ALL SHE HAD TO DO WAS WAIT FOR THE POLICE!!! ROFLMFAO

This happened to Nate from the local Murfreesboro band,44vegas just the other nite. Pretty insane!

Just think... all she had to do was wait for the police... *sigh* Stupid people annoy me!

Yea, but this is how he told the story:

"I figured I'd share some crazy news with you guys - this happened just a few days ago - the night of the last show...

So... 44 Vegas is playing a show last Saturday night in Nashville... Walter goes to turn into the parking lot and this lady passed him on the left and smashes into his car... So they pull in the parking lot and start doing normal "post accident" stuff. I call the police. Walter calls the police. The lady ends up telling Walter that she doesn't have insurance ...

Next thing you know she says that she's not waiting for the police and gets in and starts her car. So we stand in front of her car to stop her from driving off... which works for a second. Next thing you know she hits the gas, I fly up onto her hood and hang on for dear life... She drives for 3 miles with me on the hood hitting speeds of like 45 mph and not stopping at all... We cross the Shelby Street bridge and I manage to get one heck-of-a grip on the car hood and I've planted my feet and she can't shake me off... Yes, she actually started swerving back and forth...

I'm wondering what she's thinking, and how will I get back, and where we were going, and all kinds of crazy stuff. I realize I'm in a bit of a situation and need to get off without getting hurt...

Once I've got a good hold I whip out my cell phone and call the police. "You gotta help me - I'm on top of a car and we just crossed the Shelby Street Bridge" I say... "WHAT?" the guy says back... now that I look at it - it is funnier... So I'm on the phone with the cops, I look over and see Keith (owner of club we played at) driving next to this psycho... He's yelling out the window to me and then the lady tries to hit him! I look up and see the police helicopter's spotlight pointed towards the car - just like in a movie or something... She whips down Interstate Drive and drives through a gas station because the light was red... People are looking and pointing - I'm just wishing she'd stop...

Anyways, I jump off the car the next chance I get (she had stopped for the light) and I got into the car with Keith and we finished chasing her down - armed with me on the cell phone with the cops... Yelling out every street we crossed and turns we made... "She's going for the interstate - no she's not - she turned right on main... etc...

TWELVE cop cars surround her with us right behind her near a Mapco station ... I end up spending almost 2.5 hours dealing with the police and going to Metro Night Court to press charges... She got a $30,000 bail... it was insanity.

The best part was driving back over and walking in - finish setting up my drums (thanks fellow band members!) and play the show. ROCK N ROLL! Never say die!

A night I'll never forget.... That's for sure...

ROCK ON!
Nate"
