Rock Band Members Have Huge Fight After Myrtle Beach Concert
For the record, it’s never a good thing when you’re a rock band and people after your concert are talking less about your music than the huge fight you had amongst yourselves. The band in question here is “Crazy Town.” If there ever was a poster child for “one hit wonder,” it’s this group. Remember this one?
Well, Crazy Town was down at Myrtle Beach for a show at The Boathouse Bar & Grill on April 23. According to The Sun News, the band’s front man and founding member, Shane Binzer (who performs as “Shifty Shellshock”), apparently was a no-show until the very end of the gig. Band co-founder and lead vocalist Bobby Reeves was, understandably less than enthused by this. Words were exchanged on and off stage. Some of these words are not shall we say, safe for church? And, it was on.
The video of the actual brawl is on YouTube, but it’s age restricted so I’ll just post the link here. It’s pretty epic as brawls go. The best part is this picture that Reeves posted to his social media accounts. Sporting the dark glasses to cover the beatdown, he claims the brouhaha is already in the rear view mirror.
Reeves later took to Instagram sporting sunglasses to cover a black eye. He said this Crazy Town altercation has already been forgotten. “Me and Shifty got in a little scuffle, but it’s all good, we’re brothers,” Reeves said in a brief video. “Love y’all. Love you, Shifty, too.” Wow, gotta love the world of rock n roll, right?

Charlotte's Symphony Park Hosts A Relaunched Popular Concert Series
When we first came to Charlotte in 2006, The EpiCentre was the place to be after work. For years, on Thursday nights, “Alive After 5” was a thing and the place to be seen. Great weather and live music proved to be an unbeatable and socially intoxicating combination. Well, with the decline of the EpiCentre and safety concerns in the uptown/downtown area, this annual rite of spring, ended. However, like all great ideas, all that was needed was a little re-branding. (Drum roll, please) Get ready for “SouthPark After 5.”
