the lead singer of "against me!", an up and coming punk rock band from my neck of the woods here in gainesville, FL, was arrested monday night
for smashing some poor guy in tallahassee's head into a wooden counter. why? because the guy asked him why he crumbled up and threw away an article about Against Me! with some dirty words written on it. from the report in the tallahassee paper it's impossible to tell how this exchange went down, except that some guy that worked at the All Saint's Cafe said that the guy wasn't looking for a fight. ...the guy that got his head smashed into the counter, that is...
idolator.com has a good take on it..."Now that's not how a good anarchistic peace punk should act. It is, on the other hand, exactly how a major label rock star should act."
these guys have gainesville's collective nose up their ass, and apparently many on the national scene feel the same way.
some thoughts from their "hometown fans" in gainesville...
