bar fights...

James Hayes said:
i have a couple of good ones. The instant we stopped playing for the night at a rather hot spot for brawls an all out brawl started. it was huge. It went into the parking lot. Anyway, right in the centre of it all was a guy with a colostamy bag... need i say more? The bag and its contents were everywhere to be seen after that.


Ack.... :scowl:

All the same...i almost killed my 13 yr old stepson the other day i was on the floor playing with the baby and he gets smart and jumps on me (big kid) He reaches around me to grab my throat ...big mistake i did a catch on his elbow and a huge roll toss to the hardwood floors BAMM ...moms starts screaming ..."whats going on in there"....baby starts crying from the sound of him splatting on the floor...good move but i rolled on his face by accident when i took him over and bloodied his mouth ...felt bad ...but he started it:D I have no control....funny how the trianing stays and the moves just happen...gotta get control...ok back to bass.

wow...
... two guys fighting over a woman in a bar is not unusual , but this
one escaladed into a parking lot brawl in which one of the guys
pulled a pistol and ended the other guy's life .... very bloody , very nasty .

cops , EMS , sherrifs deputies , and security guards were all involved .

and yes , we stopped playing ...

So...did you finish the show?

no , actually the fight started near the end of the fourth set ,
so by the time police had everything calmed down ,
it was way past 2AM. ...
shut-down time here in San Antonio .

... since the subject of self defense has been brought up ,
one of the quickest bar fights that i remember was when
this stoned redneck put some rude advances on our drummers
wife ...
little did this guy know our drummer was the self defense instructor
at Lackland Air Force Base , and of course had taught his wife
a few things about fighting .

drummers wife kicked that guy's a$$ so bad ...
it was embarassing to watch a man get whipped like that ...

it was almost sad how fast this guy went down , and i mean he
was out cold ... had to be carried outside by his little friends .

last August a guy came up and spat at our guitarist while we were playing...

we believe he was very drunk and was trying to show his appreciation in what he thought was an authentic punk rock manner, but our guitarist didn't quite appreciate this and the guy got an Ibanez Jem broken over his head as a reward for his efforts

most of the time our audience get a bit boisterous.. jumping around, bashing into each other but there's never any real trouble... the occasional misunderstanding on the 'dancefloor', but nothing that you could call a fight...
