gallows front man throttled at recent gig

[samsaBEAR]

anyone hear about this?
here's what happened;



(sighs) This kid started trying to strangle me. I kept trying to prise his fingers off my throat but every time i got on off he'd grab me again. Eventually I realised i was going to black out, so i tried to climb on to the stage. Then i was just gone.

When i woke up i saw him giving me the finger, and daring me to get back in. I lost my temper and dived in to bash his ******* face in, but as soon as he saw me coming he recoiled and i found myself restrained by security guards. It's sad because it's getting to the point where i can't go into the crowd anymore.

ive seen gallows live, and those who havent but like them know that frank is famed for diving in the crowd and the like.
i think its disgusting that someone has paid money just to try and make the night really ******.
what do you think about it?

[Grindie]

i was there, that guy was a pr*ck, i'm surprised he managed to get out the venue without getting his head kicked in. at least frank got a few hits to the head with his mic on the geezer who was doing it

[The Undertaker]

I think thats absolutely stupid :l What an idiot.

[surfer]

ha i just read it in nme aswell :p
i know its pathetic!
i cant belive why anyone would want to do that
if you dont like him dont pay to go and see him!
but he also seems really depressed.
and hes already confirmed that he wont be staying in gallows forever as he wants to be a tatoo artist so..
maybe an early break up if the new songs dont go well.
anyway i love gallows hope it all turns out ok for em

[John!]

I don't understand what the guy was thinking he was probably drunk and high to do something like that. Why weren't the other Gallows fans around helping?

yeh i wondered that.
im sure he got his just desserts at some point during the gig.

in the interview he also mentioned about how they have written a new song for about 4- months, and they're sick of touring with just their debut album. which i agree with, i really think they need to bring out a new album if they want to be around much longer.

something also happened at the gig at the 100 club i think, but i cannot find this weeks kerrang! in my house.

[Grindie]

yeahh, he did seem a bit drunk

i think everyone was so surprised that he choked frank in the first place, that no one though about starting anything with him

i guess he didnt listen to what anti flag had to say about how the people in the audience were a community

[Tbh]

i think Frank Carter is a ****
/end of

[cunning]

Sad, but shizzle happens...

[LoveHateHero]

i think Frank Carter is a ****
/end of

I think that too but violence isn't the answer. I felt really bad when I read that just now, even though I have thought he was a *****, it still wasn't the right thing to do..

Also agreeing with above, god knows how he made it out of the venue alive.

[samsaBEAR]

sometimes i think he's *****, but in loads of interviews he just seems to be a geniune guy
i just dont like how he always says about the band is second to his tattooing. if he truely thought thought, he'd leave the band surely

[Charlie]

That is pretty bad. I mean, does the guy even like the band and was just off his face and felt like doing it or does he hate them or something? Because why would you pay money to go to a gig just to strangle the lead singer? And, it's not something you could boast about because it really isn't on.

hmm..

theres absolutely no need for that & yeah it ruins the night.

personally i think frank carter's a ***** and I don't like him whatsoever.

I've seen the Gallows live, and as a group they're pretty good - but Frank Carter makes me angry.

And no I wasn't the guy throttling him xd

[Tbh]

i loved @ taste of chaos - portsmouth
how people were punching him in the ******** when he crowd surfed
was epic

[untrustus]

yeah i read about this in nme. ******* idiot, who would pay to go and see a band then try and kill the singer..? :/

a hired hitman?

[Antallica]

Big headed tosspot anyway [frank]

I saw Gallows ages ago when they toured with bullet, hes a cocky person. He dissed like everybody's shirt they wore, like A7X EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW. He's pathetic.

[YoManGo!]

can i just say, gallows suck but their dancing with the rude boys cover was very well done. that's my view.

[samsaBEAR]

o hi spud.
hows it hanging?
yeh i loved that cover, i loved the original

[YoManGo!]

hai sam
just nice and low ;)
and how are you?

had sudden urges to come back on here.

oh + also about gallows: they choose sick support bands.

[samsaBEAR]

lol
its hanging the same thanks :D
i missed your opinionated arguments with people

[Neil]

Lol I hate this band, I can't stand the music and it sounds like a chav trying to sing metal but paying to try beat the hell out of him is just sad xD I don't see why anyone would want to do it at all but I guess he deserves it for ruining Kerrang and being played alot lol

it's got nothing to do with metal and they aren't chavs...
it is actually a fairly bad attempt at hardcore
but still, gallows > every other kerrang! covered band.
