CELLIST SHARK VS FLAME GUITARIST
SHARKS WITH KNIVES: THE TRUE STORY OF HOW ROY MUSTANG CAME TO MANTICORE
By I. Yuriev
Like anyone that follows music, we were saddened by the sudden cuts both major labels gave to members of bands but are also incredibly excited over new additions in the roster to fill in what the cuts left behind. One of which is MANTICORE'S own newest lead guitarist, Roy Mustang. His former band, Ignition Point was often a warm up band for MANTICORE and sometimes Roy would step in Orion's place in performances. It would make sense for him to fill in the lead guitarists shoes.
But the truth however is much more sinister.
"They took him man." Mark Aguilar, bassist of Ignition Point commented. "Backstage I saw them come to the stage after we played. That crazy shark motherf****er had a knife to him while the big ass shirtless drummer with bad tattoos and that hot chick bassist were guarding any escapes so Roy couldn't leave. Genos tried to smooth things over, but it was pretty obvious Squalo wanted the knife out."
Then things got really tense. "Roy's got this handmade rigged guitar ya know, it's his baby. It's not just any guitar, it shoots flames. That's how we named the band after seeing him nearly set his apartment ablaze on youtube. Anyway, Roy had the guitar pointed at Squalo. What does he do? The shark asshole just laughs and takes him away. An hour later Roy met us in a diner someplace, said his goodbyes and said he was joining MANTICORE." When asked if he feels bitter about losing his lead guitar, Aguilar had this to say.
"Kind of. But hey, Roy is great guitarist that deserves to be in MANTICORE. I wish it could be done a little better, but I wish him the best."
The other members of Ignition Point could not be reached for comment.
