The King Diamond / Hal Patino soap opera...

[labrekk]

Hal Patino is no more the King Diamond bassist. Did he leave? Was he fired? Is he a drug addict? Is King a "tired, bitter, old man"? Read all about it:

It's a Conspiracy.

I'm at least glad King said more about it. That one vague Facebook message was just too little. Hopefully it stops at this before either party makes it any worse.

From a fans standpoint, it sucks because Hal Patino was a great bassist. From a business point of view, who cares? You don't like how much you're getting paid, get a new job! Simple. The fact that its turning into a circus can be blamed on Blabbermouth's propaganda machine..."Cinderella says they were discovered by Gene Simmons, NOT Jon Bonjovi!" Its all bullshit to get people to read the articles, and usually the headline was a line or two taken out of context.

Bottom line is, King Diamond is the boss. What he decides goes. You don't like it, bye bye! The soap opera stuff is for the birds though.

I hate when the dirty laundry gets aired in public.......

Hal was great live. Amazing presence.

So now that they have the Poodles bassist, is Justin Gaines now interested in King Diamond?????????

Well, is Egberg's bass made out of Legos?

I actually have been trying to develop an appreciation for King Diamond, but I can assure you it has nothing to do with the Poodles or Lego.

Justin is too busy appreciating Neverland than to be getting into KD!
