Korn Hospitalized After Attack? - Top Story of 07

[originally published 10/19/07](antiMusic) Korn has reportedly fired the opening band on their "Bi#%h! We Have A Problem" tour after a member of the band (Droid) laid out Korn guitarist James "Munky" Shaffer. To make matters worse for Droid, is the fact that they are signed to Munky's vanity label. There are also contradictory reports that the beat down led to Munky being hospitalized.

Blabbermouth says that "contrary to published reports, Munky required no stitches for the injuries sustained in the altercation and he is taking 'total responsibility for the fight,' which was described as 'a dumb, drunken stupid moment' by a source close to KORN."

Little Rock radio station The Edge has a different take on what went down in their "PuNk the MuNk(y)!" story: So last night at the Edge's Monster Ball, a lot of people were asking me why DROID, the opening band, didn't play. I chose to hold my silence until this morning. DROID is on Munky's record label, Emotional Syphon Recordings. Well, at first I was told DROID wouldn't be playing simply because "they got in trouble." Well, I later found out through reliable sources that Munky was at a local hospital getting stitches. THEN, I found out members or simply a member of DROID was the one who put Munky in the hospital.

Well, I talked about this on the air this morning, and to validate my claims, a listener who chose to remain anonymous, emailed me a picture of Munky on the ground, knocked out, after drinking heavily, pissing off whomever it was in DROID, causing a "scuffle" to take place. Wanna see - the proof?
