songrytr Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 I have a scar on my right eyebrow from a P-Bass tuning key. 1982. Think it was the last chord of some Police song. I was singing lead and jumping around like a dork...bass player swung around and knocked me out cold. The crowd went wild. this house is empty now...

Jimbroni Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 Mark Sandman, bass player and frontman for Morphine, died on stage from a heart attack. When I was in High School, My punk band was playing graduation party and the guy's uncle fell off a lawn chair and died. Apparently a heart attack. That was the first time I saw someone die, it still give me the creeps. Together all sing their different songs in union - the Uni-verse.

It's a lot like a dental procedure without enough novocaine, and I KNOW that feeling, so I carry a couple of spare windscreens in my gig bags. Cheap insurance.

dhurstlmt Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 I have been to a couple Wooten concerts. I was clinically dead during several portions of the concert from the lowdown wonder and groove. However, Vic's tag team Regi (older brother) would bring me back with screeching guitar and way too many notes. If you have ever seen Regi Wooten play, you know what I mean. They work well together. Let your speech be better than silence, or be silent. For those who believe, no explanation is necessary. For those who do not, none will suffice. "Rindase!" "Rendirme?

ChrisOfDoom Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 My drummer tried to kill me today when I wandered into the room and asked him where my G string was while he was on the phone with his latest girlfriend. I think I blew it for him, I wound up with a drumstick shaped bruise on my back. By the way, bump. -Chris Hobo Libido on MySpace Bipolar Express on MySpace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.A. Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 people have wanted to kill themselves after listening to me play does that count? Insert inaccurate quote here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fished Fusion Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 In a completely other almost unrelated type of band death...you have a ton of black metal bands encouraging there fans to kill each other. They also encourage suicide and self saddism. There's even the story of that one guy (don't know a name) In a black metal band who killed his singer and then turn his brain into soup and ate it. When the police asked him why, his response was "I wanted to keep the evil in the band, and he was becoming more evil than I was". -Birth Control- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremy c Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 I'd like to see some evidence that would prove that story to be true. Until then, I don't believe it. Free download of my cd!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fished Fusion Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 It was in some black metal magazine, I don't choose to care much enough to believe either way...just think it's a good story. -Birth Control- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swayingtree Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 This thread has made me laugh so hard. I wonder why that guy was trying to play his electric guitar in the bathtub?
