background along with other podcasts. If a few thousand hits help then so be if. I also searched on Neil young sucks.

If I am not wrong, Rogan’s contract is $100M+

I’m sure Rogan was smart enough to have a cancellation clause. What would it cost Spotify to cancel Rogan?

Gang of Four were openly socialist. (Made some great music tho.)

Neil Young has NEVER been about free speech or liberty. (Powderfinger is a great song tho.)

To hell with those intolerant fascists who want to silence anyone who disagrees with them. I certainly won’t miss them. As anyone who has read my music posts on this site knows, I will take Victor Young over Neil Young, Bob Crosby over David Crosby, and Guy Mitchell over Joni Mitchell any day.

Good deal. If you have a tablet or iPhone …. Just login start the podcast, turn volume down and keep surfing FR. Lol. Screw them.

...In a show of support, Nils Lofgren also had his music removed from Spotify. “We will miss the $3.28 we get a year but we will forge ahead righteously,” the rocker’s wife remarked via Twitter...

LOL!

I’m halfway done with some podcast that I haven’t heard a word of. I have viewed about 30 FR treads. I donate to FR but don’t pay for Spotify. So I feel ok with that approach to this BS.

have fun. I do recommend listening to the JR Malone Or JR McCullough and JR Peterson casts. They ate long but worth it. I haven’t figured out how to run it at 1,25 speed. That’s my sweet spot. 1.5 is too fast for me. In my youth, who knows.

The thing I like about JR is his guests (usually) talk more than he does. That’s what I’m like, especially on a subject I’m interested in.

Yoko Ono has threatened to have her music added to Spotify unless Joe Rogan is removed...

Too slow and drawn out. I like the Original ‘Sound of Silence’ song better. Funny thing is I actually came up with my own lyrics altered for Islam . If I can find it I might even post them.

Just pinging people I look for. Maybe someone can start a Spotify recommendation of the day / week thread. Some good content out there. Not sure if it’s against FR rules. So many great topics to choose from.

See my tagline. These days, I’m more into Strauss, Chopin, Mozart, with a little Dave Brubeck and Aaron Lewis thrown into my mixtape.

"we’ve removed over 20,000 podcast episodes related to COVID-19"

Spotify is fine with censorship in general but not for one of their big money makers.

You’re a damn commie if you’re pulling your music because of free speech. Screw all the commie “artists”.

Spotify’s market cap went up $4BILLION in the days after their Rogan signing announcement. They won’t be cancelling Rogan.
