I've posted here about Sunshine Flipside before. This is Vile's review of their last show at CBGBs. Lonnie, the frontman, had dozens of fire crackers taped to his guitar which he set off during their final song causing massive explosions to rage across the stage Great White style.. Needless to say, Lonnie got his ass kicked out of the place by the bouncers after they doused him with water.. Read the full gig review. ] "Oh, you are sooo out of here, asshole!" The hippie ] looking soundman screamed as he violently flung the guitar at ] Rutledge, who stood up, held out one hand, and caught the ] instrument in one hand, without even paying attention to it. ] Upon catching the guitar (and making that soundman piss his ] baggy jeans), Lonnie smashed the burned, wet axe against the ] stage and screamed right at the man who assaulted him: ] "How do you like THAT shit, motherfucker?" ] "Where are you from? Massachusetts?" The soundman ] screamed cryptically before Lonnie threw the guitar down on ] the stage and booked through CB's bar and out the door, a run ] that was filled with numerous kicks and punches from the ] fatassed bouncers. He didn't care. And this is the best part: ] When asked by a bouncer "Why?" ] "This is CBGB's and that was punk rock! And if you don't ] think so, then Fuck you!" He screamed at the angry mob as he ] ran like hell away, into the night, never to be seen at CBGB's ] again. Go Lonnie! ] God bless you, Sunshine Flipside! You never let us down! I have a feeling this is not the last of Sunshine Flipside. Was anyone video taping the show? I heard there was a camera floating around, hopefully they will release the footage soon!
