i could tell y'all some REALLY wack stories from the psychedelic band in the early 80s with the bass player who was an acid dealer, but i dunno if you're ready for that shit.

I'm listening

My God, it's a recipe for disaster! You've got a vulnerable dubkitty and an unstable bassist in an eighties band on acid! The only thing missing is someone shouting "Heathcliff!" across the moors!

because threats of violence are fine everywhere else?

playing a show with my old sludge band a few years back we hit into a REALLY slow REALLY heavy song, nearly drone speeds and this girl walks up infront of the stage, it was not a very full show, and slowly with a dead look on her face starts taking her clothes off. Boots, shirt, stockings, bra and right there, on the fucking filthy floor, starts masturbating. like really going at it. our drummer stops probably 5 times in a 9 minute song but we finished and so did she. she then picked up her clothes and walked out the room. came back about an hour later. watched the rest of the show....
i always thought she was on acid or something...

it was weird

fuck. that is awesome.

electric wizard would be proud.

It was the last leg of the White Zombies La Sestrosixto tour and I was 13. My eyes were glued too the stage as one of my favorite bands came up and with a club that had a thick cloud of smoke that you could almost see, hell erupted with me in the middle. Three songs in Sean Uselt (the hot female bass player) collapsed on stage. From what I understood she had surgery 5 days before the show and I remember her falling on stage like a sack of potatoes. The stage hands rush her out and the crowd gets really upset, so much so that a woman with what seemed to be a large can on dry mace pelts a guy right in the face. People start diving out of the windows and Rob Zombie takes a big wiff of the mace asking the crowed if it is. He feels bad plays thunder kiss 65 with no bass and then goes off stage and I make my way with my cousin protecting me through what seemed to be more than a dozen cop cars and ambulances.

I saw showbread once (yeah I was all about that kinda music) and the black guy was rocking out and totally hit his forehead on the monitor that was hanging from the ceiling. I'm not sure how many people noticed, but it was really funny and he was like rubbing his forehead for the rest of the show.

If we're talkin about shit that we did at shows, I saw Kyuss and I was in the middle of the crowd smoking a fat joint (it was already like joint #6 for me at this point in the show). So Kyuss is setting up or whatever and when they finally start the crowd goes crazy and I get shoved into this fat lady with a really nappy ass hairdo and as I get pulled away I look into her nappy weave and I see the cherry from my joint just smoldering in her hair. It was so gross. I tried to smack it out of her hair but I got pulled away and never saw her again. I felt pretty bad but she was really ugly and there was nothing I could do about it

Some dude at a Melt-Banana show did a stage dive, was caught and thrown back into the air, and ended up accidentally roundhouse kicking the guy right next to me in the side of the head. Guy then limped his way out of the club

[dubkitty]

the kicker, or the kickee?

[tuffteef]

i saw some dude with no belly button at a show

blew my mind

YOU SAW JESUS.

urm...... i'm boring. haven't done that much/seen that much weird at shows i've played at. got to play basketball with Fishbone and run in fear after bleating out "i..... i DON'T KNOW HOW TO TALK TO YOU" to Les Claypool backstage at a Lalapalooza.

..... saw Fishbone's singer's dick from about 12 feet away when he got nekid at that show and saw about 10 big ass doods about to whip 3 ignorant honky bouncers that wouldn't let the keyboardist for Fishbone backstage 'cause they didna believe he was in a band and kept calling him "boy". was HECTIC.

yeah, you just tripped balls when you were playing a show.
nothing interesting there

[jfrey]

I can't remember what show it was that I was seeing - it was at some little bar venue - but at one point I went to the bathroom, and there was a guy with his pants and underwear down around his ankles, his shirt pulled up to his neck, and he was arched into the urinal, with his head lolling back like he was barely conscious. I decided to come back at some other time...

Like this... but with more drunkenness, and the guy practically in the urinal.

lulz. well, it was HARD to do, but not that weird. i was doing a fair amount of acid and shrooms at the time.

besides some fights and some tits and stuff nothing really off at shows that i can remember. i was a little perturbed when i went into my guitarist's gig bag for a string winder and found his handgun. that he apparetly carried to every show 'cause he dealt (weed only i think?) and came up WAY rougher than i did. dunno if it'd bother me now (illegal carry law violations CAN fuck you up), but i was 15 at the time.

I would be less concerned that he carried a handgun and MORE concerned that he wasn't actually carrying it, and that you or anyone so easily could have removed it from his bag.
