To be fair we don't know whole story and honestly I've seen enough to know that in rare instances a reaction like that would be completely justified.

Really?! From a musician to another? There´s no "whole story" to be told imo. Everybody know he was tough.
Can´t believe the guys took all that beating without saying a fucking word...

everyone needs to take a class in effective group communication. There's a good way & bad way to talk to people. Most people are horrible at it. I'm not great at it. But I always try not to take it personally. But there's a line to not cross. Without listening to these clips, I'm pretty sure Buddy crossed it. Great drumming, bad communicator.

[Steve Holmes]

I will be curious if they mention anything about that aspect of him in the documentary.

That audio from Buddy is only part of the story; we're missing the band's reaction:

It takes ball from Steve to make this statement, and I respect him a lot for that. We all know or knew someone who clearly abuses of his/her status. Bullying has almost become a admired culture since it's been exposed on TV by likes of Gordon Ramsey and it has to stop.

Peace.

no need for a documentary. if your a fan you know everything there is about the guy. every single clip of him is on youtube. could care less how he was as a person. only care about what he did with music and drumming.

Once I saw a comic book / cartoon version of the "Bus Tapes." Buddy's rant transcribed with pictures. Priceless.
