___________________________________________________________________________________________________ This can happen during a Moffatt concert! Scott has said that he really wants to have a concert in the Globe (Globen, Stockholm) one day. Thats his biggest dream about Sweden. During a concert in Vancouver, Clint slipped on a cord, he never fell but Scott got mad and Clint was really embarrassed so everything went wrong: he introduced the wrong song and played wrong in the beginning of another song. Poor CT! During another concert Scott used wrong guitar. He didnt notice until Frank came out on stage and said "Maybe you would need this one!?" So they suddenly stopped playing and Clint said "We just checked the sound a little bit" Though Scott almost always throws out his shirts into the audience during the end of the concerts, hes beginning to get less and less clothes so his brothers have to lend him their shirts. Scott always goes to the bathroom before a concert, just in case. The Moffatts have had more than 1500 live performances. During one of The Moffatts concerts Bobs bass drum broke when they were playing the beginning of Wild at heart so the others had to play the introduction over and over again until it was fixed. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________ Moffatts' dreams:
- Scott, Clint and Bob started playing the guitar already before the band started.
Of course it's human to dream, but is it human to be so extremely great as The Moffatts are? What kind of dreams do these super-human guys have?? Not very normal stuff it seemm...?
- Scott has as very little dreamt he was in stage in front of an enormous audience he couldn't see the end of and rocked hard!
- Scott often has nightmares about him standing on stage playing. Suddenly his guitar starts to play uncontrolled and rock around on stage with him desperately hanging after.
- Here Clint tells his scariest nightmare. "I had a dream about a little bird flying in the sky a sunny day. And all of a sudden it falls into a pudding jar and drowns. It's my very scary dream!" (Clint has had this dream over and over again and it's always as scary as the time before. But his brothers think it's seems pretty corny. What d'ya think?)
- Scott had a horrible dream he has dreamt ever since he was little. Even though he in daylight knows it's nothing to be scared of, he can't help he thinks it's scary when he has it. "When we went to playschoolwe had an hour in the afternoon when we slept and everyday I had to go home because I had this nightmare. It was the same dream every time and it was stupid because I remember it afterwards and asks myself 'why would I be scared of this?' In the dream I get pushed into a tube andthis thing continues to push me and it goes really fast. Then it slows down and and I get scared again and again. Every afternoon our babysitter had to come and take me home."
- Dave's dreams are a bit different from the others. Here's a description of them: "I used to have alot of nightmares every night but mine were like chapters. One night it could be on a rock and then I fell off and then I fell into the see and the sharks attacked me. The next night it could bein a swimmingpool and the sharks killed me there."
- What about Bob???? Nah, he didn't have that much mightmares. Instead he's afraid of stuff in real life. For example drinking milk outdoors. "I am afraid of drinking milk outdoors, because I'm afraid that an insect or something will fly into my glass right before I drink."
___________________________________________________________________________________________________ OH, HOW THEY FIGHT!!!!
- And when it comes to milk, he won't drink it at all: "We were hockeyplayers when we were younger so we drank a lot of milk. And it was one time Scott found a spider leg in his milk. From that time I've never drank milk again!"
- At a concert Dave started playing the wrong song so Scott shouted "Fuck You" at him.
- At another concert Dave and Clint were in this huge fight and Frank told Dave he had to go to the tour bus right after the show. He wasn't evel allowed to join the afterparty with all the fans and everyone felt so sorry for him because he was standing looking out of the window and looked so sad.
- Another time Bob was writing an autograph for a fan. Suddenly Scott walkes up to him and says "Can I have your pen Bob?" Bob refuses to give it to him because he is still writing. So Scott screams "Fucking Hell Bob, it takes you five minute to write one fucking autograph"
- The same day Scott was a bit mean to Dave. Dave wrote a mesage to a fan but they interrupted him so instead of "It has been wonderful to meet you" he wrote "It is been wonderful to meet you" so Scott said something like "Is? What is?" Dave corrected his mistake but Scott turned to Bob and said "illerate"
- One time Scott and Dave were "fighting". What happened was Dave was whining because the others were singing a song about him. Scott ended up calling Dave a baby.
- The other three were mean to Dave during a soundcheck. Just in the end of the song dave got it wrong so they had to do everthing from the very beginning and the other started yelling at him and hitting him. But it was almost only playfully.
- During another soundcheck Scott was STÄMMA his guitar and Bob hit a drum so Scott told him to Shut up. But some minutes later Bob tests out his drums againand Scott shoutes once again "Shut up!". Then Bob says "Why are you always picking on me?" When Scott doesn't answer he turns to Clint asking "Clint, why does Scot always pick on me?" Clint just laughs. Again some minutes later Dave checks his keyboards and Scott yells "Shut up!" again. Dave says "You didn't say please" so Scott says "can you shut up, please?" it was pretty funny because they all had to have their instruments ready and Scott told the others had to be quiet so he could have HIS ready. Then the soundcheck guy asked "Are you ready for soundcheck now?" and Scott says "I can't play without guitar, can I?" And Clint's answer is "What? You can't.
- Scott were playing Nintendo 64 and dave was watching. And sudenly Scott's starts screaming at the screen "Idiot, I'm gonna kill you" And dave says "Do you find the key?" Scott: "I'm looking for it oh, wait, here it is... how do I get it?" And he starts using the gun to shoot at it. Then dave goes "No, Scott you are crazy! You shoot the key. Are you stupid?" Scott "No, I didn't Dave, ok. . . it is right there... how do I get it?" Then Clint comes into the room and dave says "Go get the recording guy, he knows how to get the key" Clint: No, you go get him Dave" and Dave goes like "NO, NO!!! Go get him, he can get the key!! PLEASE!!" Clint: "He is doing bob's solo, he can't help you play James Bond" And Scott goes like "SHUT UP YOU TWO!! GOD!!"
- One time at a show Scott's guitar string broke and you could see he said "Oh, fuck"
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
OTHER FUN STUFF!One time Clint said to a girl her hair was nice and he wondered what she had in it. She said it was some kind of hairspray that smelled like bubblegum and he took it out of her bag. At once Dave walked up to them and said "oooh" and stuck his finger into the BURK and took out some he put in his hair. Then the girl said "Bravo Dave, now you're gonna smell bubblegum exactly like a girl!" Dave: "Who cares? I'm gonna smell like bubblegum!"
- One time backstage a fan was telling about her friend Morgan. Suddenly dave screams "Oh, Morgan Frieman, he's has the same name as the actor" he sais it without even thinking of it.
- One time Bob kicked Clint, but when Clint turned around to see who it was Bob pointed at a fan standing beside him.
- This incident is a lot like the one before. Bob hit Clint when Clint was going to hit back Bob said it was dave who did it.
- One time when they were at a restaurant dave wabted vegetables and potatoes. But he tried to make the KYPARE confused and kept changing all the time by meaning. But Clint was irritated and yelled at him just to order.
- It was a girl who went to a a/g-session without being a fan. When it was Clint's turn to sign he asked her if she had their album. Then she said she didn't have it but she had listened to her friend's CD. He asked her what she thought and she said she thought they were pretty corny. "For example what song", Clint asked. And when she said 'Jump' Clint started jumping.
- In Germany Scott, due to Rich/Five, bad-mouthed one of his friends so to save his friend Rich started arguing with Scott and they turned out (almost) fighting.
- Another time in Germany Five and The Moffatts were kind of fighting too, so Five started to do the Caterpillar Crawl dance to annoy The Moffatts.
