(OT) Danzig getting knocked silly.

[benrand]

I think Danzig is a musician...

I never liked this guy, and if you read about the situation, Danzig lied to these guys and told them they were going on after him so they drove 6 hrs to the gig...kinda stupid for them, but a d*ck move by Danzig. Then Danzig pushed the guy.

I've met plenty people playing gigs who deserved soemthing like this.

LANGUAGE and VIOLENCE...so watch it if you're at work.

Subject: I beat up Glen Danzig last night!


Bad show with Danzig last night. I posted this on Blabbermouth.com before he tries to sue me for knocking him out. Read this and die with laughter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Before crazy rumors begin to spread I would like to explain what happened:

North Side Kings were to play with Danzig last night in Tuba City, Arizona. To make a long story short the whole show was a disaster and a few bands got bumped off. Mr. Danzig (or his managment??) refused to push back the original scheduled time slot so North Side Kings and Rapid Fire would have to play "after" his set. Whatever- we agreeded to play later because we drove 6 hours and didn't feel like going home without playing.

Needless to say, as soon as Danzig was finished, the venue turned on the lights and Danzigs crew and the staging company began to take the stage apart almost instantly. I confronted Mr. Danzig backsatge while he was signing autographs and told him I thought he was an asshole because of his "rockstar" attitude and no consideration twords the FEW other bands that got bumped off tonight. In a fit of rage he turned around and slammed me into the wall yelling "fuck you motherfucker" trying to be a big toughguy in front of his fans. I -in self defence punched him in the face knocking him out as he was attacking me again. He went down, bleeding from his mouth, eyes rolled back, and in shock that he got knocked to the floor so quickly.

A friend happened to tape the entire incident and this is all documented. Many witnesses saw him attack me, and I did what any man would do.

It was unfortunate that this went the way it did -and I hoped Glen Danzig learned a valuable lession tonight - Do not lay your hands on anyone unless you can handle what may happen.

I aploigize for nothing, except for the poor little kids that had to witness this big asshole get his ass kicked in a matter of seconds.....

Danny M
North Side Kings[/i]

and here is the video...


I love how the Danzig fans are calling the other dude a "cheap shot asshole" for dropping Danzig like a bitch. LOL </div>

A couple of guys I've actually played for deserved this. Too bad I didn't mete it out to them. ;c) I knew then & now that it was better if I didn't, but that doesn't mean that I didn't nec want to. I just let the Big Man, the Head Honcho, take care of it, if you know what i mean. But it's difficult sometimes. Altho i would say it's best to avoid & keep a clear head, sometimes you just gotta go with the feeling & these things happen. I don't really know who was right in this sit. becasue i wasn't there, but if the accounts are true, & zig laid hands on Dan first, it's pretty much what may well happen.

Then again, in this sit., we ain't talking about Yanni & Kenny G, here. And we "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love," either.

I dare say you broke his nose! Went down in a heap didn't he

[CLWarunki]

Danzig always seemed like a total asshole, infact - didn't he get beat up at some festival in europe too? What a fool. I heard he was like 5'6'' and much shorter than people think. I have yet to see this knockout video, would not download.

P.S. What does this have to do with drumming!?

[Vdrummer]

Isn't it Olfactory?

[FuseU1]

Nothing.

Except that the other guy evidently did the Tyson/Aldridge Rudimental Excercise & Tap Dance on his cranium. Olifactory region, to be exact. [..."Big words"...lucky I could spell it.]
