GA tickets go on sale Friday but VIPs are available now via Sound Rink.
Bands who’ve played Snowed In in the past include Modern Baseball, Diet Cig, Such Gold, Beartooth, and Real Friends.
This isn’t brand new news, but people are once again bringing it to light.
Years ago, Dahvie Vanity, real name Jesus David Torres, used his fame as a musician to try and get his way with woman as young as 14. News of this isn’t brand new, but MetalSucks posted a lengthly article that has so much information that you should probably read. Alternative Press and MetalInjection also reported on MetalSucks’ article.
Some of the things Vanity has done include calling a tenth-grade girl “My Little School Girl” when he was 27 at the time, forcing himself in and on a 14-year-old girl, grabbing a girl named Shae’s mom’s breasts after pouring a drink all over the mother’s shirt, and a whole bunch of sick shit that you can read in the article.
Jeffree Star, a well-known cosmetics creator and former musician, toured with BOTDF in 2012 and spoke heavily about Vanity’s questionable behavior. “I NO longer support @botdfmusic an how disgusting Dahvie is,” Star said in a tweet MetalSucks posted in their article. “Touching children an enjoying the attention is evil. FUCK OFF sicko.” He also wrote that “Being on tour with that child fucker has made me see the truth. I regret ever doing a song with that pig.” Star appeared on four songs with BOTDF such as “Sexting”, “Inject Me Sweetly”, “DUI”, and “Poison Apple”.
These are Jeffree Star’s tweets MetalSucks posted in their article.
In somewhat of a response to MetalSucks’ article, Vanity posted a picture of him wearing way too much makeup and holding a Martin acoustic guitar saying, “People hate when their words can no longer get to you. When you’re unbothered & enjoying your life to the fullest capacity. Never worry about them, and always focus on you. ❤️ Enjoy life!”
Blood On The Dance Floor first formed in 2006 and have released nine albums, their newest one being 2018’s Haunted. BOTDF’s second vocalist Jayy Von Monroe left the band in 2016, causing the band to break up. The band did reform a year later with Vanity’s girlfriend Fallon Vendetta taking over Jayy’s role. BOTDF have toured with bands like brokeNCYDE, New Years Day, The Bunny The Bear, Let’s Get It, and William Control (a side project of Aiden’s William Francis, who’s also accused of abuse), and have played the Vans Warped Tour in 2011 and 2012.
