Relaaaaaaaaax...

So, I have always been a bit defensive about people I care about or celebrities that I adore. Don’t get me wrong, I’m pretty objective and pretty unbiased. I can say “that’s fucked up” when it’s fucked up and I can say “STFU” as needed. So let’s move on from this paragraph and have a little fun. Keep in mind I have ADHD and it’s too late for me to take my meds, so if I bounce from topic to topic, sorry get over it.

Working for the bank for a little over three years, you learn some interesting things. The coworkers you have and the people you meet impart wisdom on you or they inspire wisdom in you. Either that or you just learn something. For example, I have learned that “so dark” can refer to so much more than color or how well lit a room is. I have also learned that customers are generally not the brightest light bulbs on the shelf. But enough of the silly things I have learned! Let’s get to the “wisdom”.

One of the greater “wisdoms” passed down to me from Great Master Li Yang is that there are customers (we’ll call them people in this entry) who don’t understand and there are people who won’t understand. So let’s take Master Yang’s words of wisdom and apply it to this current situation with Quest Crew (didn’t see that coming, huh?).

For those of you who don’t know, and my general reader(s) probably don’t, Quest Crew did not perform at their North Carolina show as planned. Something or another happened and it just didn’t happen. No one knows the details for sure at this point, and everyone’s guessing. Well, I don’t care (yet). What I do care about is all those nasty messages plaguing their “Questbook”.

Everyone needs to take a chill pill. Both sides.

And now, because I have ADHD and have lost my train of thought too many times to get it back (I think it left the station altogether), I’m going to get straight to the point. As of this moment, there has been no real news as to what happened at the show. I cannot defend them as much as I want to because I do not know the facts. I do, however, know what I believe. I believe that they are good people and that whatever happened in North Carolina was unintentional and stuff happens. I believe that as good people they did not mean to upset their fans or “flake” on a show that people paid money to see. But of course a character witness can only go so far. So even if my testimony isn’t as solid as a rock, I hope it counts for something.

Now, as for the prosecution (that’s all the people pointing fingers out there), their testimony isn’t any better. It might actually be worse than mine is. The only fact we know right now is that they didn’t perform as scheduled. To say that they have changed as people and that they don’t appreciate their fans is like trying to convict a person when mens rea hasn’t been taken into consideration. Where’s the argument to support the claim?

Back to my “wisdom” mentioned earlier. I mentioned this for all those people who are avidly trying to defend Quest Crew. There are people out there who don’t understand and that can be reasoned with. Then there are people who refuse to understand. Those people aren’t worth your time. Let it go. I could write pages and pages about this, but I’ll save it for another day.

But really, people need to stops sipping on their Haterade and get over it. And don’t tell me that they’re too tall because they bend over backwards a lot and enough to get over it! Take that last sentence as you will.
