Perhaps you’ve head the news that Shirley Manson does not want beach balls at Garbage shows or anywhere near her ever. In a moment that’s now gone viral from the band’s set at Melbourne’s Good Things festival last week, Manson angrily cussed out a man in the audience for throwing around a beach ball in what we can only assume was a rather distracting manner. Manson later clarified on Threads: “I joined a band because I HATED THE FUCKING BEACH. I joined a band because I wanted to listen to Siouxsie and the Banshees and The Cure and be dark and beautiful.”
