I See Stars gets the boot

2012-11-02 by c0nf1n3d | 83 Comments
I See Stars have been reportedly kicked off the "Thug in Me is You" tour with Falling in Reverse for
inconsistency, unprofessionalism, and drug usage. Vocalist Ronnie Radke of Falling in Reverse released this
statement today over their official Facebook page:

I wanted to let everyone know I See Stars is no longer on the tour. We had offered them the tour several
months back and then not long after we sent the offer, the entire band was arrested for drug possession. If
you have been following my story, you know I am very serious about my sobriety and have been sober for 4+
years now. I decided to remove them from the tour at that time as I did not want drug users in my
environment. After we informed them they would no longer be on the tour for that reason, their label
approached us and asked us to give them a 2nd chance, they assured us the band would not use drugs and
they would be professional on my tour. We came to an agreement and I gave them their 2nd chance.
Throughout this entire tour, they have been unprofessional. They have rarely showed up on time and have
caused undue difficulty on my crew plus employees of the various venues. It's been next to impossible to
keep the show running on time. I feel at this point we have no choice but to continue on without them. We're
simply trying to deliver the best possible show to all you guys and we don't feel like we can do that with I See
Stars. We're stoked to continue on with Enter Shikari, Letlive and Matt Toka (on select dates). I'll see you at the
shows. Love and respect, Ronnie.

I read this and I was like, "Wow, Ronnie Radke seems much less like a piece of shit."

Then I remembered the numerous assault charges stemming from throwing mic stands.

Piece of Shit and fuck I See Stars.

I doubt we're getting the whole story here, Radke's a huge asshole and for all we know he may be stretching the truth or outright lying. I don't like any of the bands on that tour so this news doesn't affect me, but still.

Pot calling the kettle black. He beats women and throws mics at people and thinks he can deliver justice: please fuck off your band is complete shit anyway. He doesn't have to worry about shit, the venue does every fucking thing for them, all he has to do is fucking show up on stage at the right time, he has no right to complain, maybe they bought an off brand Mac N' Cheeze for his dressing room n made him cry.

I See Stars has already responded:
We have been kicked off the Falling In Reverse Tour by Ronnie Radke. It has nothing to do with "drugs" or "being late" His statement is entirely false. An official statement from Sumerian Records showing the truth of why we were removed is coming. All emails and contracts have been documented and will be shown publicly in the response to Ronnie's post. You will find out exactly what happened and you will be disgusted to say the least. We promise you us getting ejected today has absolutely nothing to do with his lies about drug use on the tour or being late. It has everything to do with Ronnie's antagonistic violent behavior towards us, his ego, his malicious intent, his financial greed and his demands of no one being allowed to know the truth behind the scenes of this tour.

haha I'll voice my opinion on this:

I See Stars is a young group, backlashed for their style (flawed, but nonethless pretty impressive) Now they have made A MISTAKE a couple months back, something they have admitted too. Mr. Radke on the other hand has been imprisoned, kicked out of a band, beaten a girl, and maybe other douche things. So Radke, sorry, but you seem to think you're fans are idiots. You're worse than Jonny Craig and that Macbook scandal.

But, really sputnikmusic users, learn better ways to voice your opinions, you're worse then YouTube commentators. I don't express my eternal hate for Blood On the Dance Floor or Nickelback with such violence.

I do enjoy the fact that I See Stars is so cool with this and are just laying back, waiting for Big Daddy Sumerian Records to handle this for them. Just wait for Radke's response to be like Death Grips response to their own record label, with a huge dick that says "FUCK U!" hahaha.

Agreed. No band should ever have a tour with the word "Thug" in it. Falling In Reverse is as thug as a clean college campus. (I think I might be running out of these)

As for the video, if FIR are about to go on, and they were chanting ISS, he has every right to be pissed. But kicking them out? Fuck man, have some class and if you have to, call them out. But that should be it! Also, did no one else find "Lead singer of Weezer, get the fuck out" funny?
