A lot now, we play these shows in front of a lot of people, and I see a lot of gross, disgusting high-school jocks in the audience. But what we do is for all the beautiful faggots, and the rest of you can all eat a big bowl of wet dicks… You think this many people get together and they’re all good people? They’re all shitheads… I may be stepping out of bounds, but all the heterosexuals in the audience, all the straights, can just turn around and face the other way.” He waited. “If you don’t turn around, I’ll accept that you’re homos, just like all of us up on the stage… Right now, we play and you all sing and cheer, but after this show, you’ll go back to your high schools and pick on the faggots and the kids in the chess club. Fuck you, all of you guys. Who do you think we were? When I went to shows, it was just faggots… I’m glad you took the time out of your day that you usually would’ve spent flat-ironing your hair, but before this band, there was a band called Iggy & the Stooges”—the audience cheered—”and you can cheer all you want, but you don’t know a fucking thing… Fuck you.” —Spencer Moody of the Murder City Devils.

I miss them.
Wow he really knows his audience but then again, NOTHING is cooler than berating the very people who are interested in your work.
I like MCD but man, he kinda sounds like a pretentious dick. I bet he doesn’t even like Van Halen.
Yeah, I think he probably is sort of a prick, but I think he recognized the same thing I did at the last MCD show, that the crowd they’ve been playing to since their reunion show has been comprised of a lot of assholes. I can attest, the last MCD show I went to there was definitely some tension there.
PS. I don’t really like Van Halen.
