    Default Knuckleheads at Shows

    Here in town there is a small group of knuckleheads who show up to shows and ruin the night for everyone.
    One guy in particular ALWAYS shows up in a white bandana tied around his head (sweatband-style) and a t-shirt with the sleeves and a portion of the side cut out. He is probably about 35 years old and not in good shape..he gets VERY drunk and harasses anyone...women, men, kids...ANYONE.
    The problem is this group of guys always travle together and the are usually cranked-up pretty hard...so no one ever stands up to them...

    My band played one night and half the crowd left after this group of idiots went around the room "collecting" (read:strongarming) money from people "in honor" of their buddy who had offed himself about a month prior.

    One more story:
    on 4th of July, one of these Einsteins put a bottle rocket in a 7 year-old's hand and proceeded to get the lighter to light it...someone discovered and snatched it b4 it actually lit.!!!!...the poor 7 yr-old thought it was another sparkler which all the kids were playing with.

    Does your town have one/or a group of these guys????

    And the "nationalists" and the "sharps" are so busy fucking with each other that no one else is really effected.


    "management likes em cuz they buy booze":
    management is too scared to 86 em i think...Hell at our show they brought in a bottle of JD which they hid fairly well the first part of the night...but as they got drunk they got more bold about having it out....the manager never said a word to them ....

    Actually, I haven't been to a show that a skinhead might also attend in at least 6 years.

    I hate going to see a band that may have moments when their music is quieter & all you can hear are the fucking hipsters yakking at each other.

    No doubt...everyone behind his back is always cracking the "where's his legwarmers?" joke. Or singing "lets get physical"...
    Rediculous.

    I was at a Faith No More show ( King For A Day tour, I believe) anyway me and buddy Murph...(Not the GP Murph, I live in Boston there's a "Murph" or Callahan for every Man, Woman, and child here) Anyway Murph is about 6'5" 225, and not surprisingly enjoys a frosty beverage ever now and again. Well there was one of these yahoos on the floor just taking full out "swings" at people, Murph gets out and rattles this fella with a forearm shiver that nearly took the fuckers head off... As terrible as it may sound I was in fuckin' tears laughing so hard. This dude was all tough and then BOOM, goodnight Irene...Classic.
