Straightaway I saw red, pulled my guitar off, held it by the neck, and swung it at the boot boy, all in one movement. Trouble was, I was pissed. I don’t think I even connected. Instead what happened was the weight of the bass pulled me offstage and into the audience where the same kid and his mates descended on me. Swarmed all over, like those little dinosaurs in Jurassic Park, and held me down. Then the kicks started landing. I thought, This is it. I’m going to die.
