To be fair, Smashmouth singer Steve Harwell did warn us that he wasn’t “the sharpest tool in the shed.” Maybe that explains why Smashmouth decided it was a good idea to play the packed South Dakota Sturgis Biker rally this past weekend, without a single face mask in sight.
“Fuck that COVID shit!” Harwell yelled out at one point, which, sure — COVID is pretty terrible, but gathering thousands of unmasked drunken bikers in one place might just be the sort of “super spreader” event that ensures traditional concerts take even longer to come back.
The band’s decision to play immediately led to a slew of denunciations online, including from Warped Tour founder Kevin Lyman who tweeted:
This is one more reason we will not see shows in the near future, or any future if it keeps happening. Sets the whole business back every time it does. Every time this happens it messes it up for those who want to do it right.
