Max Collins: "Indecent Exposure"
The buck naked singer/bassist of Eve 6 strode up to the hotel's front desk around 11:45 p.m. Monday evening to ask for shaving cream, according to accounts by hotel employees. Only after he turned around to leave did they notice that Collins had taken the name of the 20,000-population town literally. "He didn't seem to care that he was naked," the police report said. The offense carries a penalty of up to two years in jail and a $5,000 fine, but authorities expect Collins, who posted bail and was released from the Allegheny County Jail on Tuesday, to pay a small fine. "He was totally cooperative and respectful with our officers," Capt. McCarthy said. "We had no problem with this young man ... other than his behavior." source: VH1.com

My Chemical Romance: "Cancelling a Show"
sometime in November, My Chem had to cancel a show at a university because Bob [Bryar, drums] was injured. The University sued My Chem for this, even though the law clearly states that if a musician has to cancel for illness or injury it's perfectly fine. My Chem paid the university, and offered to play again in the spring there, but the college turned them down stating "they won't let it happen again."
