BEST TOUR STORY-
we've had some sweet times but probably the best is when we were on tour with THE BLEEDERS in NZ.
We were playing this bar show in Hamilton. There was a balls up with the postering & venue so only like 30 people showed up. We were like 3/4s the way through our set & it was a SUPER DRY vibe, no one was really doing anything except these two dudes who'd been partying pretty hard & they were kinda making a bit of a nuisance of themselves. Doing a bit of a pogo mosh and banging into everybody. Anyway they kept banging into the same crew which was the bleeders, & ang would just keep pushing them back harder making the dudes fall over half the time, which was making the pogo moshers pretty upset. So i walked out into the crowd & just grabbed the main guy and held him while i was singing, to try and diffuse the moment. I held for a bit, let him go and turned around and faced the band for a bit. When i turned back around there was this cartoon looking fight rolling around through the crowd, seriously looked like a ball with arms and legs sticking out occasionally, (the ball was the bleeders & some mates vs pogo mosh & some others), just as i see that, i see josh run off the stage with his bass (which is wireless) still on and jump in the fight, so i step off the stage about to run in, and the guy who was dancing with pogo mosh started to run into the fight as well, so i grabbed him to make him stop so he wouldn't run in and get smashed by 10 dudes, he swung at me so i dropped him, and started fighting with him on the ground, while josh was running around with the fight ball. The whole time the rest of the band didn't know what was going on & kept playing.. So when pogo mosh got thrown out, josh just got back on stage and carried on, eventually i was pulled off the other guy, & got back up on stage and finished the song. shit was so so weird, the dudes payed like 20 bucks to come see our bands, picked a fight with us, got beat up & thrown out. amazing.
