Take joy in who you are, we know our wings are flawed.
-
Where you are right now blast some music and forget.
-
The devotion of the BVB Army, with its very big online presence, is amazing. We've been fortunate from the very beginning. It was something that was really able to spur on our career.
-
A band like Avenged Sevenfold I've praised quite a bit publicly, because it's a band that has moved into that arena-size thing for a hard rock band.
-
We're entertainers. We're theatrical.
-
Nobody is convinced that Johnny Depp goes to Walmart dressed as Sweeney Todd, but everyone expects us to.
-
My biggest love has always been the music Black Veil Brides make, but that doesn't mean I don't listen to or enjoy other things.
-
I don't want to paint myself as some villain - I was never a bad guy doing horrible things, but I got too caught up in wanting a very specific thing to happen to the band. Ultimately, I had to find the ability in myself to get over that and stop being so stringent and learn to laugh a little bit more.
-
If they can look past the fact that I happen to wear mascara on stage - which, by the way, is a ridiculous thing that people have a stigma about - then we promise a good rock show.
-
I was a little chubby kid that no girls ever talked to. I had little chance of becoming an internationally known rock star. Music was my escape and my belief system.
-
I had Batman stuff all over my house growing up.
-
We've won both the best and worst band in so many major magazines - we just get written off so much, but we don't care.
-
Never ran away for the sake of scars.
-
Reverse petting zoo. You pet the animals, and they pet you back.
-
I left high school very early. I was 17. So I guess it wasn't that early, but I did not get a high school education.
-
The pen and the written word hold a great deal of power.
-
The Misfits skull was my second tattoo, and the Danzig was my third.
-
Be who you want to be and not care about what others think.
-
You can't deny a band whose fans will literally do anything to see them win the awards. We're very appreciative to the fan base. That mutual feeling of appreciation is something that really helps.
-
I'm not religious, but I understand the need for faith and hope.
-
I see the merit in religion, and I see the need for faith and hope and sometimes people who are more snide look at people who are religious, particularly people in rock bands, and they'll say, 'Oh that's dumb, you believe in whatever,' but I think everybody believes in something.
-
I was homeless for almost a year and a half, just living in my car or bouncing around peoples' houses, going to 7-Eleven at the end of the day and asking them for the taquitos that they were going to throw out because I hadn't eaten in two days.
-
I just don't really think about death.
-
For us, we are interested in doing what's cool for us and what's cool for the audience. That's it.
