H. R. appeared from underneath the first row of the pit and gazed skyward, wearing a twisted, inebriated grim.
*Off the price that these premium quality Serta mattresses would sell for if the covers matched. Quantities limited to stock on hand.
Two songs later, during a number entitled "Thank Jah," H.R. leapt into the crowd.
He turned to the crowd, warning that his band had come for a good time, not a fight. He told anyone who wanted a fight to leave.
A fan, identified only as "some skinhead" by other members of the crowd, spit on H.R. while he made his way back to the stage. He climbed back to the stage and lunged for the mike stand. He swung it hard overhead, and down into the pit.
The stand's weighted base struck the heads of two unsuspecting fans, drawing blood and cries of anger from the crowd.
Two songs later, the show was over. Two fans were at the hospital, and H.R. was in the back of a Lawrence police patrol car.
At noon Friday, Bad Brains canceled the rest of its God of Love Tour. The other band members and tour manager, Anthony Countey, left Lawrence for St. Louis and a flight home.
At 3 p.m. Friday, H.R. appeared in Douglas County Court and was arraigned on two counts of felony aggrated battery.
As of Tuesday night, H.R.'s bail
Their latest self-titled disc — considered their debut album because it is the first to showcase the writing of the entire band, not just singer/guitarist Ed Roland — is chock-full of quality guitar licks and intelligent lyrics.
remains unposted, and he is still being held in the Douglas County Jail.
I didn't want to write the last Bad Brains concert review.
I wanted to talk about Gary Miller's deft guitar work and H.R.'s insightful Rastafarian rhymes. I wanted to talk about the non-violent, rasta themes in nearly every Bad Brains song.
But it's the band's live show that convinced me that Collective Soul have legitimate long-term potential.

But I learned that just because H.R. can preach peace and love, it doesn't mean he can practice it.
My respect for H.R., as a man of religion and musical uniqueness, is gone.
The only positive thing I can say about the evening is that The Bottleneck staff and the Lawrence police should be lauded for their graceful handling of what could have been a very volatile and dangerous situation.
Whether Bad Brains will stay together as a band remains uncertain. I get the impression that H.R.'s outburst may have been the final blow to an already weakened partnership.
The Bottleneck still is offering a $5 refund to anyone who has a Bad Brains ticket stub. If you live out of town, send a self-addressed stamped envelope to the club. It will mail your refund to you.
Collective Soul
Shane Evans, drummer for Collective Soul, is very sensitive to critics who call his band a one-hit wonder.
"Man, we're just a rock 'n' roll band," he said before Sunday's show at Liberty Hall, obviously answering that question for the thousandth time. "We had some success with 'Shine' on alternative formats, but that one tune isn't what we about. It's a good song, but it most definitely isn't the Collective Soul song. A lot of writers can't get that into their heads."
Before I saw Collective Soul perform, I fit squarely into that category.
"When we play live, that's how we really are," Evans said. "There's no reason for us to go up there and pretend we're something we're not. Playing clubs andaters is where we should be right now. We want everybody else to enjoy the show as much as we do."
After Sunday's show, I realized that I had been seriously mistaken when it came to the musical ability of this Georgia quintet.
At this time last year, I was annoyed by the inescapable single "Shine."
Next: Make sure you see Quick-sand on Aug. 1 at Liberty Hall and Everclear on Aug. 13 at the Granada. Stay tuned.
