![]() ![]() And the first time in history we had one of those and immediately it was like, people were like, 'Omigod, they're breaking up!' Dude, it's one show out of thousands and thousands. "We had one show when things weren't going our way, and from this band that's kind of a surprise. "In 10 years, how many shows we've played, I have no idea, but way over 1,000, probably 2,000 shows," he said. Hook promised that, "That's the first time that's ever happened and that will be the last time that's ever happens because we've talked about it quite a bit and that's just unacceptable, and I think everyone understand that it's never to happen again."įIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH guitarist Zoltan Bathory, meanwhile, told The Pulse Of Radio the incident was blown out of proportion online by fans who felt the group was in trouble. Well, it's pretty hard to play a concert without the drummer." Jeremy decided that he had enough and he got up and left. ![]() And, you know there's only so much of that we can handle. But whatever…"įIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH guitarist Jason Hook recently blamed alcohol and lingering resentment over Spencer's book for the Memphis incident, telling the "Three Sides Of The Coin" webcast that "what happened, in my estimation, was that for whatever reason Ivan decided to get shitfaced drunk - I'm probably not supposed to be talking about this - but he started to lose his temper onstage towards, basically, the rest of us, being the band. But, unfortunately, it just happened in front of thousands of people - and on YouTube. So there's ups and downs, like in anyone else's relationship. ![]() That's a long time to be in a marriage together. He continued: "We've been together ten years. It's a shame, and we hope to fix that and go there and make it better." It's not like we're proud of what happened we're not. And hopefully we'll get to go back there and make it up to the fans that paid their hard-earned money and travelled all that way to see us. We kind of had a little bit of a fight in front of everyone, and we didn't mean for that to happen. But we're human, and we reacted, maybe, in a way we shouldn't have. Ivan took it a little harder than the rest of us, and he's not happy about what happened. It's frustrating, we start to bicker amongst ourselves, and just in a bad mood. There's thousands of people there, and we're trying to get these sound issues sorted out. When we asked him he said it would be an honour and he came to Las Vegas and recorded it there.FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH drummer Jeremy Spencer has denied that the band came close to breaking up after the group's abbreviated performance last month in Memphis.įIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH reportedly played six songs at the Beale Street Music Festival on May 1 before the rest of the band left the stage while frontman Ivan Moody stayed behind, rambling to fans.Īsked about the rumors that FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH was on the verge of splitting up following the incident, Spencer told Anna Dave Bertram of Sweden's Access: Rock at this weekend's Sweden Rock Festival (see video below): "No, that wasn't even close to happening. He always checks in on us, he always sends messages to see if we’re okay, he’s an amazing guy. It was a historic moment for the band and in our lives, this is Rob Halford singing on a Five Finger Death Punch song. But most importantly it was the song where we had Rob Halford sing, which was an amazing and surreal moment for us. “This was the first song we played in the set for a while, and another great song to play live – it gets a massive reaction. This song has never really seen the light of day, but it’s one of our best songs in my opinion.” Lift Me Up When we were recording, it was the last song and didn’t get mixed on time, but it was on the deluxe edition of American Capitalist. “I really really like this song, it’s very personal to Ivan. Again it’s really fun to play, everybody sings the words, and it’s a very impactful song live.” The Tragic Truth It’s one where we pull the kids out from the crowd and get them onstage – that’s a special moment in our live show. “Obviously it’s a pretty angry song, and another one that I really like because of the performance. ![]()
