The column said trauma, he joked. As a Canadian that doesn’t throw urine bottles at people trying to do a good thing, this was embarrassing

What in the ...

I ate 7g of shrooms on the hour walk to that concert. Waiting in line at the gate with 20,000. I could feel every person and see the air. What a show. 30$ for all those bands. Awesome

Trauma... That kinda debases the word as it applies to those who experienced real trauma

I was at that show. He was there trying to raise money. He put on a great show. It was a shame the crowd did that to him.

Sleeping rejuvenates the mind making it sharper and more analytical so imagine being asleep for a very long time then u finally wake up...JT experienced the butt of that and so will many others like him

I don't want to diminish his experience, if he is correctly using the term 'trauma.' But I'm waiting for someone to ask him about his inaction after Janet Jackson's career was derailed from her Superbowl performance with him.

This has a lot to do with his language. I think he read the room wrong
