Radio Moscow: DG's Tap House (Jan. 7, 2012)

[timmc133]

I have watched a couple of live shows & interviews with the new lineup and though it isn't bad, it seems to me the new guys are hijacking Radio Moscow. They are talking over Griggs in the interview and on "250 miles" the song itself disappeared into the first solo. I realize that not every show or song should be played the same every time, but the old band played the original beat to the song. I wasn't at this show either but if he was bagging on them the entire show, then props to the drummer!

[SkyValleySpaceCadet]

his ego is already bigger than his success so far, that's bad. good luck finding and keeping a new rythm section that's any good.

[gkeeper1993]

this was just disappointing... saw this on guitar squid and expected to see something epic or a fight or something, but that was just really lame.... plus that moron shouldve caught the guitar when it was thrown back at him.... not to mention the fact that he shouldnt be throwing it @ the drummer anyways!! you NEVER should disrespect a guitar (or another musician's drum kit) like that... what a douche!!!

[dubcat123]

hell yeah! rock and roll! this is some straight up gg allin shit.

[Fordtista]

Saw them this weekend with Graveyard............If anyone sees my "mind" tell it to come home

[RazorLandStudio]

What a dick, the drummer should have swung it at him instead of throwing it.

[FollowersofDamu]

This is pretty grooovy

[HSwell]

Nice catch, hippie.

[MinstrelOfDoom]

THIS IS PURE ROCK!!!

[daginman]

Awesome!



[WhippJunior]

Beavis, that was cool! Huh huh! Huh Huh!

[iainaframe]

Pow, right in the kisser :-D

[waynepunkdude]

I just saw the title "assaulted by drummer" really? Didn't that dick just throw his guitar into the guys drum kit?

[waynepunkdude]

What a bunch of dicks.

[ncroson]

wow. i was wondering what happened to the cedar rapids show. last time i saw radio moscow was at a going away party 2 years ago. fame, fatigue, and excess i guess, the world outside of iowa must be a scary place. bummers all around.

[waynepunkdude]

@ncroson Fame? I've never heard of them.

[ncroson]

@waynepunkdude eh, maybe i should have said attention? tv commercials, licensed songs in movies, Europe tours, dan auerbach, and being paid to make vinyl records is big in my book, but i'm just some corn-fed midwest twerp. what do i know?

[WMA31780]

AHHHH, so this is why the last record sucked so fucking bad. Parker was getting sick of the help. Sick of the road. Sick of the drugs. Sick of tv eyed sluts. Next record should actually go somewhere....I mean, really: the whole record sounds like liquid acid circling the drain of Grigg's mind, feeding his ego with rancid inhibitions.

[DamageIncM]

lol okay...

[sirgerry]

And these people are??

[oclero]

Parker disapointed me

[dwimmerling]

Corn fed haters? Really? What do you have in your state? Lots of water? We paid to see them rock, and he spent half the show trashing the rest of his band. The only reason I feel we got our moneys worth was seeing him get his at the end of the show.

[candisek]

Seems like Iowa is a rough place to rock. Parker is apparently not a perfect man. But he sure has been a nice guy to me anytime I have seen him. I hope his new adventures in rock take him far away from corn fed haters.

[DustownTV]

sometimes, some people just need a high five...

in the FACE...with a...guitar!! XD

[iivan1966]

Could be a cool ad for Fender "The 37th advantage of a Strat: use it for self-defense then play it again!"

[terran236]

@iLoveAltNation would have been funny if the drummer ran out with the guitar.

[mmills131313]

Don't mess with a drummers kit... Just saying...

[DustownTV]

this GOT to be one of THE guitar solos, by a drummer, at a gig, ever!! XD

[TonyRedgrave1501]

I like his guitar style but he seems to be an idiot. but I will still listen to his music.

[panosgatto]

Sad.

[sonic872]

Guitar fights back!!

[handen]

Welp and now I have absolutely no reason to promote you guys on my radio show anymore. Looks like it's time to get a life.

[stevil77]

Inspired by GG Allin ??

