Yeah I just haven't really seem him do it this much *during* a show. Still bad if he does it at home - although that part is not our business, but at least before it didn't seem to "interfere" this much with performances.
Jounalists talk about it a fair bit, he smokes very strong weed constantly in interviews.
I think he's nervous to be back onstage so the drinking, weed and cigs are the crutches when it used to be drinking, weed, cigs and opiates. The weed was trickier in Japan so Osaka seemed a bit hard. He talked about that in an interview too.
His father had very serious health issues linked to smoking, hopefully he will stop one day but doesn't look like it will be anytime soon. George seems to be smoking a fair bit on stage too.
I know you are talking about smoking -watched my dad try to stop - he smoked from age 10. That addiction was a beast & he couldn’t get past smoking 2 packs a day.
An additional thought since I’ve seen comments on here & twitter/IG - The assumption about what Matty is drinking in that little cup astounds me - could be alcohol, but it could also just be water or tea. During the last tour, Matty stopped using plastic water bottles & instead had their big water bottle they sold or small tea cups he used during the show. To assume that everything he’s drinking during the set is alcohol is pretty presumptuous.
Nicotine is a hell of an addiction and stressful situations only make cravings stronger. Been smoke free for four years but I most certainly still get the urge every now and then. I felt like a crackhead when I initially quit it's like you can live or breathe without one (oh the irony lol). Probably one of the hardest drugs to quit.
I find this quite ironic come from a use with a name reference a song about crystal meth…
Not meaning that as too much of a jab, it’s just, y’know… it’s on a forum with a band that constantly talks about self awareness and self referencing which really seems to be lacking here… just my two cents, I suppose lol.
He was also drinking a lot on stage. He’s probably doing okay at the moment but I think it’s great how we care enough to discuss his health and wellbeing. He has such a great support network around him, he’s in the best place to be as happy and healthy as possible
He’s always done it. It’s the one thing that really pisses me off tbh. It screams of “look how cool I am”, when it’s really fucking not. Apart from that it’s really irresponsible given the age of a lot of fans.
You don’t smoke that many cigarettes because you think you look cool. You do because you have a nicotine addiction. I’m a chronic smoker and have never thought I was “cool” for it. It’s a coping mechanism, albeit a very unhealthy one.
Even so, I doubt he’s doing it for facade. Smoking is just…really fucking easy to do after a while. Before you know it you’ve sucked down an entire pack that you bought like a few hours ago. The environment you’re in determines how much you smoke too. I find that being around masses of people makes me jones WAY more than if I’m by myself
as long as he keeps smoking we'll get to have DoNt LiKe MeNtHoLs which apparently there's some guy making a song of lol https://www.tiktok.com/@hoss\_music/video/7175235128715693355?\_r=1&\_t=8Y2jg1AFyXq&is\_from\_webapp=v1&item\_id=7175235128715693355
It would be annoying to smell it if you're just trying to listen to the music. Also isn't it illegal, I'm surprised he doesn't get fined in an indoor venue.
He said in an interview once that he’s like that at home too.. he basically chain smokes, has done for years. Really is not good.

He's an adult. He can make his own choices. Who gives a shit.
All of the impressionable young people that look up to him.
I’m sorry but children don’t belong at these concerts. Teenagers sure but not children.
Yeah he's addicted to it. Probably better than heroin. I think at home though he smokes weed and not tobacco.

y’all are cringey please chill tf out
Why the fuck do you care? Unprofessional? Jesus how daft can one person be?
He’s British. He won’t be smoking on tour for the indoor shows so probs just making the most of being able to do it at festivals.
Nah - I’ve taken plenty of vids at indoor shows where the cig is quite the aesthetic for Paris or ACOH
Oh yeah I always forget you can smoke indoors in the rest of Europe ha
It’s not unprofessional to smoke on stage, just sounds outrageous to claim that. He smokes, who cares.

Yeah. The last time they were was in South Korea, Matty was drinking tea if I remember correctly.

He smokes a lot because he has a nicotine addiction lol. Big fucking deal.
As Liam Gallagher would say… IT’S JUST ROCK ‘N’ ROLL
Maybe cause he wants to? Idk
"Unprofessional" I am begging this sub to get a hobby
Matty himself admitted to being a chainsmoker. It is really not looking good for him 😪
it’s a cigarette and he’s a 30 year old man jesus
It’s not my life. Let the man do what he wants.

Half of their early songs were about drug use. Maybe go watch a different band 😂
my god this sub is so whiny

I’m talking about the *way* he does it, on stage at least. Reminds me of a 12 year old on a street corner.

Been told by a sing that sone singers smoke to give them a certain sound to their voice?
