Andy Biersack, Black Veil Brides frontman, called out an audience member
who was being disrespectful during the band´s Warped Tour set in San Antonio,
Texas.
During a performance of ‘Let You Down,’ Andy Biersack called out a man in the San Antonio crowd who was
making offensive remarks towards the band. Biersack even challenged the man to
come up on stage while the crowd cheered and stood up for BVB.
After a 90 seconds speech,
Black Veil Brides frontman decided to continue with the set.
“Here’s the thing,” Biersack begins. “So when I used to come to Warped Tour when I was a kid, I used to see
bands and I respect the shitt out of those bands on stage and sometimes little,
tiny motherfuckers like you come to a show and you stand there. Then fucking
come up here and show me how fucking big you are. Come the fuckup here. Come
on. Part the way. Come on. You know what’s fucking tiny about you? It might not
be your body, but you’ve got a small fucking mind, so go the fuck somewhere else.
I get it, I get it: we’re not heavy
enough for you, we wear makeup, we’re faggy, and we’re a shitty band. What you
can do about that is walk the fuck over there and not fucking listen to us.
When I was a kid and I used to come here, it wasn’t about your shitty, macho attitude;
it was weird kids like me who got to have fun. So what you do is you fucking
ruin all this shit ’cause you think you’re way too fucking cool. I don’t give a
fuck about being cool, I care about being on this fucking stage. Here’s the
difference: a little fag like me tried real hard and I’ve got a fucking band.
You can fucking stand there with your fucking muscles and jerk off all fucking
day while I play on this fucking stage. We here don’t give a fuck what you have
to say, so I’m done with you. Unless you wanna come here and show me how fucking
tough you are, I don’t give a fuck about you.”
This is not the first time
that Biersack has to defend his band, a similar incident happened with the Revolver
Golden Gods Awards of this year when Black Veil Brides received
the “Song of the Year” award, given by Sebastian Bach, while
raising a mainly negative reaction from the crowd. The band went on stage,
already with a defensive attitude since they were already expecting this
reaction, and responded to the haters saying “You motherfuckers should have voted for somebody because Black veil
Brides won 3 years in a row” and with vocalist Andy Biersack affirming “I know you all hate us but I´m holding a
heavy as shit award…”. Before even receiving this award, Biersack was
interviewed by Fuse's TV Jack Osbourne where he gave his view on the haters – “We evoke a lot of emotion in people, so much that they pee in a bottle
and throw it at me”.
Despite the hate at the Golden Gods, the band has received a lot of
support from their fan base.