[wysiwyg0691]

Notiice how quick the guitarist's father grabbed him to hold him back on the stage.You can't tell me the singer/guitarist's father didn't know his son was out of control. The father knew his son had just the night before thrown a beer can in the face of a woman he knew.The singer/guitarist tried to tell his victim thats what men do here in the US. The immature singer/guitarist needs treatment before he ends up in prison.Wake up and STOP PROTECTING his ASS! It could be your mother he attacks next

[yugang08]

It sure sucks to be griggs right now. The comments went from "one of the best in rock right now" to "fuck that pussy ass singer/guitarist, that bitch got what he deserved". Gonna be a longtime before he gets the positive critical acclaim again (if ever). Oh well, thats life. Sometimes fucked up shit happens. On a brightside, i look forward to hearing from blues pills in the future. Got a feeling they will cook up a killer ass heavy rock album:)

[soukupjosephdavid]

I like how this video is attempting to be propaganda in Parker's favor... what a joke!

[soukupjosephdavid]

I was in the front row of this show and am friends with Parker (Guitar), Zack (Bass) and Cory (Drums)... and obviously this was all Parkers fault as everyone was booing him and screaming "PARKER SUCKS!!!" when he was leaving the stage for the Emergency Room. So... if you ever want to know what not to do to your drummer... its basically to not chuck a guitar at his neck while he's still playing. P.s. - Punk/Rock forever!!!

[KINDOY2]

Parker got of lucky..Id of beat the little bitches ass....

[MrHoofs]

In reading that Radio Moscow "picked up right where it left off", simply is NOT TRUE. I own the venue they were to play the next night (Sunday). Not only did the band not show, they did not even bother to call until 30 minutes before the show was to start. Thanks to Ryan Phalen, we were able to get PROFESSIONAL musicians to show and play. Ryan played his heart out as well as special guest appearance by Craig Erickson and others. I have still not received any appologies. Mahoney's Irish Pub CR

[SexyBadMedicine]

@BluesPills Your are in the right, and we all obviously know it: I mean, look at this thread! Everyone is hating on what was intended to be a promo video for him. Hope Rolling Stone gets wind. Hated by the people! :-D

That scar left behind is rather bad ass though. Atta boy, Cory.

[windinthewillowz]

@TheCityofgood

[SexyBadMedicine]

We propose embargo against said "Griggs."

[thirdnamejane]

I probably would have done worse than throw my guitar at a drum set if my band backed out the day before a huge tour...

[BluesPills]

Cory and Zack quit months ago, they were being professional and considerate to finish the big Graveyard tour for Parker. He was a belligerent ass the night before and threw a beer can at a womans face, so they quit the tour. No one would tolerate actions like that.

[SexyBadMedicine]

@thirdnamejane Not unless you want a Roman-esque mob chasing you out the parking lot: especially with what he was pulling all night.

[stonej82]

@thirdnamejane yah good point parker is a pussy for doing it the way he did.

[TheCityofgood]

With all that said, parker is still a legit artist and makes the kind of rock music i enjoy so i wont abandon him completely just yet. I hope the new line-up kick ass cause zach & cory are not an easy act to follow. I hope the chemistry will be just as good as the former line up if not better when it comes to recording the music and performing on stage, and i damn sure better not see anymore fighting on stage! Keep it Professional!!

[TheCityofgood]

Wow. Im am shocked! SHOCKED! The conflict between them should have being kept off the stage and keep behind the scenes. This did not have to happen at all and quite frankly im appalled at how unprofessional these guys acted especially parker, and if what bluespills says is 100% then parker is an ass and will probably lose a bunch of fans over this video. Radio Moscow fans deserves better and should be better for them. He should also man up and try to make things right w/ zach & corry.

[junkmarketgirl]

@TheCityofgood Yeah Parker never even paid Cory and Zack for playing the night before. I'm just glad they went there separate ways, and hope it works out for all. Peace

[nomicons]

A fittingly shitty end to a shitty band.

[TheCityofgood]

@nomicons they are far from being a shitty band but yeah the ending of it pretty shitty

[yugang08]

Wow. Im extremely letdown by parker griggs. Hes come along way to earn his fan following w/ zach & corry and hes fucking it up by pulling this bullshit. He is a talented musician, dude is a true rocker and i have had high hopes for him, corry and zach to make it big in the business but this fuckery is unacceptable and it could really hurt his career in the long run. Im still a fan but if parker keeps these antics up then i cant stand by him. It really does disappoint me to see this shit smh

[drogueband]

Ive seen them play like 20 times and never once have I seen him through his guitar

[drogueband]

Man thats a shame. That the guitar is fine, I mean. Parker you are a piece of shit and you got what you had coming

[stonej82]

No publicity is bad publicity. Including a video showing your lead singer getting bitch slapped like a little bitch and doing nothing about it. LOL LOL LOL

[somewhere646]

I think you should post the uncut version from Saturdays second set. Let people hear all the shit parker was saying about the bassist and drummer before he threw the guitar at the drummer. Can tell your friends with Parker. Because everyone else who was there thought Parker was the ass.

