Faith No More Use New York Rangers' Dan Boyle As Roadie

(Gibson) New York Rangers player Dan Boyle is a big Faith No More fan, and when the band announced their North American tour last summer, Boyle was determined to be there. The hockey player wanted to be more than just a fan, too. He wanted to be Faith No More's roadie.

Mike Patton and the guys made Boyle's dream come true and made him a full-fledged roadie for four shows on the trek. At the shows, Boyle carried instruments and set up the stage for the band.

"As silly as it sounds, it was an amazing experience," Boyle told the New York Post . "(Being a roadie is) a thankless job, but an important job. It's not that different from what (the Rangers') trainers do for us!"

Boyle's first brush with Faith No More came eight years ago when the band played their hometown of San Francisco. Boyle was in town, since he was part of the San Jose Sharks at the time.

"They were my favorite band growing up," Boyle said. "I told (the team's) p.r. guy, 'I don't care if I have to stand in the top corner of the venue, get me in there.'" Read more here.
