Remember when the water was bad in Mexico and the jobs were in Flint MI? Well, as a matter of fact, I do.....
Would a potential Standing Rock joke by Mike told at a BB show bother you? Just curious. I happen to think it's bad taste to make jokey stage banter out of tragedies. Call me crazy.
I remember when I saw The Cult in concert in 2007. The show was in downtown Baltimore, and Ian Astbury joked that "you got some scary looking neighborhoods here." Most of the audience laughed.
While I'm not offended by a joke like that, as long as the joke isn't in really poor taste, in this day and age with smart phones recording everything, I think it's better practice to say away. It doesn't take much at all for an offbeat remark to be captured on a phone, and turned into something bigger than it really needs to be.
True dat.
