Jeff R Posted June 3, 2007 Posted June 3, 2007 Damn that sucks brosephus. We had a 1st set drunkerino last night too...standing right in front us screaming jibberish during a couple songs with a roll of cash in his hand..little dude. I finally asked the doosh what the hell he was saying and check this..he wanted us to play a fukkin' Linkin Park song!HAHAHAAAAAAA!!!! Needless to say he got publicy berated in a humorous sorta way (all in good fun. No damage done).Shame Wes wasn't there. He woulda got Stinkin Park. Aim into the piss and PILEDRIVER!
edgar_allan_poe Posted June 4, 2007 Posted June 4, 2007 The other night we were playing at a place called the Double Deuce, a real gold mine, and this drunk girl got up on a table and started dancing. One of the bouncers, a little blond guy, got a cue from the cooler. He went over all nice like and asked the guy at the table to get the girl down. The guy, drunk too, told him to piss off. The bouncer got another cue from the cooler and asked again, but this time the drunk guy punched the bouncer in the face and pulled a knife. The cooler comes over grabs the knife arm, puts the guy's face into the table, and has the bouncers escort him out. Then he helps the drunk girl off the table. Everyone's like 'did you see that, who is this guy?' I thought he was a bit small to be a cooler. ROTFLMAO!!! Please tell me that I am not the only guy who got this joke. LOL!!!

I was too embarassed to ask what a cooler was, too.
kurtsstuff Posted June 4, 2007 Posted June 4, 2007 Hell.....Half the fun of gigging at the local dives is ya never know what the guys or gals are gonna do once they've had too much to drink. but..seriously....if your not able to handle the enevitable...don't gig...yeah, kurt, you said that already, thanx.shouldn't you be out chasing your tail buying amps and selling them ten minutes later?the adults are talking real world music experiences here.Not sure why the hostility as none was meant from my end....anyways....duly noted...

Matt Mattson Posted June 4, 2007 Posted June 4, 2007 I don't get the jokes either. Probably a good thing.
BLuesBuster Posted June 4, 2007 Posted June 4, 2007 Not sure why the hostility as none was meant from my end....anyways....duly noted...A lot of that crap goin' round, just another day on the HFC.
Brooks Posted June 4, 2007 Author Posted June 4, 2007 i jumped on kurt because he mentioned it 3 times (twice on here, once on the gear page). once is your opinion, even on 2 websites.i have been smacked by the mic half a dozen times, seen drunks fall, had drunks spill on my pedalboard, etc, dozens of times. this was the 1st time someone onstage GOT INJURED and HAD THEIR GUITAR DEFACED. it IS a big deal, and someone suggesting over and over that i shouldn't gig if "i can't take it" pisses me off.
Jeff R Posted June 4, 2007 Posted June 4, 2007 You know I got the Road House joke immediately. My half a twenty bets Peso got it too.
BCR Greg Posted June 4, 2007 Posted June 4, 2007 I have a chipped tooth from a guy that kept yelling 'Slayer!" and hitting my mic stand while he fist pumped. That was back in the Citizen Cain days. The stage was 3 feet tall, and this guy was just the right height to hit the extension of the boom. After it happened three times(the last being hard enough to cause the chip and some serious bleeding), I leaned over and cracked him with the Les Paul. The input jack broke from the impact, and he lost at least one tooth. The crew took him outside and showed him what manners were. The dentist bill was $485.I didn't expect it, and it wasn't fun.
salem Posted June 4, 2007 Posted June 4, 2007 It's sad to say but the artists on stage aren't safe from some of the people in the audience. From Altamont to the Dimebag Darrel incident, it makes you want to perform in back of a plexiglass screen.

From Altamont to the Dimebag Darrel incident, it makes you want to perform in back of a plexiglass screen.No way-the immediacy/contact with the audience is one of the great rewards-just have to watch boom mikes and pedalboards like a hawk sometimes, and you eventually learn to spot the hazardous audience members who are or will be a pain in the ass.
BruceM Posted June 4, 2007 Posted June 4, 2007 A well trained crew is critical. I knew there was something missing from our live shows. Robb, can we review my contract? Am I still the designated heavy, or is that Toni?

It was on TV just the other day. I guess you can say that any day of the week and stand a good chance of being correct. I stopped short of describing how I play guitar on my lap, or ended my song by saying 'The name...is Dalton.'
mudshark Posted June 4, 2007 Posted June 4, 2007 It's happened to pretty much all of us at some time or another. Doesn't mean you have to learn to like it or ignore it. Those who know me are aware that I've got an incredibly high boiling point, but I've clocked somebody with a solidbody before. And enjoyed the HELL out of it. I saw an interview with Carl Perkins where he said you could clock somebody with a Les Paul, wipe off the blood, and keep on playing. Said it wouldn't even leave a single scratch or dent.
