Another Gig, Another Riot
Jewissville. DownTyme, the band known to incite riotous behavior amongst old people, does it again to a crowd of rednecks.
While playing at the Jewissville Liquor store and Dance Hall, the band DownTyme finished up their last song when a riot broke out.
The lead singer had asked the bartender, Carmen, if this was a barfightin' tavern earlier. She replied that it was "a real nice n' quiet place". And so it was, as it was reported, during most of the songs the only applause came from the significant others of the band members.
"I thought we were playing golf for awhile there." said bassist Mark Nowicki.
The bartender went on to explain, "We here in Jewissville wuz all raised Lut'ern, Missouri Synod, mind yuh, and we ain't allowed to clap in church, so we don't clap in here neither!"
A few moments after the last song of the night, there was a flash of NASCAR jackets and Bobcat baseball caps, and the row was on. The lead singer and his girlfriend, both former corrections officers of Moon Valley county, were there on the scene ready to dish out some beat downs of what looked like the lovefest of two men.
After the melee, it was found that the two men were arguing about who's pick up truck was "jacked up" the most, and then the first fist was thrown when they argued over whose wife had bigger hair.
It seems that hate and discontent follow Down Tyme where ever they play. Be it the "Blue Hair Massacre of Citizen's Park" or the "Bartender Beat Down of Ormsberry". Some fan's of the band come just for the barfights.
