Sign in to disble this ad
I have a friend who lives in Minnesota and was going to be taking pics at a show Danzig was headlining last night. Apparently his crew got everything set up and then Mr. Danzig said the stage wasn't big enough and pulled out. The rest of the bands played for free.
I guess it wasn't big enough to hold the guy's ego or something. Pretty lame.

| | | | Danzig has done this in the past, canceling shows at the last minute with no explanation. This happened in Santa Cruz, CA around 2006. Glen Danzig certainly has his reputation. |

He played with Doyles new band Gorgeous Frankstein, they were alright. They wouldn't allow any flash photography of any sort because Glenn hates it.He really screwed over his fans to cancel a gig cause the stage wasn't big enough. You can tell it's all gone to his head.

Of maybe he's a huge flake.  |

Danzig buys kitty litter while wearing Danzig shirt. |

OTOH, he should have gotten 3 more boxes so he could pump iron while he shopped. |

This guy doesn't realise how hard it is for some fans to make arrangements to see him perform, how some might have taken a day off work and lose pay to see him? What happened to the SHOW MUST GO ON? Is there no loyalty to the fans who give their loyalty back?
Yep, I'm comparing .......but My favorite guys in Tarot just had some small stages in Europe, so small Zac couldn't wander as much as normal...the ceiling looked so low they could touch it. Tommi has a horrid failed root canal and in pain for 3 weeks while on tour, feeding on painkillers as much as he can but the show must go on. Marco fell through a hole(!) in a stage in Germany, gained a huge nasty painful bruise on his upper leg, but show must go on. That's a band that deserves loyal fans, not this Danzig guy. What an idiot. Boo hoo stage too small...waaahhhh.....
