The Fight: Revisited

// January 24th, 2010 // No Comments » // Band, Concert, Music, Reviews

Sometimes I look back and wonder just how things spiraled so far out of control. I never should have thrown that fire extinguisher. I mean, we needed it to put out the fire that started on the sound board. I just wasn’t thinking… Good thing one of our fans came prepared. They brought along their fearlessness and simply smothered the flame with their body.

Back to the fight…

The thing with Robert is sometimes he just says things that drive you crazy. Normally I don’t let it get to me but my nerves were on edge given the big performance… and the six Red Bulls I drank prior to hitting the stage. I mean really, Red Bull should come with a rage warning. I am pretty sure that one can accelerates your heartbeat by at least 17.2% and makes you 37.6% more susceptible to uncontrollable rage triggered primarily by things Robert says. I have a study in progress that should confirm these numbers.

In the end “the incident” really brought the band together and we’re more determined than ever to make our mark in music.  We’ll make sure to confine the crazy antics (read fights) to dressing rooms, hotel rooms and the occasional 7-11. Unless of course on stage blowouts are what you, the fans, want and then, well, we’ll become a blend of rock music and WWE mayhem. Maybe that innovation will help revive the music business.

Martyrs’ Concert Review

Wow, I can’t believe what happened at our show the other night. Eric is the last person in the band I thought would get in a fight. But let’s face it, no one, in good conscience, should let a racial slur like that get by without saying or doing something about it. I mean, I thought it would’ve ended after the fire extinguisher flew through the window, or when the sound board caught on fire, or… well, you know the rest. We all hope Rob recovers quickly from his broken nose.
