Why do celebrities think they are so valuable and relevant? I never understood why he became famous. He isn't even a good writer. His books are boring. 

And he looks like a pedo. 

Stephen King's comment about Charlie Kirk led to a massive apology from the horror writer.However, that wasn't good enough for everyone. In fact, bookstores began to pull his books from the shelves. Belfast Books, which is based in Ireland, didn't take kindly to his words and was among those to take action. They wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter, "We thought so much more of you @StephenKing, and even though this may harm us financially, we’re removing all your books from our website. An absolutely abhorrent and ill-informed comment in the first instance that an inchoate apology doesn’t begin to cover. Go further." His death became a contentious topic as the world weighed in. Some people expressed deep sympathies and mourning, while others highlighted Charlie's hateful rhetoric. Among them, Stephen vocally condemned Charlie's words before accidentally sharing misinformation that Charlie called for LGBTQ+ individuals to be stoned to death.Irish bookstore bans all Stephen King books after 'abhorrent' Charlie Kirk comments

His books are slow. It takes the first 75% of the book before anything interesting happens.

Stephen King stuff way better in Movies than reading the actuall book...

That said alotta people like Live Concerts rather than the Studio Recorded Album.

In my opinion very afew handfuls of bands did better "Live Shows" than the Studio Recorded Record.

The Grateful Dead was one of em too the Live Show better than Studio Recorded Album I actally been Alpine Valley back on the 1980s..

Most the others live sound like a Neihgborhood "Bar Band' doing the County Fairs and Taverns atlest in cheap equiptment and sound quality