[dwimmerling]

He's just pissed the drummer had better aim. He was being a royal prick before this bit. I won't go see radio moscow again. I will make fun of this asshole every chance I get. 

[wysiwyg0691]

@dwimmerling Too bad they didn't show the whole video of this song. Parker is just a jealous immature unprofessional spoiled BRAT.

[gglaw42]

This reminds me of the intraband brawls on stage and off with Megadeth back in 1986....I saw a hell of an o stage brawl with those guys once. IAt is not only bad karma, it is unprofessional, save that soap opera drama for behind the scenes at the very least, as respect for yourselves and your fans. Then again, shit happen when you reach your boiling point1!!

[EmmaAtetheLion]

gotta love zacks reaction...no reaction..just kinda looks...pauses..takes his bass off and walks off stage...like hes not surprised it happened at all haha...to bad it had to go down that way

[added23]

@BluesPills he did display in slow-mo parker whipping the guitar at cory. if parker really did all that shit, he's a dick. but i dont know why the band would continue to play with him after he disses them on stage. either way i still love radio moscow and your band is pretty sweet too

[rjts1989]

I love the beer can flying over his head as he gets hit with the guitar. Woulda been epic if it hit him too.

[stonej82]

best part is at 46 seconds when lead singer acts like he is going to throw his guitar back but is too big a pussy to do it. lol yah your a real rock star!! lol was the big star scared he was going to get in twouble?

[slack3000]

@stonej82 thats the guitarists dad and sister rushing up to stop him

[stonej82]

@slack3000 Yah he didnt need to be stopped. You can tell by the body language and by how he stands there and doesnt actually need to be held back he is a pussy.

[stonej82]

Why make a promo video showing the lead singer being a total dick and throwing his guitar at someone? We already have enough bands who think they are better than they are....Usually its fun to like a band that doesn't have a spoiled little bitch as a lead singer.

[jdmcco]

singer got what he asked for

[sredcord]

@jdmcco yeah right....



[666liquidswords]

I've seen a guitar/vocalist laying on the ground playing and then a drumset got flipped and landed on his forehead. This ain't shit.

[gentlytoastedalmonds]

Oh man a beer that must have left a decent mark...thats funny she looked fine on saturday...You must be confused with your metric conversions...a 24oz can weighs a 1.5lbs but only when full...parkers guitar 14lbs all the time and being almost 4ft long dont think much aim was needed...

[mattdake]

@gentlytoastedalmonds Right, because throwing anything at a woman's face is fine. As long as it meets the weight requirements, it's perfectly fine to assault a woman. Go fuck yourself, moron.

[gentlytoastedalmonds]

@mattdake have you never heard of the rule of thumb?

[mattdake]

@gentlytoastedalmonds I have, but have absolutely no idea how it applies here. Please, enlighten me...and try not to embarrass yourself.

[andrewneccirva]

I love that this video was clearly posted to evoke sympathy for the guitar player, but nobody is fooled. It's a dick move to end your set by throwing your instrument at another band member, and when the situation is as volatile as it clearly already was, you're taking a big chance on things escalating. Which they did. But hey, if you don't start any shit, there won't be any shit. Should be a lesson to this guy, but I'm guessing it won't be.

[LeeRatbag]

That guitarist is clearly an utter cunt, and he's lucky to have got away with 14 stitches. If that had been me behind that kit, I'd have wrapped the fucking guitar round his neck. As it was - good shot drum dude!!

[CYFAWS]

Sad to see a band I genuinely like and appreciate acting this way on stage. Not very professional either, to say the least..

[testerz12345678]

this was sent to my mailbox to hype the band. you call this blood? that bitch just needs to learn how to catch.

[bigbobross]

@testerz12345678 HAHAHAHA!!! Fuckin amazing comment!

[IcaruisLastDance]

Karma...

[MrPsy0pus]

I don't like.

:$

[ShamanBlues113]

Too much bad Karma...

[giorussodrum]

yes!

[amyihle]

Really classy, Parker.

[oclero]

O_O

[electronicka]

pretty bad-ass...see you in nyc!
