in 2012 i went to the dbmII release tour with my gf caitlin. we both loved jonnys voice and all his music, she was so nervous to get a picture with him when we met him outside the venue. he was so polite and patient with her anxiety, and we had a great time meeting jonny. a coupke months later, she passed away. every time i hear jonnys voice i still hear caitlin as she sang to his songs when we were together. thank you jonny for the happy memory.

When I was in college I had tickets to see him play about an hour away. I was going to meet my buddy there but I studied Architecture and it was about 10 days before finals so I had to back out last second. A few hours later I got a video sent to my phone from my buddy of Jonny Craig telling me good luck with school, not to stress out about missing the show, and that there would be plenty more shows to make it to.

Awh that’s amazing. I’m an addict. Clean for 8 years and I know that when you use what he chose that (same as me) addicts usually use because of pain and deep deep pain. I’m not saying it isn’t selfish it was but not narcissistically selfish. I feel for him. Very talented

After hearing Zac’s opinion on every other band they toured with, I’d say it’s fitting. Strawberry Girls is cool but Zac was a band elitist shit talker who couldn’t keep quiet even after the band and management warned him. You can’t shit talk the other bands on your tour to the fans. It’s a real bad look.

@JackKellyBastardMan 7 лет назад

...But drugs are an excuse. Obviously not one that justifies any of those actions at all, but they are the *reason* everything happened. He's admitted it on stage, apologized in just about every way (social media, song lyrics, interviews, talking on stage, etc) and reimbursed everyone who could prove that they were one of the victims. People just won't let it fucking die; they just love to hold on to it and bring it up years later. And the most frustrating part about all of this is that none of the people bitching about it were actually affected by it. When you're right, you're right---his sobriety sure af didn't last long at all and he absolutely did go on to swindle his fans, and those are both rather despicable, but I resent that you (who wasn't one of the 16 people) are still so bitter about it.

I've said it since I've known him and I'll still say it today, other chris sucks. he was a good vocalist, but like you said he rode the christian metalcore wave. if you saw how he interacted with the dudes in emarosa and myself included, you'd see how big of a diva he is. fucker used an annoying amount of my lyrics on "this is your way out"

@slickevadergames2051 4 года назад

He definitely a great person outside being in relationship, usually people are different in relationships. When you’re better off alone, it’s the truth. Despite the feelings, bottom line, it’s all logical thinking by the end of day. When he is alone with female and feelings are involved plus on top of that drug addiction is brutal messes with your head and emotions to not care and make very unthinkable approaches which are really bad.

@iHateSceneTV 4 года назад

SlickEvaderGames I’m not going to speak on his relationships because none of us actually know but I think it’s a Big leap to say he’s a “great person.” He was cool to me but we interacted once or twice a year. He was awful to a lot of people and he ripped off his own fans with no remorse.
