A Few Notes About The Fiasco at Sugar On May 8th
| Message Board > Controversy and Quarantine > A Few Notes About The Fiasco at Sugar On May 8th |
| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | First and foremost, to quote Billy Joel of all people: "WE DIDN'T START THE FIRE!!!!" We(The Hoosegow) were ejected from the venue during Death By Stereo's set because Strung Out's tour manager insisted to Sugar staff and the promoter that we set a couch on fire in one of the band rooms. In fact, Glen Bitters happened to save the bar from a major Great White senario. As it happened, a guest in the band room (yes, our guest) lost her wallet. She was looking on the floor under the couch with her lighter. It wasn't there so she went back into the bar to look. Glen was sitting in the room about ten minutes later changing his clothes and having a beer. He was the only one there when a bank of flames came out from underneath the couch. He doused the flame with water from the coolers and it almost got away from him. It was at this point that Strung Out's tour manager came out of the other room and started freaking out saying that we were trying to burn the place down. He had been a dick to us since the moment he got there. First kicking us out of the storage closet the promoter gave us for a dressing room because he wanted to use it as his office. He told us to share with DBS. Now he and all of Strung Out were advancing on Glen, but Big Rick had his back and forced them back into their dressing room. The security took it from there. During this time, I was selling merch in the bar. I went up to the band rooms to get a drink, and suddenly the promoter is screaming at me to get my band and get the fuck out. I asked what had happened but he wouldn't tell me, the security wouldn't tell me, they just followed me around the bar while I packed up our merch, found my wife and tried to load gear. What it boils down to is this: The tour manager didn't like Glen from the start because he wouldn't take any of his shit. He told us that they were a touring band and we weren't shit, even though he knows nothing about us. There was an accident and a fire started by someone and it was quickly taken care of thanks to our bass player. Instead of thanks, he and the rest of us get the boot from a rad show (except out drummer Pauly. The promoter told him he could stay because "he is nice" WTF?!) Lastly I'd like to say that the guys in Death By Stereo are a really cool bunch of guys, especially drummer Chris and the two guitarists. Even after the fiasco, I was talking to them and they seemed to understand the situation. Also the Sugar Security were pretty damn cool about the whole situation. I didn't agree with what was going down, but they weren't dicks about it, and some even may have sympathized with us. It's rare that the bouncers are decent to punk rockers, but these guys were all good. I doubt we'll get asked to play Sugar again, but I'd like them to know that if it wasn't for Glen, they'd own a burned out crater right now. To Strung Out and their tour manager: It's not hard to be civil to people. Try it sometime. - Sat, 9 May 2009 11:15am | ||
| Yesser User Info... | If I were you I wouldn't talk without a lawyer. There is such thing as Negligence when it comes to criminal charges. Criminal Negligence? Who is their right mind uses a Lighter to look for something under a couch? A Negligent person. Not something you want to be talking about. You can be held responsible for your guests actions. Mmk? It's fine that Glen prevented something awful happening, but it doesn't mitigate the fire. How about next time you leave your unsupervised guests outside with the rest of the public. "Instead of thanks, he and the rest of us get the boot from a rad show" Do you Thank someone who only steals HALF your money? Your guests' negligence caused a fire. I would kick you out as well until I saw that you have matured enough to choose the appropriate guests. Using a lighter as a flashlight is DUMB. Coming on Live Victoria and ranting with 3rd person knowledge is a definate sign of your lack of professionalism. - Sat, 9 May 2009 11:38am Edited: Sat, 9 May 2009 11:42am | ||
| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | I'm not trying to excuse the person who lit the couch. Far from it. I am saying that it was because of the tour manager who had a bug up his ass from minute one that the situation escalated. It's a frustrating situation and I thought I would share my side of it. I don't see how it has to do with professionalism. I'm not a professional, nor do I claim to be. It was a stupid misshap that got escalated for no reason. - Sat, 9 May 2009 11:50am | ||
| CL User Info... | Shut your yap Yesser, you goddamned fucktard. Shitty situation, Ty. Sounds like you dealt with it well. - Sat, 9 May 2009 12:56pm | ||
| LilyVon User Info... | I don't see how you can be held responsible for someone elses actions. It was a major accident, but if they want to hold someone responsible, it's the chick with the lighter's fault. She's the one who set the couch (although by accident) on fire. - Sat, 9 May 2009 1:00pm | ||
| KRIEG User Info... | Thanks to Glen for saving one of the better venues in town! Right place / right time / right action - Sat, 9 May 2009 1:21pm | ||
| Jl User Info... | "If I were you I wouldn't talk without a lawyer" why? Only you, yessser, are paranoid enough to think pessimistically that someone would ACTUALLY come to this message board and file a lawsuit over a stupid thread like this(not saying the situation is stupid; but you get what i mean). And further, yesser, you are a dick... plain and simple, so yeah, if I were you; Id probably be under the impression the world is out to get me. Its too bad; cuz some people are actually good people, but you dont give anyone a chance because your too absorbed in yourself. You probably felt good about posting that little retort... chummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.... p. - Sat, 9 May 2009 2:05pm | ||
| trevor corey User Info... | I've grown to actually quite like the "security" staff at Sugar. They seem to have an excellent handle on appropriate responses, and not over-reacting, all the while doing a top notch job of protecting. Yesser's tactics of stfu are appropriate, if you are denying everything and paying a lawyer to get you out of something. ...........thank GOD no one got hurt. - Sat, 9 May 2009 2:28pm Edited: Sat, 9 May 2009 2:30pm | ||
| trevor corey User Info... | Bitters deserves some kind of award. Seriously. It doesn't matter whose fault the fire was, he did the right thing, and probably didn't even think twice about it. Nightclub fires are a paranoia of mine. I hate it when bands use pyro-techniques. - Sat, 9 May 2009 4:37pm | ||
| You Enjoy Myself User Info... | Wow, glad to hear that Sugar was saved by Glen's actions, but your guest that has less intelligence than a cro-magnon should probably receive a lifetime ban and read up on combustion. - Sat, 9 May 2009 5:50pm | ||
| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | I should have also added that Glen immediately realized how this was going down and volunteered to leave. They still decided to go around and round up the rest of the band that had nothing to do with it and escort us out. Even the girl with the lighter tried to explain the situation to the promoter and security to no avail. I'll also reiterate that the security staff at Sugar were just doing their job and weren't being dinks to any of us. Thank you for the respect boys, I appreciate it. The promoter was also really easy to deal with up until the incident. He panicked though, and I probably would have too with that asshole tour manager screaming for our heads. I feel bad that he probably hates us now, but there's not much I can do about that. Was Strung Out good? I'd love to get a review since we were outta there. - Sat, 9 May 2009 5:57pm | ||
| Bouncing Fork User Info... | Im sure a fire would have been much more entertaining than those two shitty pop punk bands who sucked in 1995 also, do we know for a fact that Bitters wasnt trying to make "Backstage BBQ Wings"? - Sat, 9 May 2009 6:33pm | ||
| Yesser User Info... | "Even the girl with the lighter tried to explain the situation to the promoter and security to no avail" Of course to no avail. What kind of idiot who was not born before the invention of a lightbulb would use a LIGHTER as a flashlight. That was my only point. - Sat, 9 May 2009 6:54pm | ||

