haha jess how are punk rockers supposed to "deal" with getting concussions from bottles?

Why would anyone buy tickets to a gig and then do that anyway? Turbonegro were the ONLY act that night.

well the "smart" thing to do would be to walk off the stage.

Lady if you have to ask...

Scandanavian comic rock outfit...please. Also, it was hardly their "first ever headline show in the US". Oh, those dum dums at NME.

I think I'll probably really hate their audience, not counting all the ILX enthusiasts, of course. People who throw bottles at bands they like, I just don't get it. Were they playing behind a video screen or something?

I don't know, but I saw them last night at BB and I thought it was pretty amazing that whole crowd knew the chorus to "Don't Say Motherfucker, Motherfucker". The lead singer had an Alice Cooper thing going on, cane, makeup, tophat. They should go on tour with Satanicide. "Do you like dolphins? They're beautiful creatures! Do you like words? I hate words! I teach my dolphins to say words. But they're not very smart so they can only say four-letter words, like 'tits'"

Isn't 'Morans' the name of a baseball or american football player?

That means this guy isn't dumb but the person who posted this is? Or maybe it's just me?

Although the exclamation mark should be at the end of the sentence and the all caps for the name isn't great form.

mei (mei), Tuesday, 1 April 2003 15:11 (twenty-one years ago) link

yeah, he's telling the american sports team The Morans to get a brain. that's it.

it was worms, not words. he feeds his dolphin worms. and it speaks dolphinese.

How can you "hate" an entire fan-base (aside from those of racist white-power bullshit bands)? It was only a few disrespectful ass holes who ruined the night for a throng of adoring fans. Some people are just shmucks, you know? I was at the show last night - it was so damn good, and the love ran deep. Oh yeah, I said "deep."

Ah, I'm just jealous, Jeanne. Both LA shows are sold out! Wish they'd bump it up to a bigger venue here, but time is running out.

Arthur (Arthur), Tuesday, 1 April 2003 15:31 (twenty-one years ago) link

That's exactly what they did -- move the show to a bigger venue -- in NYC. Which is what the tour organizers SHOULD have done in the first place. Might have prevented the bottle incident altogether.

Where'd that picture come from? Andrew Innes sent me the same thing last week. I laughed my frickin' ass off for an hour.

Sonny Tremaine (Sonny), Tuesday, 1 April 2003 15:40 (twenty-one years ago) link

um, jess, they DID leave the stage. 3 songs in. are you paying any attention at all in this thread?

Ally (mlescaut), Tuesday, 1 April 2003 16:16 (twenty-one years ago) link

I got the cd last week - Ally are Turbonegro are a joke band? Or are they 4REAL?

Sonny Tremaine (Sonny), Tuesday, 1 April 2003 16:17 (twenty-one years ago) link

and take out the trash!

jess's mom (Fritz), Tuesday, 1 April 2003 16:17 (twenty-one years ago) link

How do you pronounce their name? Is it TURBO-NEGRO?

Sonny Tremaine (Sonny), Tuesday, 1 April 2003 16:21 (twenty-one years ago) link

My friend's band opened up for them and shyly introduced them as "turbo-naygro" as if it were Spanish. It is in fact "nee-gro".

Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Tuesday, 1 April 2003 16:34 (twenty-one years ago) link

Hahahaha Tracer your friend is a wanker.
