I understand you're an ardent (pun) fan of Danzig, so you're bound to get defensive when someone disparages his records, but that's the way the world goes. Metal fans often seem to listen to only Metal, which they describe as 'awesome' and 'superior'; any other view implies a 'shitty taste in music'. Fine. If you think Nirvana (for instance) made shitty records, I'm not about to agree; you're not going to agree that Danzig makes lousy records. One view with which I think you might reluctantly agree is this - no trained Martial Artist is going to shove a huge bouncer, swear at him, pose a la 'tough guy', then get decked with a single punch, in front of millions of viewers. Sorry, but it is very difficult to admire a man who did those things, even five years ago. (And those lyrics! Unintentionally hilarious!) EdArson – In fact, I was trying to be neutral.

Those squiggly little red lines that appear under words from time to time (probably ALL the time for you), they mean that you spelled something wrong. So ya know, keep that little tid-bit of knowledge and use it. Cowboy Joe: You think Danzig's music is "lousy"? Then you must have shitty taste in music. You think he "sounds less manly than Elvis"? At least Danzig writes his own songs, as opposed to Elvis, who ripped off a shit-load of African-American musicians, and barely wrote any of his own music. And I guarantee Danzig won't die on the shitter. By the by, that Def Leppard incident was a rumor, it didn't happen. DANZIGSBIGGESTFAN:

Yes, other rock stars have been punched, and sometimes beaten badly, but not to the detriment of their image. Kurt Cobain got punched on video too, but Nirvana fans didn't go off him, because he didn't affect a 'hard man' persona. Danzig, though, has made appearing 'tough' his mission statement. I think his music is lousy - he sounds nowhere near as manly as Elvis, for starters - but his stance is even worse. The first time I ever heard of him was because he got punched by a guy from Def Leppard; the next was when he got punched by this large fellow! There must be a reason for these incidents. Being arrogant, and pushing your weight around as if you own the joint, are going to guarantee a smackdown quite quickly! And you say he's only 5'3" - so why is he fool enough to shove a guy of 6'+?!

Your spelling and grammar are abso-fucking-lutely atrocious. And Glenn is NOT going to get depressed and kill himself over people talking shit on the internet. I guarantee he couldn't give a flying fuck what any of us have to say about something that happened 5 years ago. Secondly; he wasn't knocked OUT, he was knocked DOWN. And let me tell you people; a 50 year old (at the time), 5'3" man who just finished rocking out for over an hour getting knocked down by a 300+ LB, 6 ft+ motherfucker? That's not really impressive, a surprise, or something to brag about. The North Side Kings are a typical, boring, shitty hardcore band. Aside from that punch, they've done nothing note-worthy. And even that punch is nothing to flaunt, like I already said. Rollins would've gone down from that punch, too. Most people would have. There's more to that video where Glenn gets right back up, but of course; no one wants you to see that part. Yeah Danzig has a big mouth, so fuckin' what? The writer of this article has a pretty big mouth too, goin' off and writing shit like this. If he got knocked out by a 7 ft tall, 500 pound gorilla, would that be impressive? No. Totally justified though, given this article along with the recent Chuck Biscuits hoax, and the fact that this guy decided to try in ANY way to defend anything the new "Misfits" have done.

People get in fights all the time and get knocked out. Yeah Danzig got knocked out but who really cares? Its not a big deal. If you get in fights, you're eventually gonna get your ass handed to you. Its the people who dont fight who seem to not know this .......but still they watch the violence like its entertainment. They are not comdemning the violence, they are condemning the man and laughing at him. That is, of course, until its their ass who is getting hit.

All these years later and people are STILL TALKING ABOUT how Danzig got punched out. It seems to me he'll never live this down, and the main reason for that is because he put so much emphasis on his demonic, over the top tough guy image. If the same thing had happened to say Slash for instance, it wouldn't have been that big a deal. But since it's Danzig...well, here we all are still discussing it. Incredible.
