“id rather have a room half filled with good energy than one filled with hate. people are suffering every day and the way i see it you are either part of the solution or part of the problem.”
Wavves are getting ready to hit the road for a summer tour. Before they go, the band’s Nathan Williams wants to make clear whom he does and does not make music for, as well as whom he believes is welcome at Wavves shows. Today, he tweeted, “a few things i wanted to make clear,” and shared a long note that detailed six types of people who are “not welcome at a Wavves show:” Anybody who’s said or supported #AllLivesMatter, anybody who’s “gone out of [their] way to defend police in America,” people who blame rape victims, homophobes, racists, and Donald Trump supporters.
He acknowledges that he could lose fans, but concludes, “id rather have a room half filled with good energy than one filled with hate. people are suffering every day and the way i see it you are either part of the solution or part of the problem.” See Williams’ full note below, and check out Wavves’ upcoming shows here....

Of course, the Wavves welcome all homosexual pedophile serial killers, because it would be discriminatory against the LBGT community to ban them...
Wow, guess it's a good thing they are so positive, so accepting...so loving that they don't "hate" anyone bad enough to ban them...
Oh, hmm, wait a sec... Do you think they see their own hypocrisy, their own double-standard? Bet you the answer is a big "no!"
Never heard of these aholes.
I think it’s safe to say that there are no Trump supporters that of fans of these people.
Harris, a career prosecutor, said the relationship between speech and violent action occurs “on an almost constant basis.”
“I know how painful and violent these crimes can be. I know they are uniquely insidious in that they are intended to strip its victim of dignity. So words matter,”
Kamala Harris knows that the Wavves words hurt.
Perhaps they’d prefer to have a halftime show with drowning people in cages and tossing queers off rooftops?
Looking for some free publicity. Sounds like a bunch of haters.
Will this empty little stunt get them the attention they so desperately need and want? Tune in later and find out.
I was wondering what color shoe that was. Now I know.
—Government Issue “comfort women” for the officer corps —only!
Turn on the bidet and feel the wavves ;)
Please note the number of green shoes that they were pelted with.
It was 1.
Not zero, not 2.
(The doors open at 7:00; the green shoes (one per disgruntled patron) start getting tossed at 8:00.)
I appreciate Nathan Williams’ thoughtfulness in warning me that his fan base is made up of people with whom I would not want to be in close proximity. Makes the decision to refrain from attending his concert that much easier. (Well, given that I had never heard of his group, I wasn’t too likely to be attending in the first place. But still, I do appreciate his thoughtfulness.)
Yeah, but it might be worth it.
Who?!!
