I recently saw Brian Molko not sing a single note in tune
Iâd love to have witnessed the My Sharona incident first-hand
They sound like a great bunch of lads.
The ex-guitarist from Future of the Left taped a pepperami to the end of his guitar and was offering audience members a bite.
A local band many many years ago: the singer snorted a condom, reached into his throat to grab the end and started âflossingâ his nasal passage.
Thread closed.
Miss this band so hard!
so good. the only project from any of the members that iâm aware of still being active is JEFF the brotherhood, no idea where the singer ended up
had a solo career and then a family i think
whats the incident?
I saw a band called The Go Nuts (I was in Rotterdam at the time, though the band were American).
All their songs were about food and eating. They threw pizzas, bread rolls and other foodstuff at the audience. Friends of the band dressed as gorillas came on stage and joined in.
This escalated to a cannon that shot out icing sugar and stuff. Until the entire venue and everyone in it was coated.
It was kind of fun though.
Once saw the replacement drummer (usual drummer was on paternity leave) strap a can of Red Stripe to a womanâs head and got her to pour it into his mouth.
Copied from a post by LLB in an old thread (hope he doesnât mind):
Worst gig I ever saw - Iâm sure guntrip and I have regaled everyone with this one before
But Statistics at the Underworld.
It was my then girlfriendâs birthday and she loved them. So we got tickets to go and see them. There seemed to be a bit of hype because they were the band of Desparcidos. Thought it was close to selling out.
It was not. There was at most 20 people there. And what a spectacle.
First, the lead singer came out dressed in a track suit, running on the spot and doing press ups to the Team America theme tune.
He then proceeded to chat the most amount of shit ever. Including
Using his loop pedal to play Eye of the Tiger
Saying âSorry everyone, we are in fact, THE KILLERS!â then started playing Mr Brightside, but he faltered on one bit and he was like âWait, wait, I can do thisâ slowly picking through it
In the middle of one of their songs he screamed â9/11 REMIX!!!â and started shredding
When someone shouted PLAY A FUCKING SONG he replied whatâs that, you want to see me balance my guitar on the end of my chin. ok! Got on his knees and did so
OK! Weâre gonna do a little call and respond. I see Panic at the Disco are doing it and theyâre popular so maybe itâll make us popular. right so I say something like shotgun, and you all say something like wedding back alright? ok here we go! WHEN I SAY HOLLER - YOU SAY CAUST! HOLLER! stunned silence
He finished with WOO LONDON! YEAH LONDON! IâM SUPPOSED TO CARE COS ITâS LONDON RIGHT? AND YOUâRE ALL A BIG DEAL YEAH? BUT IâM SORRY, I COULDNâT GIVE A FUCk. YOUâRE NOTHING TO ME. GOODNIGHT.
They were on stage for 50 minutes. They played 6 songs amounting to about 20 minutes of music.
Sounds like this guy
sounds great that tbh
If I remember right, some drunk guy at a Deerhunter show (or Atlas Sound?) heckled a request for âMy Sharonaâ, which led to the band performing a cover that lasted the entire gig. I think something else happened too
