“‘He gave us 10 different reasons why we should stop — ‘My microphone
doesn’t work, I got diarrhea, the monitors are f–ked up’ — whatever he
could think of. We decided that’s not fair to the fans. We wanted to
give them a full show.’
“In part, the other members of Divine
Heresy decided to finish the gig because they didn’t think Cummings was
being honest about why he wanted to cut the set short. ‘We felt that he
wanted to end the show early to go hang out at the New England Metal
Fest, which we were supposed to be performing at the next day,’ Cazares
said.
“But when Divine Heresy blasted into the next song,
Cummings became unglued. He tried to pry the drumsticks from Tim
Yeung’s hands, then he shoved Cazares, knocking him down. ‘The venue
has a weird step onstage, and I hit the step and fell after he pushed
me,’ Cazares said. ‘He just caught me off balance. It was extremely
unprofessional, and, in my head I just knew it was over with him.’
“The
Poughkeepsie incident was the final straw in a relationship that had
grown increasingly strained over time. From the start, Cummings’
hardcore and hip-hop background clashed with the rest of the band’s
brutal death metal orientation, and as the lead singer, he seemed to
see himself as the leader of the group even though the band was formed
by Cazares. ‘He’s a big, intimidating guy and he knows how to use that
to his advantage,’ the guitarist explained. ‘We didn’t agree on a lot
of things and we thought it was better that he left.'”
