Atlanta man arrested after boarding Third Eye Blind tour bus

An Atlanta man is facing charges after police say he got into a scuffle with the manager of Third Eye Blind after the rock group’s recent gig in Athens.

Kevin G. Knoblich, 28, is charged with disorderly conduct and public intoxication after he boarded the band’s tour bus early Saturday after a concert at the Georgia Theatre, according to the Associated Press.

Knoblich reportedly told officers that he just wanted to tell band members that he enjoyed the show. But he was told to leave the tour bus, and then a dispute with the band’s manager led to slaps and punches, the AP reported.
