Meet Laura Lush of Sacramento punk band, Get Shot!. She's in the news lately because during a tour of the country, she and her band stopped by the Westboro Baptist Church and she fingered herself on the front lawn, all taped for an amateur porn series.
Avid Livecast listeners know how much I support fingering in public, especially in the name of protesting the Westboro Baptist Church, who are not only douchebags, but made headlines with metal fans after the passing of Slayer's Jeff Hanneman, hating The Dillinger Escape Plan and being trolled by Attila.
First, let's take a look at this band, what a bunch of winners:
Get Shot! is not just a punk band, it's a budding amateur porn site (NSFW) created by J.P. Hunter (he's the lone dude in the photo, natch). While driving through Topeka, KS, bassist Laura Lush decided to stand up and FIGHT by sitting down and poking herself:
“ The Phelps family and Westboro Baptist Church are ridiculous and do nothing except spread hate and cause controversy. As a bisexual woman and the bass player of a ridiculous punk band, I wanted to spread my legs and cause controversy.” – Laura Lush, Get Shot!
Wonderful! And naturally, the band is getting a ton of press for this, which we have also taken the bait on, but this story is too fantastic not to report on. Apparently footage of the "sit in" can be seen here but due to the overwhelming traffic, the page is not loading.
It's nice to see people giving the Church a taste of their own absurd medicine.
