  • This is just a way for the cops to make money off of Panic fans. The entire city where Panic is playing makes a fortune when they come to town. Panic fans are trying to fix the economy by traveling and spending money out of town. I work my ass off everyday to save money to go to shows. (Work to Panic) =)

  • I'm assuming your a Metallica fan? Take off your graphic T and come see Panic. You will never be a hardass loser again.

  • Not one Athens Police Officer in that video...

  • Widespread Panic ruins lives

  • @drscrad

    I field tested the meth and sent it to the crime lab and it tested positive for meth. Maybe the video didn't capture the color well.

    Not the reason i hate America, but definitely the reason I hate most cops throughout the South through the Bible-belt, and especially where I live, which I consider to be the belt-buckle of the Bible-belt. Where I live is in the tri-metro area right besides Hinds County (Jackson, MS) in a county called Rankin aka Stankin' Rankin.. We have about 40,000 people in my town with 17 cops on each 8 shift, 63 UC cars, and my town's police station has a DEA branch inside of it. :-/

    Agreed.. I live about 90-100 miles west of Pelham in Jackson, MS. I saw WSP at Oak Mountain two or three times when Houser was still gracing us with his presence, and the only place near Pelham or B'ham that I can compare cops to being as bad or gung-ho is in Jackson and/or Orange Beach at the Wharf, or as I like to call it, Satan's Asshole.

    I disagree with you, my man. Yes, the type of improv music has been done before, however, the southern whiskey blues incorporated with jam band mentality and ways of writing music are way different than the Dead or ABB. Jerry was a pioneer in the aspect that he basically started a movement which is still going on today.. However, whenever it comes to the style that Spread has, do not ever say Houser and Co. is just another Athens band. R.E.M. is, but I disagree about WSP.
