I knew Canadians wouldn’t stand for his bullhooey. You don’t wanna mess with Canada.

UPDATE: His band just canceled their final dates in Canada due to ‘flu’… For those of you unfamiliar with Canada, ‘flu’ means ‘being loudly booed offstage in Toronto”. And the article where I read about it (on CNN, fuck the link, they don’t need the plug) contained this wonderful gem:

“Thornton promotes a mythology that his “cosmic cowboy” music came together years ago after a fight over coleslaw at a Los Angeles chicken restaurant.”

What a shithead. I hope he fails in all his endeavors. Imagine not being able to leave your high school band because the kid with the popped collars got famous nationwide.

I just realized that I got the band’s name wrong — I even tagged the entry incorrectly. It’s Box Masters, not Box Cutters. Oops. The radio host says Box Cutters at one point and it stuck with me. I sure hope Billy Bob doesn’t become a passive aggressive douche with Schad.net…

Tom Petty was married to a CNN producer?

You got me again, Connor!

I forgot to mention that the best part of the coverage of this story on CNN (besides the very fact that CNN was covering it), was that they kept calling him, “Angelina Jolie’s ex, Billy Bob Thornton”. Wha?!? They were married for about 5 minutes over 5 years ago?

Guess the producers of CNN didn’t get the memo about that qualifier either…

C’mon Kate, would you put up a post about Tom Petty if HE had attitude on a radio interview???

And can someone direct me to the Cosmic Cowboy section at Reckless?

Oh Billy, you sling bladin’, musicologistical d-bag…

Oh how tired. BBT is upset that his “movie career” was mentioned. I really think it is because of his acting that his band is even considered for interviews. Just my humble opinion. I am so bored with “celebs” who are so arrogant, and pissy like this Man? is. Frankly if I was the host I would not have bothered talking to him at all.

Oh what fun it must be to be in a band with Billy Bob. Just look at those guys. You can just tell they dread the fact that without Billy’s Hollywood cache they wouldn’t be shit.

WHAT AN ASS! This is why I’m not a radio show host. I would have either ended the interview or just would have laid into him. What a douche!

And oh, apparently there was a sale at the “Black Frame Glasses” store.
