DD/MM/YYYY Arrested for Pillow Fight
While bands being arrested for trashing hotel rooms is nothing new, DD/MM/YYYY found themselves in a rather unique situation when they were arrested for having a pillow fight, according to CHARTattack.
The experimental rock band from Toronto were in Biloxi, Miss., where they were taking a day off between shows in Orlando and Baton Rouge, La. on Oct. 5 and 6.
According to the band’s guitarist/keyboardist/drummer/singer Tomas Del Balso, the band stayed at the Hard Rock Casino with These Arms Are Snakes. After DD/MM/YYYY were kicked out of the casino, they went back to their hotel room and took part in such an enormous pillow fight that the hotel staff told them to leave.
“After leaving, Mike [Claxton, bass/clarinet/vocals] drunkenly went back to the hotel trying to get [my] backpack which was left behind,” said Del Balso. “The hotel clerk gave him the key and everything but he couldn’t find it…afterwards the hotel casino guy saw Mike again and called the cops again.”
