"That's right...Tom Drummond DOESN'T give a f*ck!" threatened the Better Than
Ezra bassist
after getting heckled from an obnoxious fan. During the breakdown of KONO, the
fan yelled
"You PLAY bass like a GIRRRRRRL!" and threw a pair of ladies panties onto the
stage.
Lead singer/songwriter Kevin Griffin seized the opportunity to crouch down at
the fallen undies
and place them atop his head. Griffin then pranced back to his microphone with
his
new "hat," dramatically pointed at Drummond and declared in a high-pitched
voice,
"Tom Drummond doesn't give a F*CK...if he plays like a GIRRRRLLL!"
The abhorrent fan was escorted out within minutes." (LSUHarvey)

One of Kevin's many expressive facial movements. (Beagle1)
"What the hell did I just sit in?" (Andy)
"Hmmmph! That's some f*cking lagniappe right there, my brother!" noted Griffin,
after a young man in the crowd stopped the show. It was reported that the
mid-twenties fan stood on top of the back bar as he ripped off his t-shirt
to reveal a painted bare chest. The lead singer finally caught a glimpse of the
human billboard that read 'I slut for KG!' No news as to when or if the KG
fancied
the young man as well." (LSUHarvey)
"Wha? Hair gel? Um - wait, NO!" (Shari)
