FAQ, since I keep seeing the same comments get posted: Q: Were Max and Chad at this show? A: No, that was the Melbourne show. The show in this video was the Adelaide show, one day beforehand. Q: Doesn't Joji not like when people bring up Filthy Frank? A: So I see people say this all the time, with no evidence to prove their point, but I just want to say that I completely disagree. If he really was just acknowledging it to not seem rude, he would have done the bare minimum. But he not only joked about Frank coming out on stage, but pointed out not just one, but two cosplayers in the audience. And, he's done this at multiple shows now. That doesn't seem to me like someone who's trying to avoid talking about it at all costs. Q: But you're wrong! He just didn't ignore it because he didn't want to be rude, but he actually doesn't like it! A: At this show, he ignored tons of stuff that people yelled out, including almost the whole crowd telling him to do a "shoey" (see my full show video). If he wanted to ignore this, he could have handled it the same way. Q: But people shouldn't bring it up at all! A: At the end of the day, people can do what they want. Filthy Frank arguably kick-started his music career, and you can't just tell people to forget about it. Joji can then respond however he likes, including ignoring it, but he has chosen to respond in this way. He also took that recent photo with Max and Chad, which clearly shows he has no issues embracing his past. I hope a Cold Ones episode with Joji does indeed come out, so we can put this idea of him avoiding all connections with Filthy Frank to bed.

Thank you my good sir for the well-articulated answers to these far too common questions and general statements by people who've never once spoken with Joji or gone to a live performance. To be honest I've actually thought this myself but not to the extreme or to the point of.a Karen and telling others off on the internet because for what? lmao I love Papa Franku aNd Joji. I'm glad to see he is still successful and was able to grow as an individual and as an artist. Joji is one of my favorite Artistd I've got his entire discography on my phone in lossless format. I could listen to his music all day, and you KNOW I'm singing along always!!!

To be fair I don't think him taking a picture or hanging out with Max and Chad is indicative of how he feels about frank. I don't think he regrets it, but I do think some people take it a bit far. Whether it upsets him or not is something we will never know, however it would be lame if things like this happen throughout his career.

He's really really popular here in Australia (where this concert was) due to him also being half Australian aswell. I went to this concert (right in the middle of the front row) and he made so many jokes about filthy frank and that. Ine of the best performances I've seen live and laughed my ass off when he acknowledged both guys dressed as filthy frank because I saw them a few times during thst festival haha

It's so nice that people go to his show dressed as pink guy. From what i know his fanbase in the old days hated that he stopped doing comedy to chase a more serious music career, so having people from that era going to a joji show is like it came full circle.
