What did this accomplish? This person is down $4,000 and sellers just made money off of someone that isn't even a fan. Sounds like a win for everyone but the person that destroyed the guitar. If I sold my car to someone, I don't give a flying fuck what they do with it. I got paid and it's none of my concern anymore.
The article states the auction money was going to charity anyway.
Although I guess he could have donated the $4k and someone else would have still paid about $4k for the actual guitar, for a theoretical donation sum of about $8k.
How much did you pay for the chunk of his guitar? The one he ruthlessly smashed at the end of the show. And how much will he pay for a brand new guitar? One which he'll ruthlessly smash at the end of another show. And how long will the workers keep building him new ones? As long as their soda cans are red, white, and blue ones
Your self-destruction doesn't hurt them. Your chaos won't convert them. They're so happy to rebuild it. You never really killed it. Excess ain't rebellion. You're drinking what they're selling.
