What the ****?

Death Metal Band Decapitated Arrested on Kidnapping Charges - Rolling Stone

I even own one of their albums, Organic Hallucinosis, which is pretty fecking sweet, so that was a weird headline to see.

No idea. Sounds like it's too early to know any details.

It's usually transporting minors across state lines that gets bands arrested for kidnapping.

Also should I move this discussion to the right thread?

Son of a bitch. Yes.

And I don't think it was a state lines thing. Sounds like it might be a groupie situation gone wrong.

^ That's sad news, Man L M.

I used to take those same District Line trains through Parsons Green on a daily basis. It's a quiet, attractive corner of London as I hope these pics illustrate:-





At Parsons Green The Underground is overground. There's a small piece of London common and various Victorian pubs which I used to drink in occassionally. The roads are relatively quiet and the hundred-year-old houses are carefully preserved. In short, Parsons Green is a pleasing collection of all the elements that make London a city that is still attractive.

At least there appear to be no fatalities, which is certainly something, and most of the injuries seem to be relatively minor ("due to flash burn") - guy did not know what he was doing, made an arse of it so it seems. Luckily.

Why 'Juggalos' are marching on DC | TheHill

On one level, yeah, this is funny. On another level, it is pretty fucked up that Juggalos are being labeled as a gang. Hopefully Batlord is on his way to D.C. to stand with the clowns.
