When Olivia Rodrigo announced Daisy Chain Fields, her long-awaited all-female music festival, the music world had one overwhelming response: it was about time. What nobody anticipated was that the conversation would be hijacked by a drummer from an all-male indie band, publicly announcing his band’s absence from a lineup they weren’t eligible to perform in the first place.
Jacob Tomsky, 47, drummer of Cigarettes After Sex, has since deleted the comment. The people on the internet, however, still want to say their piece.
Under a TikTok video of that very interview, Tomsky, 47, dropped a since-deleted comment: ‘We won’t be there lol tf’. When a baffled user asked him to explain, he replied: ‘I mean, it feels like some forced promo for a festival, right? I’m just saying our band won’t be performing there.’
What a garbage headline. Should read “Man not invited to play all female music festival says he’s not going”
Cigarettes After Sex are essentially if Spinal Tap’s “Lick My Love Pump” was shoegaze. The music’s very pretty, but there’s a Vice-Magazine/American-Apparel sleaziness about the songs.
What a perfectly accurate description of that band lol
Had a few Cigarettes After Sex songs in my liked list that are going away honestly.
So salty for not being invited to a festival they aren’t even eligible to play in.
