Someone pelted the Smash Mouth lead singer with bread and the band just kept playing 'All Star'
Smash Mouth, a band that still tours in the year 2015, was playing a show at the Taste of Fort Collins in Colorado on Sunday night when lead singer Steve Harwell was pelted with pieces bread from the crowd. Harwell didn't take kindly to the heckling.
He charged the crowd looking for the "p-ssy b-tches" who threw the bread and challenged them to come on stage so he could beat them up. Like all the best public meltdowns, it was caught on video:
The band's will to chug through "All Star" while Harwell threw his tantrum might just be the best embodiment of "Hey now, you're a rock star, get the show on, get paid," this world has ever seen.
