Moby: Now and Then

I really like Moby as an artist and dude: he may be a geek, but he's a cool and sincere one. He's also very intelligent and talented, and he's been around. I was very sorry to hear he was assaulted Wednesday night in Boston - quoting his site:

    Curious, Why?
    12/12/2002 - Boston

    brief update...
    we played a concert tonight at a small club in boston, the paradise club. and after the show i went outside to get into my car. and there were a few people waiting for autographs, so as usual i stopped to sign a few things.
    and then all of a sudden i was attacked by (i believe) 3 men with mace.
    they punched me from behind and i really had no idea what was going on.
    i assumed that a bar-fight had spilled out of the bar and that somehow i had gotten caught in the middle of it.
    but no. after being punched in the head from behind a few times i turned around to see what was going on and one of them punched me in the face a couple of times and then they all ran away.
    so now i'm sitting here bloody and beaten up and waiting to file a police report.
    the assault could've been a lot worse. but i'm very curious as to why 3 men would coordinate an attack on me? you know, 3 against 1? and the'one' in question is me, hardly the most physically threatening person in the world. so if one or more of the people who attacked me tonight happen to be reading this, i'd be really curious to know why you attacked me.
    you could anonymously sign on to the boards and describe the attack from your perspective. i'm honestly very curious.
    and if anyone sees me in the next couple of weeks and i have some big bruises or stitches on my face, well at least you know why.
    thanks.

Maybe they were friends of Eminem. Asshole pussy fuckheads - wish I'd been there. It took three of you limpwads to beat up on a pacifist vegan who weighs about 40 lbs?? AND you attacked him from behind? You are manly men indeed - how much Viagra and Ripple did it take to get up for that assault? You will get yours, I am certain. Once again: you are pussies, cowards, eunuch scum of the lowest kind. Eat shit and die.
