"I'm sure many of you have seen the video of me getting pegged on stage while I was on Metallica tour filling in for Mark from Lamb of God. Although 95% of the comments were really supportive, I just wanted to clarify a few things about the incident.

"First off, it was a beer, not a water. A big ol' tall boy plastic cup of beer, and whoever threw it must have been a quarterback because it was full and hit me square in the eye at full steam. It felt like I got sucker punched. I had a mark by my cheek bone and it was swollen all night. I surprised I didn't have a black eye. The way it hit me is probably the reason why I reacted the way I did. I'm no tough guy, but I wasn't really thinking. I just reacted. I really don't know what I would've done if anyone would've have owned up to throwing it, but I have no clue if I would've hit the person. I can say that I'm not violent at all, and don't think violence is a productive way to solve problems. - more on this story
