Asking Alexandria‘s recent show in Seattle, WA this past Tuesday April 29th was derailed by their heavily intoxicated frontmanDanny Worsnop, who was barely able to perform. Eventually the performance was interupted by the band themselves asking the crowd whether or not Worsnop should go to rehab.
More details on that can be found at Altpress.com, while footage can be found below. Furthermore, a statement from Worsnop on the performance can be found below:
“I’m sorry Seattle! Tonight wasn’t right. I’ll be back making it up to you. I’m a fucking idiot. I should never blame my actions on my relapses but tonight made me realize I have a problem. I for the first time in my life want to fix myself. I now know what regret is! I apologize from the bottom of my heart.
I’ve relied on drugs and drinking to feel alive. I can’t do that anymore. Tonight was evidence it’s not me. I can’t do it anymore. I love you all and I’m so sorry I’ve let you all down. Hopefully I grow to have some sort of compassion to myself. I live for self-destruction and that’s wrong. Nothing changes when you’re killing yourself with poison? I love you all and I hope you can forgive me.
I am officially quitting drugs and drinking, here and now. I want to clean up and sort my fucking life out. I’ll never stop hating myself until I stop killing myself.”
