He's a musician. It's a gig.

Who gives a fuck?

Is he any good? Is he Ted Nugent? (meaning does he publicly make it obvious he's a douchebag dumbass?)

Then so what?

Let him play, let him take his check and deposit it and let him move on.

I always thought he played a mean guitar. If he wants to vote Republican, I won't hold it against him.
