What a jackass. And it took him five tries to break the neck of his Melody Maker? Bieber could probably kick his ass too. Billie Jo needs to retire and become a spokesman for eyeliner and eye shadow, that's what he does best.

No idea whether they ran too long or were unfairly told to end it too soon, but he could have handled it gracefully instead of being a horse's ass. Anytime you try to excuse yourself by telling everyone how many years you've been around, it's a pretty good bet you've jumped the shark.

Did you notice that as soon as he started trying to break his Melody Maker, Dirnt suddenly jumped in and started with his bass? Monkey see, monkey do (no offense to monkeys intended).

Dirnt probably heard about the G-3 reissue, realized what he was playing and decided to end his Fender endorsement then and there.

Why didn't they just continue playing and wait until the power is turned off? Then smash things. These young people ...

Yes, would've been the proper way to handle the situation.
