Wayne Kramer went on a tirade against President Donald Trump as the MC50 show in Philadelphia as the show was wrapping up, according to an Alternative Nation reader. Soundgarden’s Kim Thayil and Faith No More’s Billy Gould are also members of MC50.
He said, “We have a problem in this country. This country is in serious trouble, when we have a white nationalist, white supremacist criminal in the White House.”
As soon as he paused from saying that, a loud “Fuck off!!” echoed across the hall. Couldn’t see who it was, so the lone dissenter must have done it in an inconspicuous manner. After he wrapped up the whole speech I kept hearing “..fucking nazis here.” Where’s the Nazi?” “Fucking Nazi!”
MC50 are currently touring North America, with stops in most major cities in the United States planned. Soundgarden and Pearl Jam drummer Matt Cameron performed with the band in Europe over the summer, and is expected to be a guest performer at select North American shows according to Kim Thayil.
