Not my first rodeo in this industry so was pretty excited to see them live. Been into the scene for years, have family that is part of the community and a group of 3 of us went as it was my Christmas Gift to them. At 100.00 a ticket we expected a bit more than just a small tv screen on the stage for sets with a few dancers and costume changes.
Their script was fine, singing by Jinx was great and DeLa was fun too. I was not impressed with bible bashing and name calling. I am catholic and was there loving and supporting them and to have a whole section where Jinx bashed the bible and Catholics... i almost left. I stayed to be fair and hear their side. But to call out an institution for something by doing the exact same thing was... uncomfortable for me. They said THIS BOOK was judging and sharing hate and then they judged and hated on me... somebody that was sitting there that paid money to support them. All 3 of us felt the same.
I unfollowed Jinx the next day on instagram as I felt as a straight catholic woman I was made fun of, called names and grouped as a hypocritical bullshitter, the words she used. Perhaps those types of views are better for a smaller more concentrated group of demographics than a general all ages public show...but that is just my opinion.
Would I go again? No
Glad I went? Yes
To judge somebody as hateful and mean and dangerous then to do the same to them and not be considered judgmental, mean and dangerous as well is a bit too "woke" for me. Fair is fair.
I do believe their hearts are in the right place, they were beautiful, talented and funny. But to take a turd in a big pot of soup, ruined the whole pot for me....left a bad taste in my mouth.
Love and support can only come from love and support....not more bashing.