| FISH User Info... | I'm pretty sure there was a big rant about criminal negligence in your first post Yesser, that seems to be the one you wanted to make. And a lawyer? Are you fucking serious? Were you there to witness all the events and actions of everyone involved? I dont think so. Mmk? - Sat, 9 May 2009 10:36pm | ||
| trevor corey User Info... | I'd like to know, who HASN'T used a lighter as a flashlight at one time or another? - Sat, 9 May 2009 11:54pm | ||
| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | Trust me, if there was wings I'd have known about it! - Sun, 10 May 2009 12:19am | ||
| Doc User Info... | I'm glad to hear that no one was hurt, and I'm also glad to hear that you had a positive experience with security, although, I am still a little concerned about security at Sugar. I remember going there to see Fear Factory and Suffocation, security searched me thoroughly for weapons and contraband, then allowed my fiancee to walk right in wearing her leash made of 1/2" chain link. Not that she intented to, but if that thing were used as a weapon it could so someone some serious harm. ~Proudly serving medium rare chicken for 13 years. Doc - Sun, 10 May 2009 12:40am | ||
| grimlord User Info... | You can totally serve chicken rare. - Sun, 10 May 2009 12:51am | ||
| Yesser User Info... | I mentioned Criminal Negligence because thats what it is. Just because the level of damages were minimized because luckily someone who there to stop it, it doesn't mean that there was no negligence. The BAND and/or guest could easily be held responsible for the damages. Whether it be a couch or a room load of 99 people (Great White) it is NEGLIGENCE. And for Grimlord the one with the grade 9 education, here ya go. ---------------------------------------------------------- Criminal negligence CRIMINAL CODE OF CANADA Section 219. (1) Every one is criminally negligent who (a) in doing anything, or (b) in omitting to do anything that it is his duty to do, shows wanton or reckless disregard for the lives or safety of other persons. -------------------------------------------------------- Ok? Idiots. - Sun, 10 May 2009 7:58am Edited: Sun, 10 May 2009 7:59am | ||
| Yesser User Info... | To show you exactly what I meant I will explain further. The band could be held responsible because it was their DUTY to ensure that only responsible and AUTHORIZED guests be allowed in the back room. Inviting irresponsible people shows wanton or disregard for public safety. The dumb chick who used a lighter to look for something under the couch had the DUTY to ensure that no fire was caused. Due to her disregard to public safety she chose not to unsure she caused any fires. If someone was hurt, the Venue could be held responsible because they had the DUTY to ensure that they provide a safe place for patrons. Which is why they booted the band and guests. I know I am right. Shut and closed. Just because we didn't have 99 people die, it doesn't mean there was no negligence. YES everyone has used a lighter from time to time, but we ALL make sure we aren't torching the place as we do it. Had the person who put out the fire gotten burned the slightest, it is a case for Criminal Negligence. Now instead of constantly disagreeing with me Grimlord and uttering retarded commentary...open your eyes/ears and take in what I have to say/type. It may give you some good tips for when you ever decide to go to high school and take criminal studies. They offer that at Grade 10 and beyond. - Sun, 10 May 2009 8:08am Edited: Sun, 10 May 2009 8:09am | ||
| FISH User Info... | You can't fully blame the band when there is a bouncer at the bottom of the stairs allowing anyone up. Is it not his DUTY to see that only authorized persons are in the back rooms? Im just not sure why your so quick to point the blame? And you still never answered if you were there or not. - Sun, 10 May 2009 8:52am | ||
| Bouncing Fork User Info... | I'm going to sue the Hoosegow for damages! I demand 16 dollars, 3 large pizzas, and a gram of blow! - Sun, 10 May 2009 10:52am | ||
| Yesser User Info... | "Im just not sure why your so quick to point the blame?" Are you an EMO girl? I am not blaming anyone who isn't at fault. The stupid chick, the band, the venue. You Springer watcher wanna bring emotion to everything and cry like little crankies. Someone did something fuckin' stupid. I was just telling the foo' who publicly stated fault at the girl to stfu and consider the consequences. You want me to answer whether I was there or not? What the fuck does that have to do with anything.? I am going by what was wrote here. Plus I was the first to say that going on 3rd party information on something like this should do so lightly. None of my information is being used here. I am stating facts. Was I there or not? What a fucking stupid question. "You can't fully blame the band when there is a bouncer at the bottom of the stairs allowing anyone up" Absolutely my point. Management has to stop allowing Yoko Onos up in the band room. Was I there or not? That's like asking someone who is a critic of the Holocaust.."Were you there?" Go back to watching Gossip Girl. - Sun, 10 May 2009 11:30am Edited: Sun, 10 May 2009 11:42am | ||
| FISH User Info... | What's gossip girl? When the fuck did I start crying about anything? I never said don't blame the band. You sure get excited easily... but still have not answered the question. Seeing as how the original post was "3rd party information" how can you be so sure thats what actually happened. Please pull your head out of your ass. Tell us, how many shows have you played where people try and get backstage? Are you even a musician? Or some try hard law student that has nothing better to do than come on here and post your opinions? - Sun, 10 May 2009 11:58am Edited: Sun, 10 May 2009 12:21pm | ||
| grimlord User Info... | "I am going by what was wrote here" Which is total HEARSAY Unless the persons responsible for the act of setting the couch on fire comes on here and says it was her falt,then all of this means nothing.Sure Ty was there but he did not witness what happened so he can vouch for the people that were there in that room. And for one thing... THIS IS NOT A COURT OF LAW YOU FUCKING DARTFUCK! - Sun, 10 May 2009 12:28pm Edited: Sun, 10 May 2009 12:30pm | ||

