LAMB OF GOD Frontman 'Disgusted' By Audience's Refusal To Honor Dead Children And Teachers - Dec. 16, 2012
LAMB OF GOD frontman Randy Blythe says that he has "never been more disgusted with an audience" in his life more than he was this past Friday, December when his band performed in Medford, Oregon.

After Randy apparently called for 60 seconds of silence during LAMB OF GOD's set to honor the victims of the recent Connecticut school shooting, several people reportedly failed to comply, prompting Blythe to take to his Instagram account and voice his displeasure.

"I have never been more disgusted with an audience in my life. I wish we hadn't played," he wrote.

"We, LAMB OF GOD, asked for sixty seconds of silence during our first set break to honor the dead children and teachers in Connecticut. It seemed appropriate — it's a goddamned national TRAGEDY.

"Most of the crowd complied, but several didn't, some cursing and even laughing.

"I wanted to walk off stage.

"I am so disgusted right now.

"If you were one of those who wouldn't shut up for SIXTY LOUSY SECONDS to honor twenty MURDERED CHILDREN, go look in the mirror. You are looking at a piece of shit. Your parents are obviously pieces of shit too, because they raised you to behave with no dignity.

"To the fans who were respectful, I thank you. I am also sorry you have so many goddamned assholes in your community. You should do something about that.

"This shit would not have happened at a LAMB OF GOD show where I live, and that is a FACT. We have more manners.

"I am just disgusted. Thoroughly DIGUSTED. You yelling people give metal a band name. Screw that, you give humanity a bad name. Grow up. Your parents should have beaten some manners into you, you savage little beasts.

"With that, I will go to bed, say a prayer for those suffering, and hope for a better day tomorrow, because tonight SUCKED."

The mass shooting at a Connecticut elementary school on Friday resulted in the deaths of twenty-eight people, including 20 schoolchildren. It was the second-deadliest school shooting in U.S. history, behind the 2007 Virginia Tech mass shooting that left 32 dead.

What the fuck does his ego have to do with this? If you are sticking up for people who have no respect for the kids who got shot, fuck you. And as far as your pathetic little pokes at religion goes, you will one day regret what you have said. And with that being said, may the victims of friday's shooting rest in peace. You are in a better place than this world for sure.

What do you expect its a Metal show people are there to forget about their miserable lives. Fans in Oregon have no connection to what happened in Conneticut.

I'm sure if you asked for a minute silence a week ago on the anniversary of the murder of Darrell Abbott the crowd would be as quite as a Great White concert.

And if they stopped producing firearms this very day, you would still have massacres for hundreds if not thousands of years later. So keep right on with your blaming it on guns. But the point is very simple, somebody has to load, aim, and pull the trigger on that firearm. As the bumper sticker reads on my car, "gun conrol, simple solutions for simple minds. And if you can't see the big picture, all you have to do is open your eyes.

The biggest school massacre in the last 100 years was in Bath Township Michigan. 38 elementary school children were dead and several more were injured. The perpetrator was a local resident who was pissed off because he lost the election for county clerk. ..... AND NO GUNS WERE USED ......

I am a little surprised that Randy doesn't know the Metal crowd by now. There will always be beer swilling yard-ape retards, that is just the way it is. It was that way in '83 and it will be that way until the end of time.

And I would assume you would know those people probably do a lot worse than disrespect.

Get over it, seriously. It isn't worth the thought.

I don't blame the crowd,who gets wound up listening to the type of music they play then is able to mellow out at the drop of hat because this ass clown wants to be able to get some notiriaty out of a tragedy?

If he was as disgusted and pissed off as he claimed to be, he WOULD have walked off and not played the gig. That's what a real man would have done.

But no, in typical hypocritical style, he said something, some didn't comply, he stated his feelings after the fact and then bitched about it.

Sounds like how some of my extended family members handle things too....

I guess it does nothing, unless you do what is expected of you during that silent time. You are expected to pray to your god during the request for silence. Those of us who don't believe in prayer or an imaginary man in the sky just respect the others around us and stay silent when requested to do so.

How does it do anything, then? It expresses respect for the people around you.

but people that havent had to be around murders can seem really insensitive--to people who have had to be around it

i had to be around a senseless murder before--and boy did i learn a lesson--

but as hard as it could be for randy to realize right now---there are people that will use "sensitivity" to exploit those deaths---that are just as evil as the shooter was

was a bit presumptuous for Blythe to expect total silence for sixty seconds. But I'll hand it him, to get MOST of a crowd to be quiet was a helluva mountain to climb.

Don't dwell on the drunken slobs who couldn't be quiet for 3 seconds, let alone 60.

What you do now is thank the ones who went silent, and not even mention the scum that couldn't and wouldn't. They get no attention, NOTHING. Not even a mention in my book.

Just thank the ones who did, and it's a job well done.

It is right that everyone is outraged and appalled by what happened in Connecticut and many Americans do care about what is being done in their name to children and their families around the world. But for vast numbers, unfortunately, the theme here is true and not only in Amercia, either - in every other country where the horrors inflicted on children are judged on the basis of who they are, where they are and, still today, the colour of their skin and genetic origin.
Crazed Gunman kills 20 children => Americans are outraged but:
Drone Strikes kill hundreds of children in Pakistan => Americans don't give a f*ck !!!

