Blue J Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 The bassist later tweeted his thanks to fans after the "unfortunate altercation". Public intoxication, assault, and vandalism...yes, what an "unfortunate altercation". :eyeroll: Pauvre, pauvre Geezer. :P 1
EagleMoon Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 Now that's rock 'n roll. :codger: :D You don't hear much about this kind of thing anymore. It was always fun waiting to hear what Keith Moon was going to do. Driving into swimming pools and throwing TVs out of hotel windows. 3
bathory Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 yeah, I'm all in favor of rockers doing crazy shit as long as no fans are hurt and no tour dates are postponed in the process. 5

Xanadoood Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Iommi was a real bad ass when he was younger as well. They all came from rough neighborhoods in Birmingham. 4
driven_to_xanadu Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 First the nonsense with Phil Rudd and now this. The guy probably deserved a beating though, probably an overzealous Sabbath fan for all we know ;)
