Tis basically to look for anything to do with music, be it new music releases, tour details or just general interest! This following my Jurassic 5 Post I think a topic like this will be pretty suitable rather then posting a new topic bout every little piece of news, feel free to add ur own story.
Let me start
Self Mutilation At Modest Mouse Gig!
On March 18th Modest Mouse played Sioux Falls, nothing that interesting there so far. It is reported (and backed up by video footage) that during Moon & Antarctica faviroute 'Tiny Cities Made Of Ashes' lead vocalist and guitarist Isaac Brock got so pissed off with the fact the mic werent working properly that he began repeadidly beating himself over the head with his mic, as if that wasn't strange and bad enough he then proceeded to display a pocket knife, Isaac then began to cut a wound in his chest before a stage hand rushed onto the stage and wrestled the knife off of Isaac, at first it was quite a struggle but then Isaac let him take it and procceded to joke in his ear. The gig did go on however with Isaac clearly dazed.

You see isaac hit swing the mic into his head and display the knife to the crowd at the end, though the video quality is quite poor. You dont see the actual cutting.

Clearly dazed and with a massive blood wound on his t-shirt Isaac continues to play Modest Mouses hit 'Float On'
Maybe the most rock n roll thing to happen live for a long time.... or maybe just a publicity stunt to promote the new album?
