Band On The Run
Brooklyn, OH
Hopefully they won’t hold it against the responding officers when they hit the big time, but a local band’s photo shoot was thwarted by police April 18.
Police responded to a call shortly after 5 p.m. of two suspicious men holding signs asking for money and taking pictures of vehicles on the Tiedeman Road exit ramp off of Interstate 480.
More than 25 people were rounded up by police. They told the officers that they were in a band called Wicked Dreams and were taking photos for an album cover.

This is the picture of a semi coming down the road–this is of it a little closer—this is of it a lot closer—–and this is the picture of my eye hanging out of it’’s socket, and, Oh! that’s my leg over there. Doc says I should get out of intensive care in 6 months.

That is one hell of a big band and if their plans were more nefarious I give them credit for creativity in their excuse.

Two people were reported but 25 were wrapped up! Talk about guilt by association. What’s wrong with taking pictures anyway?

25 people in a (not so well known) bad??? Sounds more like a posse.

OH GT! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA. I laughed so loud and uncontrollably my 17 year old cat ACTUALLY “RAN” in to see what was going on. I CANNOT do without you guys for long periods of time because I’d lose my DOSE OF Belly Laughs, Lord knows we ALL need this desperately. Thank you, with all my heart! (BIG HUGS, AND WISHES & VERY LONG LIVES FOR YOU ALL) I don’t know what I would do!
