How can I filter OUT a <tagname> using adb logcat

This is related to Filter output in logcat by tagname. How can I filter out a tagname. Ex - If I don't want the tagname GNU.IO to be echoed to stdout, I would like something which would do the equivalent of - 

adb logcat | grep -v <tagname>

Unfortunately the above is not working for me.

Just set specific tag's level to S(ilent):

adb logcat <TAG>:S

as result, you'll see all messages excluding TAG

I found that this works well for what I wanted -

adb logcat -s TAG:V

logcat won't do it for you, but if you want the device to do the work, you could use adb shell:

adb shell 'logcat | grep -v <tagname>'
