What a total wanker Billy Bob is. I was very impressed with Jian's response. A true pro. But he's at the CBC? Maybe some of them are ok?

I wasn't even aware that Billy Bob had a musical career until this incident happened so they couldn't be too "famous". I think the host had every right to talk about his acting/directing so the listeners would have a general idea of who was being interviewed. It seems to me Mr. Thornton walked in there looking for a fight. He just made things worse by not only bad mouthing the host the next day but by canceling his remaining tour dates in Canada. What a way to gain Canadian fans, eh?
I would of called it quits for the rest of the Canadian tour if I was him too after that debacle.
Hillbilly rock sucks anyways.

"There is plenty of context without all that"
Is there? As Taraa said, I never knew he had a music career of any sort before this. Anyone actually ever heard him sing/play? Is he any good? Would he have been opening for Willie Nelson if he hadn't become famous for having been Angelina's husband?
*Edit*
Come to think of it, I never heard of him as an actor either until he married her.

Well he's lost the opportunity to possibly double his fan base to two.

"Would you ask Tom Petty that question?"
My Response: Listen Billy Bob, you're not Tom Petty, and you never will be. So what fuckin' difference does it make to you?

If I'd been in "Armaggedon" I wouldn't want to be reminded of it all the time either.

I haven't heard boxmasters. Bet they do a mean "Them from Deliverance" though. Should cut Billybobn some slack though. It's not his fault he's an inbred alcoholic.