| Mike S. User Info... | Glad to hear everything got dealt with at Sugar and that nobody was hurt. Sounds like the tour manager was a royal tool but that is typical of many tour managers. - Sun, 10 May 2009 1:26pm | ||
| Yesser User Info... | "Seeing as how the original post was "3rd party information" how can you be so sure thats what actually happened" I am going by what I read on the original post. Holy fuck. Do you think that replying with these questions takes away from the value of my opinion. My comments were to the original poster of the thread. HE is the one who is saying she started the fire. Not me. Not anyone else. ONLY HIM. That's my whole point of posting. To tell him to stfu. I haven't answered the question as to if I was there or not because it means nothing. Ty says that his guest burned a couch. I am saying that he shouldn't come on here saying that. It could open a whole other can of beans. I can understand why Grimlord can't understand my point as he only has a grade 9 education and his english is the shits. But for any of you to think I came on here to place blame you have got the brains of Grimlord. Grimlord please girl. You have been fishing at me since I quit pissing on you. How about you stop your cycle of making yourself out to be an idiot. Looks like you think I am Jeff now? What is it? Loser. - Sun, 10 May 2009 1:48pm Edited: Sun, 10 May 2009 1:49pm | ||
| FISH User Info... | "You can be held responsible for your guests actions. Mmk?" sounds like finger pointing to me... - Sun, 10 May 2009 2:30pm | ||

