Once-beloved Kevin Drew is now just really obnoxious (we get it, your band broke up)
Tonight is the last Broken Social Scene show ever (at least until they decide to have another reunion), and Kevin Drew does not want his fans to forget it. For the last 40 minutes or so (he is currently taking a break), instead of just saying thanks once, he has chosen to prove how much he loves people by retweeting every single tweet that mentions his user name (go ahead, try it, it’s @kevinselection). This isn’t the first time Broken Social Scene has parted ways, since most members have their own solo projects and kind of just come and go, but for some reason this seems very final—and if it isn’t, we’re privy to a very dramatic cry for attention. If this is the end, it has been a long road, and we’re sorry what’s broken can’t be repaired.

Why the hate, TorontoLife??
Even if the band’s hiatus is only temporary, those of us who have felt a connection to the music just wanted to take a moment today to thank Kevin et al for everything they’ve shared with us.
And, why shouldn’t Drew re-Tweet the well-wishers?? The Twitterverse could use a little LoveFest now and then.
Thanks again to all the players who, year after year, let us in on their Social Scene…even if it was a little Broken right from the start.
Agree completely with FrostBiteBoy.
BSS has touched a lot of lives,and Kevin Drew just wants everybody to know the feeling is mutual, and it doesn’t seem like there is enough of that openness in the world these days.
So he flooded the twitter feed with love, It took up a little chuck of your time. Their last hiatus was 5 years, and to close fans to the band, that is an eternity.
Just like his newest tweet says, to all of the negatives, just unfollow him, he doesn’t need that easy bullshit in his life.
Too many people complaining over nothing, I don’t get it.
