I haven't listend to methodrone in a few years so i put it on this morning. it's a masterpiece. the distorted megaphone at the end of the last track that sounds like guitar feedback is one of my favorite things ever. and i had completely forgotten about she made me and everyone says which are both incredible

Unquestionably the greatest thing they’ve ever done. The bit at the end where he sits on the guitar amp as the audience pelt the falling stage curtain with beer had me howling.

was this all over a random member of the current live band saying something re red meat/politics ?

no idea who is who, so, is it that main man Anton who sits down on the speaker at the end ?
so far, he has not said anything as to this on his twitter groove as far as i can tell.

no, newcombe had spent the whole tour antagonising the audiences and arguing with some of the band and fights had nearly broken out at some of the previous shows apparently. newcombe was apparently in a terrible mood after the promoter had held him at knifepoint (?!) earlier and was barely able to sing that night, and kept antagonising the audience (who heckled him back) and left long gaps between songs. the fight was apparently only a handful of songs in

the bandmember speaking at the start i think could be making a veiled criticism of newcombe/the audience antagonising each other but he isn't the one involved in the fight.

Anton has been off the wagon for a couple years now and its effects on the current tour has mostly been like this.

10-15 years ago a friend of my dad’s showed up to one of their concerts hella early and Anton was milling around outside drinking from a large jug of vodka

Also, longtime BJM manager Ted Gardner passed away at the end of 2021 and without him around keeping the BJM ship sailing is damn impossible

Just recalling that I think it was watching the documentary Dig! that somehow set in motion the process that led me to land at ILX.

Was just thinking, does this mean there's going to be another documentary?

Hey if they can make a Spinal Tap sequel. (Which, sadly, they are.)

Calling this a "fight" is an insult to all the middle-school shoving matches that occur during recess in this great country on a daily basis

Anton was posting some Zionist shit recently

Joel Gion is promoting his book at the moment and I keep thinking that this photo is The Actor Kevin Eldon in some new sketch show...