| FISH User Info... | name calling eh? Isn't that what you give grimlord such a hard time about? Maybe I'll go cry and cut myself like the litte emo bitch you seem to think I am... Again you've based your entire argument on a statement you said was heresay to begin with. Way to go. Why don't you go watch some more Law & Order. . - Sun, 10 May 2009 6:09pm | ||

| Yesser User Info... | "Again you've based your entire argument on a statement you said was heresay to begin with. Way to go. " Hey moron. Everything I say is based on what the poster said. Whether it is 100% fact makes no difference here. I told him he shouldn't be posting this information on here. And NOTHING I say is heresay. Remember? Scroll up. You will see. Yes that part. Yes the part where I post the Criminal Code of Canada. That isn't heresay. Is it? I highly suggest you go fight a war you are equipped to fight Fish. Slashing wits with me is about as useless as Grimlord writing a Grade 10 Basic Math exam. Pointless. I also suggest that you READ posts before trying to come off as something more than an under-achiever living at home. Or are you Grimlord's room-mate? You idiot. - Sun, 10 May 2009 6:37pm | ||
| ROSS B AY User Info... | Hey Yesser, I'm not involved here in any way but I was just wondering who you are? - Sun, 10 May 2009 7:02pm | ||
| FISH User Info... | Show me where I said that something you said was heresay. You went off about criminal negligence based on someones second hand version of the story. It makes all the difference if the story is true. I'm glad you've mastered the art of copy and paste, it's doing you wonders in defending yourself. "I also suggest that you READ posts before trying to come off as something more than an under-achiever living at home. Or are you Grimlord's room-mate?" I thought you knew everything about him? You keep saying you do. If that is the case then you would be aware that I'm not his roomate. But I guess it takes one to know one eh?(regarding the under-acheiver living at home comment) You don't come off sounding very intelligent yourself throwing around such clever insults such as idiot and moron. Your friend grimlord can call someone out better than that. xoxo gossip girl. - Sun, 10 May 2009 7:10pm | ||
| FISH User Info... | Good point Rb. Who are you anyways? - Sun, 10 May 2009 7:11pm | ||
| Yesser User Info... | I am Yesser. Just an online opinion maker. Perish Rules! - Sun, 10 May 2009 9:28pm | ||
| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | I should clarify something. I said she was our "guest" but I should have said that she was our guest in that we were the only people in the band area that she would have known. The promoter had asked us to keep people in back to a minimum, and I thought he would have told the security at the bottom of the stairs the same thing. I'm not sure why she was up there. As for the reason that anyone should believe anything I say, I think that having been a part of this music community for well over ten years should stand for something. I don't talk shit, nor do my band mates. I am also curious about Yessir's stake in this and his/her identity. - Sun, 10 May 2009 9:30pm | ||
| FISH User Info... | C'mon Yesser... show your face. Or at least let us know when your playing next so we can all not come and then pick apart the events from that night on a messageboard! - Sun, 10 May 2009 9:38pm | ||
| Yesser User Info... | "...let us know when your playing next so we can all not come and then pick apart the events from that night on a messageboard!" No one had to be there to know that she is an idiot, like you FISH, to start a fire that way. And, like you, there is probably no point in even trying to talk sense to. So I wont keep trying. - Sun, 10 May 2009 9:59pm | ||
| TheBlack Pixie User Info... | Yesser, I have a feeling that no matter what issue that is brought up on this discussion board you would choose to take the side where you'd be most antagonized. I am glad you are just a figment of the internet and I don't have to deal with you face to face because it would black and blue by now. It's a sorry life you lead when you are reduced to firing up people on an internet music site in order to fulfill your obvious neeed for attention. So why don't you just realize that your shit does stink and get off your high horse on LiveVic - Sun, 10 May 2009 10:19pm | ||
| grimlord User Info... | FUCK OFF Should we all now bow to the all mighty Yesser Just like TBP said,you are all tough on people for the most retarded stuff.A we all know you have no life but to sit at home watching judge Judy all day and pissing people off all over the net.What a life yo live. - Sun, 10 May 2009 10:26pm Edited: Sun, 10 May 2009 10:28pm | ||
| Yesser User Info... | "I am glad you are just a figment of the internet and I don't have to deal with you face to face .." I am glad too. You are so cross-eyed that I wouldn't know which eye to look at. You ever get that situation? It's rather uncomfortable. You and Grimlord should hook up. - Sun, 10 May 2009 10:29pm | ||
| TheBlack Pixie User Info... | Eventhough I am for ya grim, I have to point out the irony in the fact that you spend a large chunk of time(ie life) arguing with yesser. Oh and Yesser, darling, at least I have the guts to post a photo, make my identity clear and not hide like a scared little yappy bitch. - Sun, 10 May 2009 10:32pm | ||
| trevor corey User Info... | It would be so fucking boring around here without Yessir. I live at home........... with my wife...........and my dogs. Am I emo if I cut OTHER people? - Sun, 10 May 2009 10:33pm | ||
| TheBlack Pixie User Info... | And here is some other advice: I can easily walk away from this war of words and not let it get to me. Yesser will think he won some sort of battle, but in reality he didn't. He is dependent on people to challenge him and make him feel relevant. So lets just leave the little fuck wad alone, it will be the worst torture for him to not have anyone to argue with - Sun, 10 May 2009 10:48pm | ||
| grimlord User Info... | This is true...I would never say that I don't spend a lot of time on here.Just that there are always people like yesser who think they know you but are nowhere and are going nowhere in life and they are mad that there life sucks so hard. At least I go out and party and have lots of friend to hang out with.Hockey at my pad tomorrow!WWOOOOOOOO!!! - Sun, 10 May 2009 10:51pm | ||

