| “I think the weirdest was when we were somewhere in Germany . That’s when we were at our worse. It’s like 4 in the morning, we were touring, and everyone’s drunk. Everyone was singing to each other and you had to hit your beer glass down on the bar during the song at some point. I’m not sure which because I was just watching. One of the kids went BAM! With his pint glass and he cut open his hand. Blood just went everywhere. He was sitting in this chair that bows at the seat so it just kind of pooled there. He was taken into the other room to lie down, it was a terrible slash, they bandaged him up terribly I mean it’s 4 in the morning everyone’s wasted. They got an ambulance together too and while the ambulance is on its way. I’m sitting there and I’m one of those people who will be looking around and say “well I should start cleaning up, because no one is going to clean up.” So I’m cleaning up and I take a pint glass, I put all the blood in it before I clean it up with a towel. Then I look at it and I’m like “Oh this is a perfect pint.” It filled up a full pint! I thought that was comical. I’m all wasted so I go in the other room and I say “Hey you guys I know it’s blood but you lost a perfect pint of blood.” The guy [who lost the blood] looks at me in a way that I have never seen before, like to say “Dude don’t be handling my blood. He was like “Dude that’s my blood; you do not get to play with it.” Then Steve our bass player, he’s drunk and high snatches the glass from me. He looks at the glass and goes “ahhh” and he takes three big gulps. Three Adams apples full! He had a blood-milk mustache. After which all he can say is “Ahhh.” Everyone was horrified and I’m talking in the middle of Germany the most hardened punks. Everyone was horrified. He just went too far. I took [the pint glass] out of his hand after that. He was throwing up all night, the funniest thing is that he’s a vegetarian too.” |
