There's Kobe Beef, Well Done Beef, and now the Legendary Guitarist Beef.
That's right, acclaimed Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards has responded to British-born six-string player Eric Clapton's vaccine skepticism.
For the past two years or so during the pandemic, Clapton has been as outspoken as anyone about his vaccine skepticism. Indeed, he has in many ways become the face of the matter, for better or worse, alongside podcast host Joe Rogan and more.
That's where Richards comes in. The musician said trust the doctors, trust the experts.
In a new interview with Rolling Stone music now podcast, Richards offered his perspective on vaccines, mandates and Clapton, saying, "I just want to get rid of this damn thing, and the only way I can see is everyone does what the doctor. »
Richards continued, “I really like Eric. I've known him forever and we've had our ups and downs… This COVID thing, it's dividing people and it's sometimes got people off track for a while, you know. I hope you think back here and do this thing.
Clapton, who has also teamed up with fellow high-profile singer Van Morrison, has become one of the biggest COVID-19 skeptics since 2020, even before the snaps became available. He was widely criticized for this, even Robert Plant commented on the situation saying, “Good old Eric. He didn't like the jab, but he eu the shot.
Clapton and Van Morrison even released the song "Stand and Deliver", which had the lyrics, Do you want to be a free man/ Or do you want to be a slave? (Yikes!) Clapton also called pro-vaccine talk “propaganda” and said he wouldn’t perform at venues requiring proof of vaccination. He said such a requirement would mean a "discriminated public". He later broke that promise and performed in venues that required proof of health.
Other high-profile artists have criticized Clapton, as well as Plant, including Brian May who said, "Anti-vax, I'm sorry, I think they're fruitcakes. KISS frontman Gene Simmons was also vocal about people not wanting to be vaccinated.