| Yesser User Info... |  Nope. I had nothing to do with you being ugly and overweight. So I can't take the credit. "At least I go out and party and have lots of friend to hang out with.Hockey at my pad tomorrow!WWOOOOOOOO!!! " Grameme keeps arguing with me online. He has no idea who I am. That's the funniest part. I realise that arguing on the internet is like being in the Special Olympics, but pinging off of Graeme's replies are too easy. He thinks I don't know him, and only his friends can see his Facebook page. Hold on, I am going to go and copy his FB page and end ALL the mystery. Ta DA! "Networks:Vancouver, BCSex:MaleBirthday:November 7, 1970Hometown:Victoria, BCRelationship Status:SingleInterested In:Women Political Views:Pull The PinReligious Views:At Logun's on sep.9 th be there" Let me Guess. You already posted all of this here on Live Victoria? I also pulled a picture from his profile. One that he can't claim he already posted here on live victoria. Can't figure out who I am? Idiot. Now Graeme. It's over. ok? You tried to intimidate me a while back with your illiterate janter and I spat it back in your face. Good Luck Graeme. I mean that. Judging by your intelligence it must be very exciting to go to a bar and drink beer every day. I am proud of all your friends.

Was that suppose to be an insult? because those are just facts and nothing everyone wasen't allready aware of. Sorry, I guess you're going to have to find another way to debase me..oh, dear. - Mon, 11 May 2009 7:13am | ||

| FISH User Info... | Again yesser, maybe YOU should read the posts before you reply. Not once did I say the girl wasn't at fault. And the arguing on the internet thing gets me too.. your the one who seems to have your panties all in a knot over it. - Mon, 11 May 2009 7:35am | ||
| sumyungai User Info... | Attacking others' appearances, Yesser? Wow, I am so impressed by your obvious intellect. Your ability to craft a persuasive argument puts you up there with our finest lawyers and politicians. Ad hominems (name calling to you, Yesser) are the last refuge of the incompetent (read stupid). The Legislature awaits you. I would love to see a photo, or better yet why don't you let us all know the next time you're playing so we can all learn from the master exactly how we all suck. Oh, and TBP, from what I can gather from your profile pics, you are a far cry from ugly. Finally, y'all should come down to The Fernwood on Wednesday to check out Rosco Lux, an eclectic blend of Funk, Latin, Reggae and Rock. A special invitation to Yesser; I'm sure we could use your wisdom and experience. Free plugs rule! - Mon, 11 May 2009 7:40am | ||
| Yesser User Info... | "Attacking others' appearances, Yesser?" To be honest. I don't have a clue who BlackPixie is. I thought that was obvious. But there is no sarcasm button. I apologise. I just noticed that she has a pic up. Total coincidence. - Mon, 11 May 2009 8:27am | ||
| grimlord User Info... | Okay short stuff. First I turned that security function off,just so you would go on there and post all that stuff about me here.And I knew you would and you did.Crazy basted . - Mon, 11 May 2009 10:11am | ||
| Yesser User Info... | Of course you did Grimlord, of course you did. Pretty weak response coming from a guy who's plan, to have me add a private pic and copy and paste his FB, came through . Would think that you'd be all excited. You done now? I think I proved my point. Stop making stupid comments to me like you did on this thread and things will go fine for you Grimlord. I do want to stop defending myself here ya know. Ok? I am done ruining this thread. - Mon, 11 May 2009 11:55am Edited: Mon, 11 May 2009 11:57am | ||

Unfortunate (stupid) mistake, totally reasonable reaction. Wow, I haven't posted on LiveVictoria in a Looong time. Probably because by the time I get to reading any interesting thread it's already turned into ANOTHER Grim/Yesser angry-sex fantasy. Dead horse. - Mon, 11 May 2009 3:01pm | ||

| Mr. Hell User Info... | "I M NOT GUY YESSER" There is an 'A' missing in that phrase. Whether it comes after 'NOT' or between the 'G' and 'Y' is a mystery to me. Even weirder is how the 'U' and 'A' are nowhere near each other on the keyboard.. - Mon, 11 May 2009 5:08pm | ||

