The craziest moment in my perfromance history, would be a gig that a bunch of us locals put on in Kwinana. We hired the hall, pa, took tickets, everything. The cops were patrolling to make sure all was cool. One officer poured out some kids beer, which had another yobbo throw his beer at them. More cops arrived, more beers were thrown and it degenerated into a mess that the riot police had to come and break up.

They stormed the venue and pinned us up against the stage with shields in our faces yelling "move, move, move". The pa guy gave them lip and got thrown out. Some people even had dogs set apon them, which sparked a riot through the town causing more than $25,000 worth of damage.

The cops tried to pin us with the blame afterwards, but it wasn't gonna stick. It made the news and our bass player was interviewed wearing the cow costume he'd been sporting the night before, complete with udders.

Two weeks later the cops payed us to play their blue light disco. They had no idea it was the same band from the riot.

READ this( is this better?)

I was up pritty late that night(even though it might late might be 10:30)

Peace concert, we had signs(went to the street to say "honk for peace" etc)
guy with pro war sign.
then we invited him up to speak(terrible job defending).
and we acted all professional about it.

the funny thing was we were all like hardcore/ death metal bands.

Re: What is the crazyist concert experince you have ever had?


only people from Australia would understand this:
"A Crocodile came up, ripped my guts out! Bit me into parts/pieces, and even my legs went that way, and even my head went that way!"

naah actually my craziest concert experience was that we where at a local 'Battle of the Bands' and there was a guy in the front who i think that was high on drugs, and he just started screaming for absolutely no reason, and then this massive guy came up and gave him a bear hug to calm him down. he passed out in the guys arms, then threw up. after a while we saw him again and he screamed again and nearly tackled me, but turns out he wasnt high that time, just jokin. BTW the reason he screamed the first time was because he thought he saw a bird fly out the drumkit RISLMAO!!

Re: What is the crazyist concert experince you have ever had?


alot can happen, as for me.
I was playing a show, in Illinios. at a club, and it was the middel of the show, when I get pissed off, and start hammering the hell out of the heads. little did i know, that my tech, never changed the heads, the week, before.
So here iam , play my ass off, when the stick goes into the head, and short to follow, was my arm.

try to keep playing, but, with one arm inside the shell, and the other trying to keep my ass from hitting the floor, going head of heels, over the kit.
my techy, saying OOOOOPppsss. ment to tell you, people, were so freaking drunk, they did not even think, it was a miss happ, the screamed and claped, so load. it covered up the stuff that was coming out of my month.
that or manager, started to Laugh so freaking load, he pissed his pants.

Now here i am with my one arm inside the shell, and mad as hell, looking right at the tech guy, saying You are so fired. and then realizing, that I did not go into the head, but had missed my mark on the head to set off, the light for my solo, that my arm had went between, the to shells.

anyway to make a long story short, The tech kept his job, and i did way with having a trigger on my kit, to start my solo.
and that was 10 years ago, when all this took, place.
I set back now, and laugh about stufflike that.

Dam I was so messed up that nite, glad those days are long gone.
that was the only thing I remember that was so messed up.
