BANGKOK — A Dallas businessman who insisted on singing with the band in a bar in a beach town in Thailand was killed by one of the musicians, police said Wednesday.
Bobby Ray Carter Jr., 51, died at a hospital of a stab wound in his chest after a brawl broke out early Wednesday at the bar at Ao Nang beach in Krabi province, police Lt. Col. Jongrak Pimthong said.
An employee at Carter's Design District-headquartered business, LED Cool Lights, confirmed to The Dallas Morning News that he owned the company. She said employees were told yesterday of Carter's slaying and said the company could offer no further comment.
Pimthong said Carter, who was intoxicated, began singing with the band and refused to leave the stage to let other customers sing.
“Witnesses said Carter got angry when the band played “Hotel California” instead of the song he requested, and he refused to step down,” Krabi city police chief Col. Taksin Pochakorn said.
Police said the band then stopped playing and Carter and his 27-year-old son got into a furious argument with the musicians.
Jongrak said Carter was stabbed in his chest with an iron rod during the fight outside the bar and his son was injured in the head.
The three band members were arrested and face charges of causing death by physical attack.
Ao Nang is a popular spot for foreign tourists on Thailand’s west coast.

Now THAT's a very metal way to go out. Not quite as awesome as John Denver or Amy Winehouse, but close. I hope I go out by getting stabbed to death after arguing over an Eagle's song, too.
