I skipped seeing them on this tour. His 15 year old cringy try and be edgy sense of humor is played out. I’ve seen this guy chew out enough people in his band and employees of the venues he plays. It’s not what I go to shows to see.
I haven’t really thought much about BJM in a long time until all these onstage fights started showing up in my feed and I was like “Oh right there’s a guy in this band who *only* plays tambourine and for some reason the main guy in the band fights with him *all the time.*”
I'm actually the opposite. It doesn't seem all that horrible. He was kicking that monitor all night. He was clearly unhappy with it. Did he act out unnecessarily... yes. But the worst of the comments seem to be directed to the crowd when they got upset with his reaction to the soundperson. He just wanted to finish his show. I was kinda shocked last night, but with this angle I'm not as bothered about how things ended
Agreed. I will say this though, they schooled the sound engineers after this for a while. They were not doing a great job. I'm guessing they weren't traveling with their own engineer.
They chose not to bring their own engineer. They hired local students that work at the club. And Anton told us that fact with pride, but apparently it was enough justification to treat them like dog shit. The truth is they’re cheap. They’d prefer their own engineer but don’t want to pay for it. The sound was great. The band was just unhappy with their monitor mixes onstage. There’s a better way to deal with it that verbally assaulting everyone. I didn’t ask for a refund because it sounded bad. I asked for a refund because Anton acted like spoiled twat.
@@michellehunter9625that’s more embarrassing. Anybody who berates sound people like a drill sargeant are on the same level as people who complain about what’s missing in their food at McDonald’s. And I don’t mean going back to get a missing fry… I mean berating and talking down to them.
@A.Vagrant people like them make me sick. Only good smart people like you and me get it, but I'm more personally effected by it because I'm more smarter and better than you.
Saw them in Perth, Western Australia a few days ago (2023-11-13 - Monday eve). Was a weird experience. They nailed everything they played. However, there was so much aggression directed at the audience that was in the front row in front of him! I didn't even think it was Anton that was singing - I couldn't see him (big hat and low stage lights) but the accent was like British Isles - didn't sound like him at all (from the interviews I've seen). But it must have either been him or a savant understudy! Anyway they really did nail every song - was really something. I don't think anyone enjoyed the aggression - but the crowd genuinely loved them...
Yikes. I was going to see them in Austin this weekend but not anymore. I’d rather spend my “Dunkin’ Donuts” money to see artists who aren’t total dickheads. Thought he grew out of this shit, but he must have just been on good behavior last time I saw them.
My friend was at their show in Austin. She left after he stopped one of the first songs 15 seconds in and called the crowd fuck nuts. She said the Dandy Warhols were fantastic though.
Just saw them play a two hour long set in Houston, about half of it was Anton banter, the other half was a great performance. I expected it to be messy and drunk, but luckily I still got a great show out of it too.
Next time Anton does something like that the rest of them should have a Serena-Maneesh/Asteroid 4/Fat White Family/Imajinary Friends/Whatever other bands those guys played in mash up ready to go.
@@fcmhockeyvideos Oh, how cool. And also the Dead Skeletons. That makes 3 bands I like. And also related to Singapore Sling. Blows my mind that I don't research more of who's who in these bands. BTW, I was talking with Ricky Maymi in back after the show and didn't know who he was until I looked him. I did know he was part of BJM but not anything about him. He just said his name was Ricky at the end of our conversation.
Seriously. Me too. Unfortunately, I stayed to the bitter end and watched the shit show unfold. I emailed for a refund. I’d like to suggest that you please do the same so the band is held accountable.
@@synthpizza How do you suggest they are "held accountable"? For what, the show? or his comment? You All Know He's Known for being an Asshole right? There's even a whole movie about his behavior.
Not quite. They left stage, the house music and lights came on, half the band came back and played drones until 11:05 on the dot. They were making sure that they finished the set to earn their paycheck. Anton’s a bitch.

@@theallseeingarmpit5519 I think the whole audience would be fine with it there. For some reason the okies just need their performers to shuck and jive.
The Halloween show in New Orleans was great in spite of Anton being kind of dickish. Nothing like this or Melbourne though. I think that some people come to these shows expecting something like this because they saw some movie a long time ago, and egg them on. Didn't he quit drinking for some time? Maybe if he sees some of this video of himself he'll take another stab at sobriety (no pun intended).
I wanted to go see this show but the North American tour of the BJM sounded very sus to me, and I don't know how many dates they played before this show but yeah I knew there was gonna be drama.
Oh, yeah. It was so awesome watching them attempt to get their shit together for 3 minutes between each song. We’re talking easy 3 chord songs with nothing but cowboy chords. Their incompetence is on another level. 🤦♂️
i don't know how much music anyone has heard from him tbh, considering he's spent like 85% of his career being angry at everyone around him for no reason and throwing tantrums like a petulant 7 year old who didn't get his ice cream
When you are provoked, you have two choices: Ignore it or take the bait. If you take the bait, that’s on you for not being able to control the way you respond to a situation. Otherwise you are a child screaming, “Well they started it!”
not for nothing, but the jokers in the audience hooting and hollering while this is going on only egged on Anton's anger. A takes his shows very seriously, and laughing at him and yelling like it's the funniest thing in the world while he's being deadly serious is only going to provoke him. Take up your issue with the audience behavior before you attack Anton for being unprofessional.
Maybe he shouldn’t let himself get so amped up he makes literal bomb threats because he doesn’t like the way it sounds. Both you and him need to grow up and get a grip on reality
@@robertjamesonmusicI wouldn’t agree with that and this is one of my favorite songs. I’ve heard some live versions with Anton that are amazing. This one isn’t the greatest, but I’ve seen many others that were.

Glad you got the “whole” outburst, specifically the Murrah comment. I was there, but only got the rant prior to the restarting of the song.
3:08 Joel’s like ‘here we go again…’
He's unphased at this point.
😂😂😂😂
Lol love Joel. Even after Anton stops playing to yell, he’s still shaking the tambourine 😂
My favorite part is that he said it while leaving the stage and his band mates got to stand there and deal with the awkwardness.
