The oddest thing about this story is that the irsh club is called the Paddy Wagon.

Not sure of that's absaloutly hilarious, or really really sad.

How come Pro-Pain only does like one tour every couple yrs to limited cities in the US, but tour all over Europe?

M. Pand. - That's the absolute definition of irony.

Doesn't surprise me that Meskil was in a fight. Ever listen to his music?
The guy was probably defending his honor/pride to some degree. Someone offended him - he punched their face in.

Could you seriously ask for better justice?

No, of course not. But the penal system teaches people to behave through a series of actions and codes rather than reactions to visceral stimuli.

Punching someone in the face isn't ironic. I hope he beat the bastard good and made the charge worth it. Make War not Love , old school Pro-Pain.