| Yesser User Info... | "can't stand getting owned every single time by me,what can I say" Pretty funny you think you 'own' (whatever that means) me especially after you immidiately delete your facebook profile once I posted that stuff. I guess you can no longer argue the whole mistaken identity, eh? That's called 'own'-ing I think. Good Luck Graeme. Too easy. - Mon, 11 May 2009 8:23pm | ||

| Yesser User Info... | "Till then anyone know someone in internet law??.This guy has invaded my old phone and email...Do I have a case??" Poor Baby. Looks like his game has gotten him a little mad. I thought Grimlord's whole argument was that ANY information I have about him he has publicly posted prior. So maybe he can put a case in agains't himself? Didn't Graeme just say that he 'owns' me? Now he is pleading for some advice on how to place charges. What a gimp. He wants to say he has a case against someone who doesn't know him. HAHAHAHA HAHAHAHA I didn't think I would get something as funny as that from this clown before bedtime. He never ceases to amaze me. Tonight I have been Jeff Noyes, an Online Bully who "invaded" his phone number (whatever that means) and someone who doesn't even know him. I still don't think it is against the law to invade a phone number. CHARGE! - Mon, 11 May 2009 11:09pm Edited: Mon, 11 May 2009 11:13pm | ||

| Chopper User Info... | "Till then anyone know someone in internet law??.This guy has invaded my old phone and email...Do I have a case??" If you're stupid enough to put that info on the net so it's easily found, no you have no case. Although you could get off your ass and inform your phone carrier, be that shaw, telus or cel carrier, that you're getting harassing calls and let them deal with it. Not that you'll go that route, you seem to enjoy the attention a little too much... - Tue, 12 May 2009 9:52am | ||
| grimlord User Info... | I have had personal emails from him..that is how I got the IP.I then had a friend help me (cuz I could never type as fast or know where to go)and found it was from a provider here in Vic.So I contacted this provider and gave them the IP and told them about the situation,and thay told me thay would investigate more for this was not the first time this IP was brought to there attention.And ever since then they have stopped. And no..I just want to see this clown exposed. - Tue, 12 May 2009 10:08am Edited: Tue, 12 May 2009 10:14am | ||

| Tyler User Info... | it's unfortunate that this thread went in this direction. I appreciate Ty's account of the situation. it was a fun read and does explain a real life situation that could have gotten out of hand. it's too bad that this is the internet, and things got out of hand in a very different way.

| ROSS B AY User Info... | Hey yeah I thought this was supposed to be about burning that bar down? - Tue, 12 May 2009 6:00pm | ||
| TheBlack Pixie User Info... | Ultimately, as a promoter in that situation, I would have to ask the band to leave the venue. Accidents happen, yes, and I don't think the band should be put soley in the place of fault. It is the promoter and the venue/venue security, who are responsible to oversee the show and insure the safety of all the guests; however, the band is responsible for people they bring backstage- especially if they are listed as a guest becauase then that signifies that the band is acknowledging its responsibility. So I think the promoter was in the right to send the band away from the venue- because when it comes down to it, the promoter's ass is always on the line with these types of issues and it is a lot easier for a band to leave the show, explain their side of the story and then continue on. But like I said, accidents happen and in no way am I happy that a band had to leave a show. - Tue, 12 May 2009 8:23pm | ||

