Batteries ARE Included!

If you're going to get beat up by an international music superstar, I would think you would choose someone like Mick Jagger, or Billy Idol, or even the cop from The Village People. Why would you get beaten up by Yanni? That's just bad for your reputation.

Yanni was arrested at his home in Manalapan, FL for domestic battery on his girlfriend. It seems that all of the gentle ivory-tickling finally sent him over the edge of the babbling brook into that dark world where chimes sound like bitch-slapping. While I find woman-beaters to be among the lowest form of scum on the planet, I do find it slightly amusing to imagine Yanni wearing a stained undershirt, swigging out of a can of Colt 45, attempting to flip over a dinette set that's bolted to the floor of the trailer, wrenching his back, filing for disability, and throwing a TV dinner against the wall yelling "I'm not gonna eat this DOG FOOD. You better make me some real food, bitch, or I'm gonna cut you!"

For the record, Yanni is maintaining his innocence, but I think he should at least do some time for "Live at The Acropolis". Ten or fifteen years should do it.
