James Kottak Swears He Wasn't Drunk At Sweden Rock Festival

The other day I shared videos of a horrible Kingdom Come set at Sweden Rock where drummer James Kottak couldn't keep time. It seemed like he was drunk.

Kottak says he fell out of bed before the gig and broke ribs. He admits to the timing being slower and said he was in excruciating pain. Maybe he was. But then why didn't the band get a fill in? Someone at Sweden Rock probably would have stepped in to help. It's not like there weren't a lot of professional drummers around. In the grand scheme of life, it doesn't matter. But still. Paying customers deserve better.

Sunday's Best: Week 23, 2022

For our Sunday's Best this week... it's actually not best. It's the worst, according to folks who attended or performed at this year's Sweden Rock Festival. Apparently Kingdom Come were absolutely terrible. The comments on the Facebook post below are brutal, with many agreeing Kingdom Come's set was the worst performance they had ever attended. The blame is falling on drummer James Kottak. Seems like most fans thought he was drunk. It is quite ridiculous to play for thousands upon thousands of paying fans and not attempt your best. Things happen and people are sick or have off days. But just not caring enough to try and stay sober for a gig really sucks.


Don't even get me started on the fact that Lenny Wolf isn't in the band anymore and he IS Kingdom Come!




Here's a video from the Sweden Rock show. It's pretty bad.
