From today’s NY Post:
October 24, 2006 — NEW York lost CBGB, but we’re gaining a new rock Mecca. Anthrax guitarist Scott Ian is teaming up with club owner Mike Diamond…to open a rock venue in Chelsea on Halloween called Retox. Cypress Hill is scheduled to play opening night, and Ian is slated to perform with the band Five for Fighting some time in November.
Oh, Scotty: First Damnocracy, and now this. How low can you go? Please tell us this is one of the Post‘s thrice-daily fact-checking mistakes.

And by saying that aussie crackhead Mike Diamond started Snitch, do they mean that he was a doorman for Panagea, mismanaged it into the ground, had a few points in Vela, terrorized his employees at Snitch the bar he supposedly “owned” with Slash and Scott Weiland (who never showed) and basically left R&R for dead after his reality show was left in the can?
Wow. Just wow man. Sad.
