The lesson to learn here kids is don't burst through security, climb onto a stage during a metal concert, run at one of the band members in a hostile fashion, and you won't get thrown to the ground.
I have no sympathy for the deceased. He made incredibly stupid decisions that put him where he is.
Excatly! Remember that time Dec 8, 2004? Fact is we don't know if someone is there to hug you of kill you. And guess what, if i'm gambling with a life it won't be mine. Cheers, Lucius

This is exactly what I was thinking. I'm pretty sure that incident went through Randy's mind as that dude was scaling the stage.
 
Or...just don't be a dumbass who tries to run across stages during metal concerts. Now THAT'S a concept.
No, here's a better idea. Let's stop the show, get a couple women to go talk to him and verbally guide him off the stage (as to not hurt this delicate Mensa candidate) and provide him with a grief counselor to make sure his pretty feelings are OK.

I've been to hundreds of shows since my first show in 1976. Throughout the years I've witnessed dozens of people jump on-stage, and in no instance did I ever witness a band member (or security) push anyone off of the stage. In one such show circa 1977, Cheap Trick and Peter Frampton had kids jumping up on-stage throughout their entire set. Security responded with minimal force by escorting each one of them stage in a civilized manner. If a fan is acting in a threatening manner, then of-course extreme action is warranted. This however was not the case. Pushing a fan off the stage because you "don't tolerate fans on the stage" does not warrant such a violent response. In the 70's and 80's, concert goes looked out for each other... This is obviously not the attitude amongst the nu-metal genre of concert goers. This kid (regardless of who says he deserved it) did not deserve to lose his life because he jumped up on a stage! I'm sorry - but jumping on the stage is a rock-and-roll tradition! :thumbsup: What this a--hole did was pure Nazi bullsh!t!

Expressing sympathy and treating others with humane courtesy... Now there's a concept.

did you see randy throw this kid off the stage?
no. maybe you saw footage of someone else being pushed off....turns out that footage that everyone was using to draw conclusions to, wasn't even daniel.

i agree...it's tragic that this dude died. period. who knows what happened between the concert and the time he died, 2 weeks later. we dont. we weren't there. weren't at the trial. etc etc and so on. fact is.

who wasn't treated humanely?

in a nutshell, the kid was at a metal show, drunk, and repeatedly got on stage several times, was warned, and, as he jumped into a somersault to crowd surf, the crowd parted, and he hit his head. he was removed from the venue and an ambulance was summoned.

no one else has died at a lamb of god show from "band abuse" or "being treated inhumanely". so now what?

keep monday morning quarterbacking, yeah, that helps.

Not a LOG fan, but sort of followed the drama. Glad the court found him not guilty. This was all bullshit if you ask me. Just the perception has been a huge blow for musicians and fans. Prague's an awesome city too for carrying this stigma.

A class move by Axle Rose. :thumbsup:


agreed.

what if that dude pulls a move like the dude who killed dime though?

scary shit....spur of the moment decisions.

or, what if when axl grabbed im by the head and tried to throw him to the side like he did, the dude falls, hits his head, and dies 2 weeks later?

or, the dude tries to take that move that axl did into a somersault and lands on the back of his head and dies 2 weeks later.

is it axl's fault?

of course not.
