They’re on a major label. Not a hope of a merch ban.
Can’t wait for loads of cunts to start rocking balaclavas, no way that will backfire 👌🏼
Best gigs ever full of energy. But it’s so funny being at there gigs and looking out in the crowd and half the people have a balaclava on .
Venues have started charging Acts a commission on merch sold at the venue, something like 30%, so acts are using these pop up shops to get around it. In Dublin. AC/DC, Coldplay. Rammstein and Taylor Swift also used popup merch shop
Bit embarrassing for them to have the PSNI call them out like this.
It’s to get around the venue taking a cut
Lads starting to believe they can outsmart their own fans.
Bad look
>Kneecap frequently call the PSNI by the old name for Northern Ireland’s police force, the Royal Ulster Constabulary, which hasn’t existed for more than 20 years.
This gave me a chuckle, the Newsletter coming to the defence of the PSNI’s honour. The RA hasn’t existed as an armed paramilitary force (not including dissies) in 20 years either but you wouldn’t get that impression reading any given edition of the Newsletter.
Also go tell Barry McCaffrey, Trevor Birney and Alex Gibney that the “RUC hasn’t existed in 20 years”. It seems they are having some issues with the RUC up until this very day!

Lol absolute cringe from lads who aren’t even old enough to remember the Troubles.
