Father John Misty Declares "It's What's Outside That Matters"

Josh Tillman (aka Father John Misty) took home a Grammy Sunday night for the packaging of his third album Pure Comedy. Unfortunately, Tillman was not at the award ceremony to accept his award because he was on tour in Australia. Not being at the award show would not deter Tillman from giving a speech. Instead, the cynical bearded folk man graced his Sydney audience with one of the best Grammy acceptance speeches of the 2018 awards. From center stage Tillman said,

"I just wanna say fuck society, I just wanna say that this government is a criminal organization, uhhhh FlatEarth.com, please go check that out. And you know when I was growing up everyone told me—you know, whether it was like mom, or dad, or the church, schoolteachers, whoever, you know—everybody was always saying that like, it's what's on the inside that matters. And I think this is really evidence of the fact that it's what's outside that matters. Thank you, god bless."
