The Jamey Jasta (Hatebreed) vs. Seth Putnam Incident...

ALRIGHT!! 👋🤣
Ok so, fresh off recent news announced by Hatebreed and former MTV Headbanger's Ball host, Jamey Jasta that he'll issue his 2nd solo album this May, "And Jasta For All..." featuring guests Scott Ian (Anthrax), Steve "Zetro" Souza (Exodus), Chuck Billy (Testament) and Phil Demmel (Vio-lence, Machine Head), I recall the incident that took place between he & AC's Seth Putnam at the 2nd edition of the New England Metal & Hardcore Fest in early February 2000 at the Palladium in Worcester, MA.
Given that this happened before widespread use of social media and discussion boards, the story truly hasn't been told much except for minor accounts given by Jamey and a... well, quite "flawed" version by Seth 🤣🤣🤣
I, however, feel qualified to tell EXACTLY what happened given that I was not only an eye witness but also someone caught up in it.
And in this video, I do exactly that ☝️🤣🤣
ULTIMATELY- and not even just "in retrospect," this is an hilarious story that I feel pays tribute to late Seth's legacy.
For those unfamiliar with New England's "metalfest," it was a multi-day event beginning in 1999 that's featured throughout its years, Morbid Angel, Napalm Death, GWAR, Manowar, Overkill, Madball, Misfits, Six Feet Under, Shadows Fall, Sworn Enemy, Cannibal Corpse, Hate Eternal, Vision of Disorder, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Internal Bleeding, Killswitch Engage, Dimmu Borgir, Nile, Lamb of God, The Haunted, Obituary, Meshuggah, Opeth, Skinless, Exhumed, Blood Has Been Shed, In Flames, Overcast, Soilwork, Arch Enemy, Disgorge, Deeds of Flesh, Pig Destroyer, Deceased, Cannae, Vital Remains, Suffocation, Incantation, Mastodon, Misery Index, Deicide, Behemoth, Kataklysm, Lacuna Coil, Bongzilla, The Acacia Strain, Superjoint Ritual, Converge, Cephalic Carnage, Agoraphobic Nosebleed, Children of Bodom, The Black Dahlia Murder, Cattle Decapitation, Trivium, Yakuza, Chimaira, Necrophagist, Megadeth, High on Fire, Municipal Waste, Disfear, Ministry, Tyr, Impending Doom, Tony Danza Tap Dance Extravaganza, Merauder, Cro Mags, Earth Crisis, Amon Amarth, Biohazard, Blood For Blood, Fleshgod Apocalypse, Power Trip, Sick of it All, D.R.I., Suicidal Tendencies, 1349, H20, Nailbomb and many, many others...
I also describe a particularly memorable Hatebreed show in Springfield, Massachusetts I once attended in early 2003 with ‪@NoJumper‬'s ‪@adam22forever‬ in which the show, performed under codename "A Call For Blood" ended quickly after a giant brawl began that couldn't be contained.
So yea man, there ya go 😭😭
💀🤮🤘
