Post by: mysteriousbriefcase on 30 Aug 2006, 23:46: i dunno. say what you will about how shitty it is to assault artists like that, but i really really don't like nickelback.

Post by: TrueNeutral on 31 Aug 2006, 02:48: Yeah, really old.

But man, rocks? Sure, we may hate those guys, but that's no reason to throw ROCKS at them.

Then again, Foo Fighters fans throw Mentos at a band they actually like.

It's not like it's special though. Portugal is violent all the time. Just look at the way they play soccer.

*holds a grudge*

Post by: Spike on 31 Aug 2006, 02:49: See, they messed up. You're not supposed to just pack up your things and leave, you're supposed to keep playing, except more and more furiously as it goes on. Just ask Iron Maiden.

Post by: Hat on 31 Aug 2006, 03:52: I dont know, maybe they were just trying to say "You rock!"

You know, like how 50 Cent is a bottle of urine. It is a lot easier to throw something at a band than it is to yell at a level audible to them. Just saves time.

Post by: Rebourne on 31 Aug 2006, 08:33: That's not very nice at all. There music is generic as hell, but throwing rocks? That could have really hurt him and he isn't a bad guy, he is actually pretty nice.

Post by: ALoveSupreme on 31 Aug 2006, 08:39: I thought this was about Portugal the Man beating up somebody

Post by: BeoPuppy on 31 Aug 2006, 09:06: Well, Nickelback are shyte but they're currently on the same label as Cradle Of Filth so I guess it's safe to say that Nickelback is paying some of the costs of having good music recorded. So, I need them to live a bit longer, I guess.

Post by: Thrillho on 31 Aug 2006, 11:08: I hated this video when I first saw it, and I still do. Some dickhead with a bag of rocks just ruined a show for however many thousands of people, and I doubt 'Nickelback tours Portugal' is a massively regular occurrence.

Post by: zmeiat_joro on 31 Aug 2006, 13:43: Dunno, DynamiteKid, Nickelback fans, seriously, who cares about them? Although throwing rocks at a band/anyone is retarded.

Post by: Night Rocker on 31 Aug 2006, 15:23: So what if he drove drunk once? No one is perfect. Their music is ok. But thats not a good reason to throw stones at them.

That's not even funny. That doesn't even feel like it should be funny.

Er, if Nickleback is "ok" I'm dying to know who you think sucks.

Post by: Hat on 31 Aug 2006, 23:01: I think the guy who did this was pretty stupid. Not nessecarily because he threw rocks at a band, which although I think is pretty dispicable, we are talking about Nickleback here. My point is, this person actually hates a band enough to go to see them play, to throw rocks at them.

It is pretty retarded to dedicate that much energy to something you hate.

Also I had to edit this post to cull my excessive use of the word "Dude" because I have been taking a little trip down memory lane today.

Post by: KharBevNor on 31 Aug 2006, 23:46: Maybe this guy went to see the support act.

Don't tell me you have never gone to see bands for the support acts before.
Title: portugal threw rocks at nickeback
Post by: Trollstormur on 31 Aug 2006, 23:56: I've gone to see three headline acts, all the rest of my shows were for supporting acts. the three were GWAR, Rammstein and KMFDM, most of my concerts were for supporting acts.

Metallica headlined the BDO a little while ago, and I went for a bunch of other bands. I dislike Metallica quite a bit, especially the post-cliff stuff, and the idea of going to see them to throw shit at them didn't even cross my mind. And if I saw Kirk Hammet in a parking lot, I would still deck the guy on instinct.
