MONSTER MAGNET Bassist Arrested After Clocking Audience Member In Head
02 Oct 2004
According to the Rock N Roll Experience web site, MONSTER MAGNET bassist Jim Baglino was arrested following the band's September 30, 2004 concert in Lancaster, PA after accidentally injuring an audience member with his instrument. Baglino
told the web site, "We had a really crazy show and there was no
barricade and I swung my bass and hit a guy in the head and the next
thing I knew he was being carried out and was bleeding, and after the
show I was arrested and I sat in a cell for 15 hours." Added Rock N Roll Experience webmaster Bob Suehs,
"I'm not quite sure what happened in terms of a settlement, but I do
know that the entire band was in New York and that their label reps
flew from California to New York to make settlement and get this ordeal
over with...the band actually did not get to the venue until like 15
minutes or so before show time...Their drummer Bob and Jim
both summed it up saying that this entire tour had been really crazy
and that they look forward to their last show for this leg of the tour
on Oct. 2 in Virginia so they can take a brief break before the next
leg of the tour starts. As far as the charges go, it's also not clear
if the charges were dropped, or what charges he was arrested on."
