Wonder if it was a couple of Eminem fans.

Ah, the irony of thinking you're tough by bullying a pacifist.

I'm glad he's alright. Seems like a thoughtful, sincerely nice guy.

Under attacked? Do you think Moby should've been attacked even more severely?

Oops... looks like I should change my location. I'm actually in Ann Arbor, MI now, studying for finals

That's so awful.

I've seen interviews and such with him. He's a very kind individual who would not harm anyone. If they are caught, I hope that the heartless assailants are promptly incinerated.

I enjoy listening to both Eminem and Moby, but why such hostility?

Why oh why I ask?

Here's what he posted on his journal (from his web site):

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 werea 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.
