Beatallica Bassist To Sit Out Fall Tour

Bassist Kliff McBurtney of the Milwaukee-based Beatallica, a satirical mashup act whose hilarious schtick marries the songwriting prowess of the Beatles to the deep-throated rock growl of Metallica, has posted the following message on the group's official web site, according to Blabbermouth.net:

"At the beginning of November my wife, daughter and myself made a big jump and moved to the Seattle, WA area. This is something that we have been talking about doing even before I was in Beatallica. Due to a certain turn of events and family obligations we decided that the time was now or never. We really enjoy it out here and look forward to getting to know the people and area more. However, we do miss all of our family and friends back in the Midwest and there's no doubt about that.

"Which brings me to the important issue. Between just getting off the road/plane, trying to get my family's move completed and trying to get everything settled here in the Northwest I will not be able to go out on the upcoming late fall tour here in the States. It saddens me that I can't be out there, not only for the band but for all of the fans and friends that I was so looking forward to meeting. But when it comes down to it, family comes first, always.

"Have no fear though, the guys will have a great friend and musician along with them in my place this time around and I have every bit of confidence in the world that he'll show my ass up night after night! Treat him right because he's one of us. Get out there and get slammed!"

Upcoming Beatallica shows are as follows:

11/28 - Columbus, OH - Little Brother's
11/29 - Washington, DC - Black Cat
12/01 - Baltimore, MD - Fletcher's
12/02 - New York City - Knitting Factory

Blink_182_fan, hey you did that on the RHCP news forum today. That's pretty annoying. Go do that somewhere else.

[CLOWNDEACAN]

immature prick. blink fan indeed... shit head

ive heard of beatallica... but never knew what they really were lol

[HellrzngPinhead]

He does that on every thread. He's just obnoxious in general (in case you couldn't tell by being a Blink fan).

[Blink_182_fan]

ive never even heard of you

[DaveDaThrasha]

blink fan is a fagget

[Blink_182_fan]

Wow you sure show me there DaveDaThrasha

[math2000]

Metallica Energy Drink® coming to your local Target Stores®.

[Archaon]

Blink_182_fan- The typical blink fan:
Stupid, immature, stupid, obviously making up for a small penis or other lacking, and has shitty taste in music, and once again stupid.

[Dirtydeeds468]

Arhhghghgghg.....Blink 182...the only band whose FANS are as annoying as the music..


(grumbling about poppy Mtv crap)

[pearlJam_31490]

Who is this beatallica band are they a cover band or tribute band for Blink 182. Their is no way they can be that bad.

[pearlJam_31490]

but serious they make up a name that sounds like metallica and there bass players name is Kliff Mcburtney. which sounds a little like cliff burton. r they that destperate to sound like metallica that they name there band beatallica and there parent names the kid Kliff McBurtney. Sounds pretty ****en stupid if u ask me.

[bassmonkey16]

just wonderin, are these coloumns monitered like the forums? id love to see that blink 182 guy outta here...anoyin prick

[sologuitarlegen]

you dont get it. They are a mix between the beatles and metallica. Hence beatallica. So for laughs, they made names that mixed with metallica members and beatles members.

Are you stupid? That's not his real name, it's his stage name, you moron...It's a mix between Cliff Burton and Paul Mcartney...I hate stupid UG'ers...

[green_ramou!]

Ok i dont know about you guys, but i think beatallica is a Frickin disgrace to to great bands(mostly Beatles though). I Think that their music outrightly SUCKS ASS!!! they blow!

[everytimeifry]

beatallica rules lol

[ollerom_mot]

I think no doubt about it, Beatallica are a great band as far as parodies go. "Let it be, Let it be, hybrid children watch the sea...." -quality. As a fan of both it's easier to appreciate the humour.

[fv_2000]

Blink 182 sucks
