Guest Broskirose Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 (edited) So I guess this puts a damper on Randys Presidential campaign, eh?Seriously though...Randy is one of the best vocalists of all time. Hope he didn't do this. Edited June 28, 2012 by Broskirose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandallFlagg Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Decent band hope they ain't out of action for too long but if he did what he's accused of he's gotta pay the price, surely not intentional of him to hurt a fan! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kill Devil Hill Posted June 29, 2012 Author Share Posted June 29, 2012 Well, if he was just trying to get the guy out of his way and punched him in the temple, that would've killed him instantly and accidentally.But I really doubt this, tbh. I think Czech is making a big mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Czech is making a big mistake.he is out of jail now he had to pay 4 million dollars in czech money, which came to be about 200,000 american dollars. supposedly the guy jumped the barricade twice and was warned, on the third time the security went to get him but it was too late and he rushed the stage and blythe pushed him and he fell back into the crowd and hit his head, the guy went into a coma and died weeks later. this was in 2010 the czechs kept it quiet until LOG was supposed to tour with skeletonwitch and when blythe came back to the czech republic was arrested.safe to say he will stay clear of that country Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy shit! I feel bad for Randy. It wasn't really his fault. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Broskirose Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 I feel bad for him as well. People get pushed off the stage all the time at concerts. It's not like he tried to kill the guy. And the fan came on stage 2 times previous that. He has no one to blame but himself. Also, how the fuck does security let the same guy get on stage 3 times? Now Randy has to pay $200,000 and live the rest of his life knowing he killed someone. The fan and security are to blame here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
