Goldfinger’s John Feldmann Holds Lobster Liberation Parties
Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, October 8th, 2008 in Male Musicians, Male Singers.
John Feldmann, also known as “Feldy,” of the band, Goldfinger, is an outspoken vegan and animal rights activist. In fact, he may have been too outspoken for the FBI once, as they raided his home on suspicions of his role with an incident involving Animal Liberation Front, an animal rights group known for making statements in a radical fashion. He later sued for them putting his home in disarray and snatching his possessions and won.
When he throws parties, they’re big. To the sum of 110 guest or more. Did we forget to mention most of the guests are lobsters?
“We’ve done a couple lobster liberations; one in Hawaii, two in Boston, and one in Maine. I saw a tank of lobsters and I said, “I could do something about this right now.” We took all the lobsters and put them back in the ocean. Because of shock, I’m sure a lot of them died. Even if only one or two of them lived, it’s a better chance of survival than in the tank at the grocery store. I saw the lobsters in there and what could I do?”
