The electro-death-metal hit machine OC/DC, may cease live performance after a row with its tour management in Cincinatti, Tuesday. Bassist Chuck Bird refused to play after a hotel room shower door was “marked with water stains”. In the same hotel, Drummer “Lively” Jesmond reported a “misaligned” tea bag and Guitar Player Derryk Lomax said his toilet seat cover “may have been tampered with”. The band is as famous for its exacting standards on tour as it is for its loudness. Lomax, who wrote their million selling hit “You Can’t Be Too Careful” always has his guitar volume set at 11.793. The band’s entourage always features a dental hygienist and a forensic bacteriologist. But Manager Nigel Friend says he has finally washed his hands of the band. He’s reported to be “ looking for an outfit that won’t mind projectile vomiting into the crowd, or entering into messy suicide pacts with groupies.”
