IN DEFENCE OF BLACKBRAID🦅
The lead singer of Blackbraid had every right to question why he was getting treated unfairly for 'drunkenness' at a festival filled with extremely drunk 'Vikings'!
If the lead singer was removed for ' drunkenness and misbehaviour' then please can someone remind me when this scene was ever about ' sobriety and
behaving' or are we all to do what we are told now??
If this man apologised for his behaviour (done in response to an attack upon his freedom) then the security guard also needs to issue a personal apology for taking away this man's rights to access the festival based solely on his very clearly prejudice perspective!!
The amount of hate comments now generating towards Blackbraid are disturbing and seem to reinforce this situation, as if it is expected that the behaviour of security cannot be questioned.
As I am also getting nasty comments in response to my earlier post I won't be reading any more comments and have chosen NOT to post my best photos onto this page.
I am extremely grateful to Blackbraid for giving this metal scene an injection of raw powerful energy which maybe was too much for some to handle.
Farewell Norway from Edinburgh, Scotland
