The Analog Grownup Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Damn I would be pissed at that guy throwing the bottle if I had my show ruined like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchetaxe&saw Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 I'd have walked too, onto the floor and beat the living shit out of the tosser that threw the bottle. This happens so often, what's wrong with these people, apart from the obvious? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchetaxe&saw Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 I emailed an apology to Bob Mould once over something similar another asshole did at one of his gigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bathory Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 sweet, I think they kick ass. I saw them in Atlanta earlier this month. only annoyances were crowdsurfing dumbasses, but other than that, killer show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyBlaze Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 wow people here know the melvins? besides me and EW77?Only album of theirs I have is Stoner Witch. A lot of people had that album that year. It's a fun one. I can't blame them for walking off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatchetaxe&saw Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 still think it's totally lame that they quit playing though I'm with the band on this one. f**k it, it could have been a knife. Or a broken bottle. Or a glass of piss. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del_Duio Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 (edited) I'm with the band on this one too. As a lot of you guys already know, when you're up on stage with the lights on you you can't see jack shit past maybe the first few rows of people. That guy had no idea that bottle was coming and it could have been much, much worse. There's a story floating around out there about Meredith Brooks getting all messed up due to a thrown bottle during a show (She had a big hit "I'm a Bitch", which, while it's a terrible song, is what most people remember her for I guess). EDIT: Here, I was close look- On March 30 in Argentina, whilst opening for the Rolling Stones, the crowd demanded to see the Stones during her set and threw bottles and other objects at the stage. Brooks abandoned her set after 2 songs as the crowd yelled "come on Stones". The next day Brooks showed reporters bruises to her eye and ankle and stated: "They have taken away my greatest moment. I was playing with the Stones, something I never imagined I would do... and now I think I'll cancel the rest of my shows in Latin America. I have no intention of continuing to expose myself to this kind of barbaric behavior... not me, not my band, not my crew."

Or a broken bottle. Or a glass of piss. I think a break or something was in order but stopping the show entirely? I think they should've resumed playing once the situation was diffused Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Analog Grownup Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 It would have been cool if they had said "We'll be back when you have kicked the crap out of that f*cker". I see too many people acting like knuckleheads at concerts - you don't like the show, then leave instead of ruining it for everyone else. But alas, some people are too stupid to understand even the simplest things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enemy Within 77 Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 From what I've read this happened during the last 2 or 3 songs- so people saw most of the show I guess. I just saw them last month and I have so much respect for this band- words cannot say how much I fukkin love and worship these guys. No true fan would throw shit at THIS band! My show's crowd was a bunch of fukkin poseurs but at least they showed the band some respect! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akron162 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 f***ing douche, you dont throw shit to the guy that is trying to put a show for you. I wouldnt have walked out, but i would have made sure the guy is thrown out of the club and is banned from all my concerts from then on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xanadoood Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I'm on the fence about this incident.. It's definitley a dick move to throw anything at a performer, but The Melvins have been around the block a few times.. You'd think maybe they've seen this type of shit before.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think maybe they've seen this type of shit before..Yea, this was their 30th anniversary tour and I feel like they've been around so long that they don't need to put up with shit like this. I'm sure in their early days this stuff happened all the time, but at this stage in your career you don't need to deal with stuff like this.
