Black Veil Brides did a signing at Blue Banana Exeter and also a funny interview! Check out the video below: Black Veil Brides are swiftly becoming that band that require no introduction. They’re on a quest for world domination and, quite frankly, they’re blowing everyone else out of the water in the process. We last caught up with Black Veil Brides half a year ago on their first ever trip to Scotland as they supported the mighty Murderdolls. Fast-forward to the present and they’re back in the same venue, not only headlining but selling out the premises with ease. Guitarist, Jake Pitts, took a little time out prior to this headline show to discuss being in one of the greatest musical forces of the world right now.
“Well I’m not drunk this time, so that’s good,” smirks Jake. Our last encounter over the summer was with a rather merry trio from the band. Turning to this tour, he continues, “It’s been amazing. Pretty much all the shows have sold out. The crowds have been awesome and we’re having a good time.” Touching on the sheer growth of the band since their last visit, he remarks, “It’s awesome… There’s really no other way to put it.” Read the rest HERE. Black Veil Brides has been performing Billy Idol's song "Rebel Yell" at the shows on this UK tour. Here's a pretty good video of them playing the song on October 7 at the Lemon Grove in Exeter. Black Veil Brides can't be faulted for their live performance which is electric, involving and highly entertaining. Their cover of Billy Idol's Rebel Yell is surprisingly well placed among their set which includes a good range of hits from both of their albums. It goes down brilliantly and is followed by an impressive drum solo by CC where the rest of the band leave the stage and return with their anthemic single Legacy.
At times Andy Biersack can't be heard over the audience singing back to him so loudly but he doesn't seem to mind and responds by throwing himself and his mic into the crowd. Bassist Ashley Purdy on the other hand seems to be happily entertaining himself by amassing a collection of various pieces of underwear that keep getting thrown in his direction on stage. Read the entire thing HERE. This lovely new v-neck shirt can be found at Hot Topic! Also, tonight Bryan Stars is going to post the UNCUT interview with Andy and Matt Good from Warped Tour! It will be posted at 6/5c so stay tuned here, on Bryan Stars's twitter to wait for him to post the link! You could watch the first version to refresh your memory while you wait ;) Jake tweeted that him and Ashley will be during an interview on totalrock.com tonight that you can listen to on their site.
