July 16, 2007, 17 years ago
The Syndicate Blog (blog.thesyn.com.s17153.gridserver.com) has issued the following:
"GWAR has been using their live show to take a shot at LORDI, the other monster rockers on the other summer metal festival.Since rising from obscurity after winning the 2006 Eurovision contest, Lordi has been berated with accusations of shtick-stealing. Frontman Mr. Lordi has denied even knowing of Gwar until recently, claiming that Gwar is little-known in his native Finland and that the claims didn’t start until Lordi was discovered in America.
It seems Gwar’s Oderus Urungus doesn’t care one way or another, as the band has been including Mr. Lordi in their massacres on Sounds Of The Underground this summer. After their opening song, Oderus asks the crowd “Oh, were you expecting Lordi?” and proceeds to take a replica of Mr. Lordi’s head out on a stick. Obviously, the crowd gets covered in blood. We caught footage of it last night during their SOTU set at the Starland Ballroom in Sayreville, NJ."
