At their recent Sydney show, Kyle Gass was given a birthday cake and asked to make a wish for his 64th birthday, to which he said "Don't miss Trump next time."

In his later statement, Black said he was "blindsided" by his bandmate's comment and condemned any calls for political violence.

Thankfully, it's not the commentary I was afraid he'd offered. JB sounds spineless in this, it was a joke and an honest expression of the very real existential fear people feel towards Trump rule.

I fucking hate this. Trump gets on mic everyday to wish death on some innocent groups of people but we're fucking forbidden from joking about it towards him?

Edit: I hope everyone who downvotes me gets very peacefully and nonviolently re-educated.

Well there goes my respect for JB, is he a secret Trump supporter?

He’s a very popular actor/musician that isn’t looking to wade into any controversy that might damage his popular brand.

He did go to Biden's fundraiser in L.A.
