"The group is the injured party here," Twisted Sister agent Steve Green said Thursday. "They're entitled the whole $50,000."
Danny Peykoff, one half of the Newport Coast couple who organized the show, said he was "shocked, surprised and upset that a band � ya know, if this were a for-profit show I would totally understand, but this was a show for the troops. They're already out here (for a House of Blues show). The injured party here is the injured soldiers coming back from Iraq. Not the rock stars. They didn't spend a dime for this. That to me is un-American."
[If you missed the story yesterday, the show was cancelled after pitiful ticket sales. It's really too bad that Twisted Sister is taking this stance but what were the organizers thinking booking TS for this? They could have probably gotten a lot bigger drawing band that would have donated their time and effort instead of charging. Disturbed flew themselves from Chicago to L.A. to appear for free at the Raven's Heart Benefit. - More on this story here]
