Morning all, thought this would be a bright spot in your morning considering all the chat about 8/22 and that hygenically challanged maniac in Iran.

BTW, when you are a supposed major act on a major tour, the failure to sell out consistently in these arenas is a disastrous for the band. This is because so much money is spent up front and there is so much overhead cost that the first 60%-70% of the gross goes right to expenses before the band even sees a penny.

Like the movie "Beetlejuice": "Say it once! Say it twice! Third time's a charm!"....

They laid another egg? And they laid an egg in the People's Democratic Republic of Minneapolis? That's truly impressive.

The worst part for them is the libs who bought their new record probably won't be willing to do so next time. They're in a hole they'll never be able to get out of.
To: Caipirabob
May they fade into silent history.

Looking forward to their "Where are they know" episode in ten years.

See the ad for the show and say, "Who cares?"

I'll be interested just for the Schadenfreude factor.
To: Caipirabob
If it wasn't for these "look-how-bad-they're-doing" articles, they wouldn't have any publicity at all...

"...that hygenically challanged maniac in Iran."
Careful...you're talking about Mike Wallace's new heart throb.

How absolutely STUPID do you have to be to alienate HALF
your audience with some hatefilled remark, and then continually
give them the middle finger salute to not only the ones you alienate
but potential future fans?

They didn't just bite the hand that fed them. They ripped the whole damn arm off.
