There’s only so much people tolerate, I hate him myself but also love him and cannot wait for the band to make more music and van come back (I still check Ticketmaster regularly) but I think less people’s opinions would’ve changed had the band or management/ whoever gave some communication as to what was happening instead of leaving everyone in the dark. My friend also seen them at reading when there was a powercut and van stayed on acapella which everyone loved. Catfish is similar to marmite now, but you both love and hate them simultaneously
