Metallica Fans in India Started a Riot . . . When a Show Was Canceled at the Last Minute Over Security Concerns

METALLICA was supposed to play their first gig ever in India on Friday, but it was canceled at the last minute due to “security concerns.”  Specifically, a barrier in front of the stage collapsed, and couldn’t be repaired.

 Around 25,000 fans were at the venue, but the band never took the stage.

 The fans were NOT pleased . . . and “dozens” of them raided the stage and vandalized equipment.  CHAOS ensued.  The rioters trashed instruments and the sound system, and they threw bottles at the digital display screens.

 Metallica initially planned on rescheduling the show for the next night, Saturday . . . but the concert organizers weren’t able to get a permit in time.

 Metallica issued this statement:  Quote, “We [were] very excited and ready to play our first show ever in India . . .

 ”However, we were notified that there was a serious question as to whether the show could proceed with regard to the safety of the concert audience.  Our first and foremost concern is always for the safety of you, the fans.”

 Metallica did finally give up their Indian virginity yesterday, at a separate, previously scheduled gig in a different city.  (–That one happened in Bangalore.  Friday’s show was supposed to happen in Gurgaon.)

 Four people from the promotion company have been arrested for fraud, cheating people and breach of trust.  They also oversold the venue and didn’t tell fans about the cancellation in a timely manner.

Check Out Gary Busey in a Halloween Ad for a Kia Dealership in Houston

For the past few months, GARY BUSEY has been doing ads for car dealerships in Pittsburgh and Houston.  And they’re all awesomely bad.

–The newest one is a Halloween ad for a Kia dealership, where Busey makes a bad joke about witches and brooms, says the cars are “scared priceless” TWICE, then just goes nuts.

An unaired “Saturday Night Live” sketch on STEVE JOBS’ death has surfaced online. It was supposed to air on the October 15th episode . . . but it didn’t make the cut, for whatever reason. Probably because it’s not all that funny, but nonetheless amusing.

–The skit mocks companies like Facebook and Netflix . . . by having their CEOs compare how awesome Steve Jobs is, to how poorly they run their companies. Obviously, the “SNL” cast is impersonating those CEOs.

Remember the guy in “Police Academy” who did all the crazy sound effects with his voice?  Well, his name is MICHAEL WINSLOW and he’s still around.  And he’s still AWESOME.
–He was on a talk show in Norway the other day, and did a pretty amazing version of “Whole Lotta Love” by Led Zeppelin.  A guy on acoustic guitar played along.  But Winslow did all the singing . . . and it was spot on.
–But that wasn’t even the best part.  He also added the distortion, and did a crazy guitar solo.
