LAMB OF GOD's Randy Blythe Lashes Out On Disrespectful Fans: "I have never been more disgusted with an audience in my life. I wish we hadn't played"

When Randy Blythe called for 60 seconds of silence during LAMB OF GOD's concert in Medford, Oregon, on Friday, December 14, to honor the victims (most of them shortly) of the Connecticut school shooting, he never thought he was going to get such a shitty reaction from the crowd. Get this, Blythe almost walked off the stage! Here is what he commented via his Instagram account:

"I have never been more disgusted with an audience in my life. I wish we hadn't played," he wrote.

"We, LAMB OF GOD, asked for sixty seconds of silence during our first set break to honor the dead children and teachers in Connecticut. It seemed appropriate — it's a goddamned national TRAGEDY.

"Most of the crowd complied, but several didn't, some cursing and even laughing.

"I wanted to walk off stage.

"I am so disgusted right now.

"If you were one of those who wouldn't shut up for SIXTY LOUSY SECONDS to honor twenty MURDERED CHILDREN, go look in the mirror. You are looking at a piece of shit. Your parents are obviously pieces of shit too, because they raised you to behave with no dignity.

"To the fans who were respectful, I thank you. I am also sorry you have so many goddamned assholes in your community. You should do something about that.

"This shit would not have happened at a LAMB OF GOD show where I live, and that is a FACT. We have more manners.

"I am just disgusted. Thoroughly DIGUSTED. You yelling people give Metal a band name. Screw that, you give humanity a bad name. Grow up. Your parents should have beaten some manners into you, you savage little beasts.

"With that, I will go to bed, say a prayer for those suffering, and hope for a better day tomorrow, because tonight SUCKED."

The mass shooting that took place at a Connecticut elementary school on Friday resulted in the deaths of 28 people, including 20 schoolchildren. It was the second-deadliest school shooting in U.S. history, behind the 2007 Virginia Tech mass shooting that left 32 dead.

LAMB OF GOD's Chris Adler Comments On The Conclusion Of Randy Blythe's Comeback Tour + Extensive Image Gallery Unleashed!

The story of the year in Heavy Music is without a doubt the unforeseen arrest of LAMB OF GOD's vocalist Randy Blythe (Watch our video report HERE!). Blythe was arrested on June 28 this year at the Prague Airport on charges of causing, “bodily harm of the fourth degree, resulting in the death of a fan:” an event that allegedly took place during a Lamb Of God concert on May 24, 2010. Blythe was detained in a Czech Republic prison for thirty seven days before he was released on bail.

After having to cancel their highly anticipated co-headlining tour with DETHKLOK because of Blythe's arrest, once Blythe was free the LOG camp called up some of their favorite bands and were able to lineup a badass tour featuring IN FLAMES, HATEBREED or HELLYEAH, and SYLOSIS. The tour has come to an end, and in order to celebrate it in style we have an extensive photo gallery created by Horns Up Rocks' Zulie Alvarez. But before we get into that, here is what LAMB OF GOD's drummer Chris Adler had to say about the conclusion of the tour:

"By far one of the best Tours we've ever done has come to an end. Bitter sweet. It's been amazing to see Sylosis, Hatebreed OR HellYeah and In Flames every single night. We all get along like brothers and have had so much fun on and off the stage. I will miss them all as well as all of you that came out to support the tour. Thank you so very much!

"Now it's time to get home for the holidays with the family and I'm lucky to have that. Apparently, I'm being put right to work helping my wife pour candles to make all of her orders ship on time! Who would have thought?! Check out her website littlesilverlinings.com, or her Facebook page 'Little Silver Linings' and starting Tuesday I'll be adding my metal touch to all the orders!

"I hope all of you are well and I wish everyone a warm and safe Holiday Season. Stay metal!" - Chris Adler (LAMB OF GOD)
