Question: I'm playing a show in the future at which I know my semi-recent ex and all of our mutual friends will be in attendance. If include a song about them in my setlist am I a shitty person?

I vibe with the lighting in that picture. Eh, just play your songs. Although, I think it's kind of bad style to explicitly identify the people you write about.

I mean I'm not going to say, "Okay everyone, this one's about ____! Are you ready kids?"
>>63718908
Yes
>>63719407
:/ How shitty? It doesn't directly identify them, and they'd probably be the only one who would know for sure it was about them.
idk it's a good song and I want to play it but I don't want to be a massive dick

I really like this picture
and no not really I guess but depends what song

In my experience I've had a friend that did this and it just seemed immature.
I guess it depends on why your ex decided to come to the show. If it's for any sort of stupid malicious reason, I'd say it's up to you.

It's a nice picture

We both work at the same venue
Eh maybe I shouldn't play it
definitely depends on the content of the song and context of your breakup
>>63718908
Would you be willing to post the lyrics?
>>63719879
Fair enough

Eh I'm hesitant because I'm pretty sure they browse /mu/, but basically it describes in abstract terms something that happened to the two of us after we broke up (no one else else was present). It's fairly narrative/symbolic, and not as much directly about the person.

lmao its a girl it will be very unlikely she would understand any of it
and if its a guy
YOUR GAY! LOL
Just play the song, don't give it an introduction. Let your energy and stage presence speak for you. You're not a 15 year old trying to get back at his cheating girlfriend. It's music, play the fucking song and have fun.
