Ah they should have pranked Joan Jett and the Blackhearts! :pinch: I would have been there at all.

It would have been cool if the pranked Paramore in Marlay as well. It wasn't their last night, but who would pass off an opportunity to prank Paramore? :P

How did they prank Franz Ferdinand?

I loved what they did to them.

About 2:40 into this:

Guys with kilts on and bagpipes and stuff came on stage and were playing while Franz Ferdinand were playing their song. Toilet paper started spraying up into the air. Loud pops were going off throughout their set that just didn't belong, like someone was testing pyro stuff or something without any pyro going off. It was weird. Everything made sense to me when those guys came on stage and everything started being trashed. It was all to screw with them. It was really great.

I heard they also pranked Paramore at the Paris show a few weeks back, although I haven't found any videos of it yet.

They pranked Blly Tallent as well, they set of a pyro during their set and the singer nearly shat himself. The pyrotechs face was hillarious he was shaking his head and panicking and there were two dudes with heavy duty laptops running around mikes side at the barrier during the set changeover having to reprogram all the pyros because Tre set them off randomly and fucked up all the synching for the rest of the show XD

Yes, Tre Cool pranked Billy Talent and Paramore in Paris.

When Billy Talent was on stage, during the song 'Rusted From The Rain', there was a big explosion, all of a sudden: the guys got scared at first but then started laughing. Same thing happened to Paramore during the song 'Pressure'.

Tre Cool did all that lol

ahaha yeah, Snoo pranking them was great. And I forget during which act, but he went behind their canvas, and when he was coming through the other side (Mike's side) to walk off stage, he slowed down and stared at everyone in the crowd.

Was that one pyro all they did to those groups? They had to have done more than that. When I saw them do Franz Ferdinand they did several pyro pops throughout the set and then did the Scottish band playing the bagpipes, etc (because Franz Ferdinand is Scottish) and they toilet papered the stage while they were playing. More than single pops had to have been done to Paramore and Billy Talent.

Posted

Those single pops were the only I noticed ... well during Paramore anyway, because it was so crowded outside the stadium I missed the biggest part of Billy Talent. And I couldn't see things that clear either...

Posted

No they only did 1 pyro with every band, the first one during Billy Talent almost made me fall off my seat

It would have been way cooler, yes. But the pranks they did to Franz Ferdinand, Prima Donna and all the other bands were done after a month of touring together. That was the first night Billy Talent opened for them and second night for Paramore. it's not like they got to hang out and stuff. Maybe that's why.

It would have made more sense if they had pranked Joan Jett and her band since she got to open the major part of the european tour.

I didn't see any of the pyros i only heard them

the prank on Billy Talent is my favorite one, no doubts about it...

Nah I meant like, see if they did something else besides the pyro.

Yeah I was hoping that they'd prank her in Maraly Park but they didn't =/ It's random that they pranked Paramore and Billy Talent instead. Why did they prank 30 Seconds to Mars? that's so random :lol:

ah ok, i don't think they've done anything else

Don't know for sure, but feels like because it was the last show and 30STM's last (although first too) show. So pranking seems appropriate.

Feel free to tell me I'm wrong/crazy. I wasn't there and am totally just guessing.

Posted

It was the last european show, I guess that was the reason, or Tre was just bored. :lol:

The kangaroo in Jet... funny!!
