Rich Attack -- This Bud's For You

We now have details on the fight between John Rich and Jerry Montano -- and it's much worse than we thought.

According to sources, Rich was in the lobby of the Mondrian Hotel early this morning. An argument started between Rich and "two tattooed, large gentlemen" -- and Rich swung a beer bottle hitting Montano in the face. We're told his nose was visibly broken and there was blood "all over the place."

Our source on the scene said afterwards Montano was mumbling over and over again, "The little guy hit me."

Cops are investigating but no arrests have been made yet.

31. I guess you really can't have fun without dysfunction and this guy sounds about as dysfunctional as they come. I mean really....hitting a guy in the face with a bottle? Whoa, BIG MAN!! He may have a big heart, but he also has a meathead and can't seem to keep his emotions under control.

33. In who's universe is a little country-ish elf smacking a big-bad rocker in the face with a bottle not funny? In country circles, its called a good time on Friday night.

34. #6 Us rednecks will stand up strong and proud, and as my daddy once said there is no thing as a fair fight. If you where bigger than me I would bust you upside your head with a bottle too you jackass.

35. This John Rich idiot is a untalented, red-neck loser. His big claim to fame is writing the eloquent "Save a horse ride a cowboy"....god knows we could've never lived without that trashy little gem. This guy needs to get the hell out of LA...he doesn't belong here. He belongs in a small, po-dunk, nasty, white trash bar in the back woods of Alabama somewhere.
