Kind of a bizarre yet humorous video. I had never seen this before. A few minutes of weird neck-beard chat before the shakedown/strong arming. From the filming of the Chaos in Motion DVD.

Yes great video, hidden as a dollar on CiM dvd.Have you found a razor blade/beer

?

Madman Shepherd · « **Reply #2 on:** April 06, 2015, 07:19:32 PM »

This is actually on the DVD? How do you find these easter eggs? Come to think of it, I think I watched that DVD exactly once.

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #3 on:** April 06, 2015, 07:23:28 PM »

Best easter egg ever (good timing to post about it too

). Eric is a funny guy.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #4 on:** April 06, 2015, 07:37:19 PM »

That was great.

I think the Easter Egg inside the Easter Egg is that we know JP uses/used AOL

That's pretty crazy.

I never would have guessed but you really shouldn't fuck around with Jordan Rudess.

That was amazing, never knew about this! JLB and JR...

Somehow that doesn't surprise me

I loved this Easter Egg. The other if I remember is Rock Juice.

I love how James evaded and dismissed Eric as well.

This video never gets old. It's outstanding!

Myung was the funniest.

Reads the contract.

Then pays up.

Mladen · « **Reply #16 on:** April 09, 2015, 04:38:04 AM »

Yeah, this is such a funny video. Chaos in motion is such a tremendous DVD, I love all the extras and good stuff.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #17 on:** April 09, 2015, 04:55:01 AM »

Eric looks a wee bit like Brian Mantia.

Come to think of it, any DT fans going to that? Want to see it, but live in Bunbury, Western Australia, so that's not gonna happen!

What's not to love about it?! He was ready to completely crush the childhood of a young girl! He was ready to do irreparable damage to the working relationship between him and a drum tech all while refusing to pay him a dollar he was owed so his family would have to cancel christmas!

And what makes it even better is that everyone was in on the joke......

....everyone except for....

There was really nothing dark about that. It's just dry humor between friends.

JLB and Eric Disrude have always had a fluctuating relationship, as demonstrated when they came to Long Island in 2012.

Just don't plan on having a career in IT. it's usually agreed that an AOL email address means "immediately disqualified"

Kotowboy · « **Reply #25 on:** April 13, 2015, 08:36:23 AM »

I can totally see the anti-Labrie brigade using that clip in anecdotes about how "he sucks"

"

haha James Labrie. Terrible singer and he famously wouldn't give a member of his crew one measly dollar to help him buy his kid a gift because he wasn't getting paid for the tour but everyone else in the band helped him out. Fuck Labrie

"

I've heard anti JL sheep say that Portnoy "was" the band and it was actually James who was "a prick".

I don't use that one or the email in which my username is "ProgMetalMan" for filling out applications.

I had to create a more professional email address when I started sending out resumes a few years ago. I don't think interviewers would have understood what a progsnobdt@yahoo.com was or a KingElessar@gmail.com was.

If some guy assaulted me with a towel I would more than likely tell their kid there was no Santa so I can totally see why James threatened Eric Disrude with that!

Grizz · « **Reply #30 on:** April 14, 2015, 07:58:32 AM »

To be fair, the no Santa threat came 5 years before the towel.

Madman Shepherd · « **Reply #31 on:** April 14, 2015, 03:04:32 PM »

People don't just start assaulting people with towels one day. Usually there is a long sordid history of towel assaults.