| KIMBERLEYKAOS User Info... | Stupid back stage band whores if they are not burning your crotch their burning your couch. BAWHAhahahaha. Oh dilly, THAT made the pain of reading this thread ALL WORTH WHILE. Fuck, I thought I had annoying moments on livevic, WELCOME YESSER... Came across this...made me smile, in urban dictionary... drunken yesser 3 thumbs up a person who makes plans and/or says yes to anything when drunk, then at the next sober point in their life, changes their mind and/or retracts aforementioned plans or agreements Coincidence? Nevermind the ranting try hard, but if GLENN DA MANG had not managed to get that shit stomped, imagine...if it went up good, and spread to the stairs and stage, and outward like it would... It would have been GREAT WHITE for sure. Main exits on both sides...for the most part. Falling burning ceiling (floor, band room) on the stairs out...both sides... I think more praise is fucking due. PS FISH WINS. - Wed, 13 May 2009 2:49am | ||
| codine vandal User Info... | to yesser, your comment about criminal negligence is wrong....your def is correct but your application wouldn't count. the band in no way told her to light the fire or knew she lit it .therefore how could they knowingly put peoples life in danger. Glen had no knowledge of the fire before he put it out , making the band exempt from responsibility. The girl would be the one to blame. she lit the fire and she didn't say anything about it.plus i don't know if you've ever been to a show but lots of people go back stage.to say that 1 band should be paying attention to everything going on is unreasonable. I would say they reasonably dealt with the situation ,given the circumstances.now had glen just left and said nothing yeah, then it's criminal negligence. P.S. Fuck Gordon Campbell - Wed, 13 May 2009 6:09am Edited: Wed, 13 May 2009 6:31am | ||
| J User Info... | yesser = selfless nerd who wanted so badly to learn anything musical but fell short when he found out his midgit digits could wrap themselves around a neck or drumstick; so now resorts to being a fitting roll on the internet... a troll.

| jackass User Info... | Death By Stereo already had a bad experience at a show once where a bunch of people were injured and one person died. I'm sure they're not all that excited about the idea of a fire. - Wed, 13 May 2009 12:51pm Edited: Wed, 13 May 2009 12:51pm | ||
| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | zane: DBS was on stage when all this shit happened, and I talked to them afterwards. They were fine. It was just the Strung Out tour manager that was laying all the blame at our feet. At any rate, it's over. No one got hurt so all is well. - Wed, 13 May 2009 9:01pm | ||
| grimlord User Info... | BTW Yesser is a WAY bigger douche bag than you. nothing personal but your spelling is fucking ridiculous.

| TheBlack Pixie User Info... | "i don't know if you've ever been to a show but lots of people go back stage.to say that 1 band should be paying attention to everything going on is unreasonable." Shows are fucking crazy- people trying to sneak in, people trying to get backstage, people having fun, people being assholes, people being drunk, people trying to screw around in the bathrooms. But just because a band signs on the play a show doesn't mean there isn't some responsibility involved, in fact, I deem in common courtesy to the promoter. It is unreasonable to think that the promoter has the power to put out fires/fights/technical difficulties..etc, in 50 billion places at once. So the band should know that those who it deems as "guests" of the band, are the responsibility of the band as well as the responibilty of the promoter. The number one thing I loathe as a promoter (not that I'm saying this about you) is bands who think they are hot shot, music gods and can do anything they want..not only does their arrogance become trouble for me because they refuse to do simple things for me like try and keep the back room semi-clean when you leave, don't vandalize and if you are at an all ages show, save your drinking for later and for the love of christ don't buy beer for minors (I've had this happen and I tossed the band out of the show). I just hate it when promoters are disrespected and people don't take the time to walk a mile in their shoes at a show. - Fri, 15 May 2009 1:51pm | ||
| grimlord User Info... | I have to hand it to you promoters out there.. Tough job that nobody wants ta do... You people do a hell of a job and never get enough thanks for it. Sometime you put up ..and win.. Sometimes you lose... And that hurts the pocket book. But you still move on to the next.. If it wasn't for good people doing good things for music in Victoria we would have a harder job ourselves,so thanks to all the cool promoters out there. - Fri, 15 May 2009 7:53pm | ||

| Ty Stranglehold User Info... | I have no ill will towards the promoter of the show, in fact (as I posted somewhere up there) I was really happy how smooth everything was going until "the incident". I also posted somewhere up there that "guest" was the wrong choice of words on my part in the original post. The person in question is a friend of the band's, but I do not know how or why she was backstage. I really just feel that the promoter panicked in the face of the tour manager freaking out. I understand this. I also understand asking those people involved to leave (I don't think I ever mentioned that the girl with the lighter was NOT kicked out even after she told staff that it was her fault). What I don't agree with is going through the bar and gathering up everyone associated with the band and asking them to leave. At any rate, it's history. - Fri, 15 May 2009 10:44pm | ||
