We’ve hope you’ve enjoyed following the “ vs. Brunch” scandal as much as we have. And if you haven’t, allow us to catch you up.
In an , Casablancas was quoted saying, I don’t know how many, like, white people having brunch I can deal with on a Saturday afternoon.”
Well, after Twitter lashed out at Casablancas as being anti-brunch, he responded in another , defending his love of brunch and bashing the GQ reporter.
“God, that quote. People are mad about it! Itap so true, but I guess you can’t say it. That GQ reporter was bogus, anyway. He was a total part-of-the-problem yuppie guy,” Casablancas said
Monday afternoon, Casablancas went on what he called a Twitter rant to deliver a statement on brunch, and also address Strokes relations and some thoughts on journalism.
Here’s his rant:
clarification on a couple of silly press things:
— Julian Casablancas (@Casablancas_J)
for the record, i was specifically joking about when people dress up like it's the kentucky derby for LES brunch.
— Julian Casablancas (@Casablancas_J)
i am not against the concept of weekend late breakfast, which people of all freedoms & hues should enjoy
— Julian Casablancas (@Casablancas_J)
2nd, there were times with theStrokes when maybe we had some issues, but they are resolved now (and have been for a little while now)
— Julian Casablancas (@Casablancas_J)
and i very much enjoy playing with them!
— Julian Casablancas (@Casablancas_J)
…with music journalism, like in most arts, there are definitely many very good ones and few great ones
— Julian Casablancas (@Casablancas_J)
ps should twitter invert their order so the last twits are at the bottom (so you can read them downwards/normally?)
— Julian Casablancas (@Casablancas_J)
unless it's on purpose as part of their originality, in which case i should be ignored
(as i should be anyway on this)
— Julian Casablancas (@Casablancas_J)
just ranting from my high twyttor horse.
