SO glad that I quit my old band.

Maybe its a statement but forgot the punctuation, like "IN YOUR FACE, melodies!!!"

ROSE FUNERAL: THE UNO INCIDENT? | MetalSucks So apparently while they were playing a show with Nile, some kids were playing Uno in front of the stage, dudes in my old band overreacted and beat them up for it. Fucking childish. One of the many reasons I'm not in this band, besides the fact that the music was AWFUL, this type of thing happens on a regular basis... At least I got an apology on the page for them bringing my name into it

what do you guys think about this?

they neden holes 4 real.
they best step the fuck off 4 they get smacked in the nuggs.

BLOGRONAUT: INTRONAUT’S SACHA DUNABLE ON HOW BANDS SHOULD HANDLE HECKLERS | MetalSucks

 

[InCasinoOut]

You know what would be funny?

If Devin beat up Rose Funeral fans at shows for NOT playing Uno.

The mental image...

edit: I'm not condoning violence on Devin's part of course, but imagining a bizarre-o world thing going on in my head is hilarious.

Devin: "Were you the kid saying nice things about Rose Funeral on Youtube?"
Kid: "ya"
Devin: "Well let's take this inside!"

 

[Carcinoid]

pretty bad. "be the change in the world you want to see." hope you join/start some stellar band

Correct man is correct. That guy makes so many good points in that blog, it's just surreal. Plus Intronaut is a damn good band!

Another thing: One of the MetalSucks commenters told a brilliant story of Heckler Handling Done Right. It was about Skinless opening for Nile, where a drunk guy was yelling "I'M JUST HERE TO SEE NIIIILLEEEE!", and Jason, the vocalist just said "Cool! So are we, we're just playing this gig so we get to see 'em for free!"
See kids, THAT'S the right attitude!

+1 If you can master the art of the one line put down, preferably with it being non-confrontational and with a touch of self-deprecation, instant win.

Get hit with a cup? "If you're going to throw stuff at least make it tenners, we're broke!"

 

[Loomer]

Well, you're British, you're genetically predisposed to be good at that stuff

In Soviet Russia, Rose Funeral gets beat up for not playing UNO.

Why thank you, sir.

I guess what I was trying to point out is that a lot of the time hecklers etc are just trying to get a rise out of the band (for whatever reason). If as a performer you can find a way to defuse a situation and continue, then do so.

Nice. I think there's a Megadeth live release where Mustaine goes something like "If you're gonna throw the bottle, at least make sure it's full!"

I like the description of ".......In your face melodies." I've yet to hear any melodic content in those songs.......

They also say something in that description about being comparable to At the Gates? No Fucking Way are they anything like At the Gates. I honestly can't believe a touring band actually reacted this way over Uno, I didn't like them to begin with but I respected them for playing the music they like but attacking 17 year olds over that made me lose that bit of respect I had for them.

Musically or as human beings. When I asked Tomas Lindberg to sign an album he handed me a beer from the band's rider and rounded up the rest of the guys. Top bloke.

Now awaiting the inevitable pinup shot with three strategically placed UNO cards.

 

[Loomer]

Did the band ever release any sort of statement regarding this?

Mustaine also went nuts on that kid with the laser pointer. lol.



He ragged on him so bad..
