"The band that shall not be named"

I'm glad he's o.k...and it could have very well been some kind of a bug.
When I seen their show last weekend he seemed pretty sober to me.

Well, I'm happy I didnt buy tickets to that show.
I wouldve been PISSED, cause I'm not a huge Flyleaf fan.

I hope that whatever happened to Shaun wasnt something drug related...
...cause it'll just get worse and then ANOTHER good band would end because of drugs.

guys guys....

don't jump to conclusions...

maybe he did have a bug... maybe he was feeling really sick...

that's horrible to say about the drugs...

just because he f*ck up in his life before doesn't mean he's a f**k up for life...

give him some credit...

he went to detox

he's been drug free ever since.

it's dissapointing to read what you guys said

i've said it in the past. but i was also angry that i paid to see "The band that shall not be named" and only "The band that shall not be named"...

so everything i said about the drugs... i said because i was angry. and i'm sorry...

but shaun has kicked his addiction..
please aknowlage that

Like I said, I really don't know, so I really can't say. Just, considering his track record, I'm not sure I buy the "24 hour bug" bit. Many people, famous or not, leave rehab and go right back into their old habits. Either way, I'm glad he is okay.

They were talking about it on the radio today, and nothing was mentioned about the 24 hour bug. It was "A representitive from "The band that shall not be named" said that it was because of low blood sugar and defydration from not eating before the show". And then the DJ added her "riiiiiight".

It just makes me suspicious that one source says it was a bug, and another says low blood sugar...? :-/

I just hope whatever it was, he's alright.

Yeah you would hope hes staying clean cause this story is too fishy and if not i hope he gets clean soon before something bad happens

I went to his show a while back, he performed with Three Days Grace, he didnt seem to act unusual when performing but I didnt stay after, My friend also got backstage passes and said nothing about the way he acted, So maybe its all a lie or w/e but you never know...

Don't do drugs...give HUGS!!! Am I right???

I......second.....or third? Whatever!

Anyways....I agree about the "Hugs not drugs"!!!!

^^ nice

I'm just glad he's ok. He's a big boy, he knows right from wrong. Everyone is going to jump to conclusions about what happened and it sucks that the majority of people automatically associate this with drugs....but I guess thats the life of a rock star eh?

All I know is that the times that I have seen "The band that shall not be named", nothing appeared to be off about them. When I met the boys and Shaun, they could't have been any more gracious.

Anywho... I'm curious to see what the reviews are like for tonights show. Hopefully everything goes off without a hitch.

Mark: that song is amazing... the acoustic is even better. My fave would have to be Breakdown...you can just feel the emotion in that song.

Becky: go get the album. You won't be dissapointed.

^^^ Oh that's awesome.

Thanks!

Unread postby **Sheila** » 13 May 2008 20:24

no problem

I think I actually prefer the acoustic versions for most of their songs more than the plugged in.

If you want to see some more amazing acoustic stuff...go to youtube and type in "The band that shall not be named" or shaun in south africa. You should get a few vids from the acoustic solo shows he did last december. I still get goose bumps listening to those.

edit: actually, just go to this guys youtube page...he has awesome videos
