Words just in that the tonights Sick Of It All show at Webster Hall has been canceled after former Cro Mags bassist Harley Flannegan stabbed a fellow concert goer.. Say what?
CBGB's fest is off to a punk rock start that's for sure.
Stole this from Brooklyn Boogie- they had the eyewitness and I got the cut and paste
"Harley Flannegan, founding member of the Cro-Mags stumbled into the VIP lounge with a knife. Security mobilized in a hot minute and beat the shit out of him. It took no less than six beefy dudes to control the madness. Blood was everywhere, and bone protruded from his shin.
Cops quickly appeared and took him away in cuffs. Not before he had already stabbed some dude in the chest (said victim left the scene with a bandage over the wound). Because of the violence the rest of the show was canceled. The remaining bands promised to reschedule the show. To be fair, Webster Hall security contained the situation professionally. Lots of drunken, pissed off hardcore fans were on edge after the cops shut down the show, but the scene was cleared without further incident."
More details to follow.. I'm sure. See, this is why we cant have nice things.
