Some of you old school metal heads or punks might find this funny...
So I was speaking to a drummer I jam with sometimes and he is currently jamming with Mike Clark from Suicidal Tendencies. Anyway, last night he tells my buddy a story that went down in some Eastern/Central European country like the Czech Republic
or somewhere around there. Anyway, they were playing some festival that Yngwie Malmsteen was also playing at. If you know about Suicidal Tendencies then you know that Rocky George is the other (lead) guitar player and is a big dude. Turns out, he really didn't like Yngwie to begin with. So later that day or night Rocky and Mike walk into their bus to see Yngwie and his girl inside their bus eating their donuts and stuff. So Rocky says "what the fuck dude? Get the fuck out of here."
Ingwei turns to him and says "you do not want me to release the Swedish wrath onto you", or some stupid ass shit like that. I'm assuming he was hammered because Ingwie was a drunk. So shit happens and Rocky puts a beat down on Ingwie and gets him out of their bus. Well Ingwie was not wanting to let it go and was banging on their bus door. So Rocky who somehow had a cattle prod stashed in the bus, gets it out and tells Mike to open the door when he tells him to. So Rocky has the cattle prod and tells Mike to open the tour bus door and sure as shit here comes Ingwie Malmsteen all worked up and ready to fight all screaming some Norseman type Viking bullshit.
Zap!!!! Cattle prod to the chest and Malmsteen is fucking lights out flat on his back.
Party over! So Suicidal end up bailing the country after the show and Ingwie checked himself into a hospital. I think he tried suing them but didn't get shit.
So years later they are in New Orleans and walk into a bar and they hear Malmsteen jamming on the juke box or sound system they have. Rocky turns to Mike and says "great" sarcastically as they walk in. Low and behold there is Ingwie on top of a table playing air guitar to his solo that is playing on the sound system. Douchey, right? Well Mile and Rocky are like WTF? So Rocky just stops, points and starts laughing at Ingwie standing on the table air guitaring to his own solo. Well Ingwie stops and sees Rocky and starts shouting while pointing at Rocky "oh no, no, no, not you!!!" and jumps off the table and bails.
I found it pretty funny because Ingwie is so full of himself and tried pulling his "don't make me release the Viking, swede, Norseman bullshit on a big ass brotha from culver city. Classic, I laughed so hard today at that, I felt I had to share.