I disagree with this. You can raise kids with every means possible to having them become 'good' upstanding people and, they might still turn out to be assholes.

Kids (these days) are growing up in a culture of me-gimmi-me-want. The raised on google generation is unlike any other.

Let me try to clear something up. "Freedom of speech" does not mean you get to say whatever you want without consequences. It simply means the government can't stop you from saying it. It also means OTHERS get to say what THEY think about your words.

So if someone makes an ass of himself, don't cry "freedom of speech" when others condemn him. It only highlights your general ignorance.

- George Takei

--------------------

Randy didn't go on an anti-gun rant or a religious rant. He asked for 60 seconds of SILENCE to remember 20 children who were MURDERED and he couldn't even get that.

I bet that if Randy asked for 60 seconds of silence for Dimebag, you could've heard a pin drop in that venue.

There's a time and a place for people to exercise their right to freedom of speech, but when someone asks for a moment of silence...that's not the time.

A moment of silence is about respect to the victims, their families and everyone that had to deal with that situation (survivors, police, fire, EMS). Nothing more.

I AGREE BRO. ITS NOT ASKING THAT MUCH SINCE, THE PEOPLE IN THE AUDIENCE DID NOT HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE HORROR THAT HAPPENED IN CONNETICUT. NOBODY CAN IMAGINE THE TRAGEDY THE FRIENDS AND FAMILIES ARE GOING THROUGH RIGHT NOW, AND IT WILL NEVER GO AWAY FOR THEM SADLY. I AM NOT SPEAKING AS A METAL FAN, BUT A FATHER. YOU HAVE MY RESPECT RANDY.

I live here and I can tell you that this whole area has some serious problems... Meth is rampant, as is murder, rape, theft and crimes of all natures. Not surprised at all by his disappointment/disgust.

What did he expect? Lamb of God always had a obnoxious redneck asshole audience. Plus, most Americans are so immune to school shootings that they barely blink a eye now. But the media will be pimping this tragedy for weeks to come.

LOL, since when did Randy become such a patriotic tool? I'm not saying what happened in CT wasn't horrible and shouldn't be recognized, but the Randy of 2002 or 2003 would have spent stage time mentioning the drone strikes that kill hundreds of children in Pakistan all the time.

No, I am standing up for people that don't what to be told what and how to think. Randy seems to forgotten that he has, fans, not followers. He is the one standing on the soap box, exploiting this for his own gain, his ego. People must listen to him because he is sooooo important. Do you think the families care about 60 sec? "Oh Martha did you hear about that nice boy from Lamb Of God that gave us a whole 60sec of silence, bless his heart." This is nothing but a Hallmark sympathy card.

So being dead is a better place? HA! I think there are 26 people that would disagree with your simplistic religious view. Praise Allah! Or whatever one of the thousands of true gods you blindly follow.

Or how about, I don't know, actually doing something?

Randy meant nothing but respect and was truley upset, the douchebag crowd made me bummed to be from oregon(portland is not like that). A few assholes dickheads wouldnt shut up then a bunch of others told them to shut up, it was just disg usting. There was no LOG ego or anything like that, they were just truely upset and wanted to show respect to connecticut. i have a ton of respect for what they tried to do, chad of hellyeah gave a very nice speech also. i hope hey never play medford again

There is scientific proof that prayer doesn't work.

In fact, in that study, the focus groups that had prayer happen for them, knowingly or unknowingly, had the least amount of success in the situation they were put in. Prayer doesn't do anything, it's the best way to do sweet nothing and make yourself feel better about it. "I prayed for you, now I'm off the hook".

What Randy failed to consider is that metalheads, in general, are disrespectful to authority. That metalheads throw full water bottles at the band during their performances should indicate this. Tough task Randy, nice try, but not gonna happen. Even for a tragedy as profound as the recent shooting

What Randy didn’t mention was that this minute of silence came after they had already played 3 or 4 songs and the crowd was riled up. Also, the two or three people who weren't silent were yelling “Lamb of God Rules” and “We Love You Randy.” Not anything to be demeaning towards the kids that lost their lives. I was at the show and those that didn’t remain silent obviously didn’t know WTF was going on.

Thank you Randy for saying what needed to be said. This fucking current society with the shameless, self serving "me, me, me" no respect for anything generation is what bred the fucking piece of shit that shot and killed 20 little defenseless INNOCENT babies. And to all you dIsgusting Atheist cunts, fuck you, for not having the decency to take a respectfull break from your anti-religious bullshit rants. It is for the sake of innocent children such as these as we hope for a loving God to welcome them home. You will, one day find out if there is in FACT a God or not based on REALITY instead of your opinion.

Randy, there are metalheads in our ranks who are complete douchebags, more concerned with not caring about shit like this because it's not "metal" to do that.

And I'll pour a nice hot cup of "shut the fuck up" to the doucher that posted "what about the kid you killed Randy"? The guy who died shouldn't have been getting up on the fucking stage to begin with! I'm sorry that the guy died, but it was his own actions that began that path, not Randy.

Cheers to you, Randy, for calling out those dumbasses jeering and laughing. Fuck those assholes.

He should have dragged the ones who making a noise up on to the stage, then thrown them off again.

I don't give a shit if you like Randy or Lamb of God, he's right about this, period.
Blackwater Park talks about how "blind hatred" is wrong, then posts nothing but hateful remarks against Randy.
