Fights at gigs
Utterly pointless. I just got back from seeing The Maccabees, who were, despite my reservations, rather ace (and lovely to interview too). Anyway, I digress. Two lads started fighting and it turned into a pretty vicious ruck, as some other wideboys poured in. The band had to stop the gig to split them up...awful. If you're at a gig you're there for the music, and you've paid good money for that privilege. Why spoil it by getting tetchy about who's standing on your toes or ogling your girlfriend?
So, worst fights you've seen at gigs, and why do people do it?
