Play Something We all Know!

What's the best heckle you've had on stage, was there one that just threw you and you couldn't think of a witty comeback?

We were playing in Whakatane a couple of years ago and, I got so sick of hearing this one guy yelling "Play something we all know" that I went backstage between sets and wrote some lyrics to a track that we'd been rehearsing and called the song "Something We All Know", in retrospect the song sucked but at least we shut the dumb son of a bitch up!

Forums: NZ Music,

haha

nothing really negative, when I was playing guitar in Rimjaw we had one guy yell out something about ''oooh a girlie playing in a metal band' I just said, yeah I got tired of playing with ya mama :) I know.. I'm a bit sick

not much else springs to mind

cool, go bogan chicks! Bust some balls with ur tongue of ice! (i said that in a non sexual way)

... play some slayer...

Brilliant.

Best compliment I've ever had... "my neck hasn't hurt that much since Pantera!... and you guys are local!" - with reference to Idle Faction...

play some fuckin a AC/DC! i spose that ain't too bad though is it? in fact, a pretty cool request come to think of it. mite have played the opening riff to back in black if i can remember rightly...

16 years old, introducing a song about Ruth Richardson called Ruthless...(a really shit song I might add) in a notorious pub in New Plymouth. Huge skinhead yells out "JUST CUZ YOU TAKE IT UP THE ARSE".
Deathly silence, somewhere in the distance a dog barked I think...I was yet to learn the art of the comeback.
The skinhead dude stands in front of the bass player Dylan for most of the gig giving him the evils - Dylan was terrified the whole gig and it showed.
He can't have hated us too much though as he ended up dancing and yelling out "Oi fuckin Oi," which varied later to "Oi fuckin Cow"...I think his name was Sledge.

Ah yes the mighty NP skinheads, even if you do think of a good comeback you often have to just let the moment slide!

I was probably at the same gig, where my friend had her head kicked by the skinheads' skinhead girlfriends in their steel cap boots. I really wish I was proud of where I came from... I know taranaki will pull through one day!

On The Man or Astroman? live album entitled ..Live Transmisions from Uranus...

a random heckler Shouts out... "Shut the Fuck Up, Mc Beth"

The lead singer replys Graciously "Thanks for the Silloquay(did i spell that wright), Lets Play a song"

plus theres much more ...on the rest of the CD

Drunk people sometimes think they are the shit and diss you during your set, but usually you can convince the crowd to push them over or punch them or something. Dunno whether Id convince the crowd to do it to a huge drunken skinhead though... unless I was one myself. We didnt really often play to huge drunken skinheads though, thank god.
