He could have picked the right side. Still would have ended the tour, but at least he'd have been on the right side.

$65 is how much concert tickets should cost anyway

No one respects genocide supporters.

He's such a piece of shit tickets to see him are now reasonably priced.
I feel bad for those who bought tickets before this shitshow. Even if you intended to sell them off as a "fuck you" to Ed, you'd be stuck with them.
I can't imagine how one can screw up this bad.
If money is what they pursue, the literally best choice would be just not say anything and let Macklemore to speak up for Palestine. People would continue to attend events, money would continue to pour.
Whole business model ruined because of someone's poor ass being too sissy about political stance of one of the musicians.
replies:
Good, hope they lose a ton of $$. Fuck Ed.
I am sad that "Beoga" has cancelled their small venue concert in Boston. I went looking for tickets when I noticed the play date on their YouTube channel.
I thought he ended up canceling the rest of the tour?
Fucking lol
He probably just did what most ppl do already and listened to the opinions of whoever around him he trusts on these issues. Celebrities are not advocates, politicians, or activists, those who got bad advice are gonna get fucked by the mob.

Why is everyone hating on Sheeran? Sure his decision is disappointing but I 100% believe him when he says he was pressured by Kraft and management to do this and had to decide and the support acts also don't seem to be bitter about Ed Sheeran, they seem to just make a statement.
I really don't like how Ed Sheeran is getting all the hate. I think Kraft should be the one to get the full shitstorm for this. All of this was 95% his doing, Ed Sheeran just folded.

How to blow up your career in one easy step.
replies:
Still too expensive
Make it go below $50!
@return2ozma karma comes quick.
replies:
Imagine they get Kid Rock to join the tour.
But...he's "not complicit". LOL. Get fucked Ed.
Good, fuck him.
Something something, vote with your wallet, I guess...
Calm down guys, he probably has insurance for genocide related incidents
$65 is still more than I would pay to see somebody I actually wanted to see.
Kinda scummy for Rolling Stone to advertise for him tbh.
Everyone is going to go to see Ed Sheeran because they think it'll be empty and they'll get a private show. But they'll all inadvertently make it his biggest sellout yet.
I'm kinda surprised there aren't more genocide supporters buying tickets.
