This was a game changer | Blue Ridge Festival 

As someone who suffers with several invisible disabilities. The ending of you’re video hit me in the feels. Also October is disability awareness month so thank you for making our voices heard and acknowledging us on stage. Most musicians turn a blind eye. I feel at home when I’m at BVB concert. You all really show us fans love and support especially those who have disabilities like I do. So to have a positive band like yours out there who wants inclusion for us who have disabilities. Means the world to me. All I can do is send you my best. You’re the best Lonny. These videos are pure inspiration and wholesome. Thank you for being such a positive light for the world. 🫶🏻🤘🏻

Andy 😂😂. “ are we doing the Hokey Pokey what’s going on 🤣”

Lonny your Tour Vlog series have become my new favorite thing on the internet. Keep up the good work.

One of my closest friends has spina bifida and is wheelchair-ridden. His name is Isaac and he is just the sweetest guy. We've been best friends for 20 years!

As someone who suffers from a invisible mental disability (or so as society says it’s invisible in women but not men) That message at the end hit deep I know several people who are stuck in wheelchairs whether it be from injury or physical disability that they will have all their life. I always thought what I had slowed me down but after hearing about someone crowd surfing in a wheelchair made me realize that I have it easy compared to some people out there. Keep up the good work Lonny your an amazing guy with some awesome guitar skills, same goes to Andy, Jake, CC, and Jinxx. Your all amazing people and have fantastic skills at what you love to do. ❤️🤘🏼

As a person who has a physical disability I’m in a wheelchair as well it really makes me happy that 1. He flipping CROWD SURFED and 2. It really makes me happy that you acknowledged it and the message was very inspiring ❤ I hope you get to tour with def leopard sometime and talk to Rick Allen their drummer he only has one arm he lost his arm in a car accident.

wow. black veil brides helped me heal emotionally from years of anger/no/low/ poor self esteem resulting from years of maternal abuse. im now able to think of my mom w/o feeling any anger or hatred.

That message at the end hits hard as someone with kind of a disability ie my height/stomach issues I’ve dealt with all my life I try not to let it get to me much. I’m just honestly happy just being able to live life and have fun even if I’m having a really horrible day when Crohn’s decides it wants to kick my ass. I can definitely say one thing music in itself and your music has definitely helped me on those bad days it lifts me up and just gives me a reason to smile! Music for everyone disability or not it brings us all together as one and everyday I’m just always thankful for music! Hope you’re having a great Friday Lonny and enjoy your weekend! Love ya Lonny!!!! ❤️❤️

Absolutely love this vlog! The editing, the commentary, the reflection, just everything is rad. You’re absolutely right, our attitude towards situations or even after a situation can influence how your life goes. It’s inspiring to see people who are given what others may see as a “set back” make the most of their life and not let things hold them back. Positivity is just one of the many factors that influences our success in things. Thank you for being our positivity, Lonski🙏

Very insightful messages in this video. Thanks for sharing.

LOL, I was actually there and the reason why I got sick the next week was because of the rain. But I also had a blast watching my 3rd favorite band Black Veil Brides and my favorite band I Prevail.

Absolutely love the chill music that goes throughout this video🤘🏻❤️the end message though😭💗Lonny!!!! Making me cryyyyyy! I deal with social anxiety myself so if I ever meet you guys I’m gonna just be like…ummmm…hi?!😭🤣❤️

Lonny you bring such a great energy to the band. You definitely brought life back into black veil brides and I can’t thank you enough for it 🙏

School Of Rock is easily one of the best movies of all time. So cool that you got to do this. Great Vlog.

Great video as usual. Our attitudes about our situation in life makes a huge difference in the quality of that life.

The hokey pokey 🤣 This looks like an awesome festival but I heard the rain ruined most of it. I had tickets for the 2020 show that didn’t happen and was offered 50% off this year but I was in Chicago when it happened. It’s so cool seeing you guys perform on the same stage as “larger” bands. I’ll be seeing you guys in Kentucky for your Bandiversary! Gotta make up for the times I missed seeing you with them during the broken leg saga! 💙💀💙

This show was worth the rain. I looked like a drowned rat with all my war paint ruined but it was worth it to feel the energy from you guys. My first time ever being front row for yall!!!!

Much love & light sent out to all of you in BVB bless all of you too x 🤍🦁

I love these behind the scenes videos keep them up! 🤘👊

Omg Jack Black is so awesome 🖤🔥🎸 School of Rock is also one of my favorites movies, I think he is a great musical influence and a very funny comedian, greetings👋Hi, very nice interview Lonny. Im having so glad time🎶🙌

I saw you in Asheville right after this

my favorite Canadian with the best tour vlogs. ❤️

Thank you so much for sharing this Lonny, loved It!

Thank you for this. I was there as well. What a cool sneak peak for us fans. It was definitely pouring rain during your set!!

I saw you before this show at Rocklahoma was incredibly happy to see you play this time since you were still healing from your leg injury.I absolutely love thr behind the scene footage you shared!

I love seeing the footage right before you go on stage. So neat to see.

I really appreciated the message at the end of the video as I have several physical disabilities. I've had cerebral palsy my whole life (though most people wouldn't even be able to see it). I have hearing loss in my left ear and a slew of other medical conditions (and even possible hidden issues that may show up later in my life) due to a rare chromosome disorder called Trisomy 6 Mosaicism. Despite these conditions, I've never let them stop me from pursuing passions and living my life. Additionally, I've felt like an outcast my entire life, but I've found a home among the BVB Army (as I've made friends through listening to BVB and connecting with other people who also listen to it). It's nice to know that you acknowledge people with disabilities and include us.

Absolutely love the insights you share with us, making it feel like we are there with you. Such beautiful words at the end and really inspiring. ♥

your video made me smile once again, thank you for taking your time to film your experiences! I love the fact that you were even filming when you got on stage, to see this view from your perspective is awesome!! It’s so great to see you’re having fun and enjoy the time, that’s exactly what I’m always hoping for you to keep in mind during the shows because having fun is the most important ! When you talked about physical and mental disabilities in the end, I was actually so happy you talked about this. It really helped me to have a different, a better point of view on this and I am always going to think about this. so thanks for talking about this 🙏 I hope you’ll keep on having fun, enjoy the upcoming shows and have a good time! We’re looking forward to another great video of yours! 🖤

Such an awesome video Lonny and thank you for being such a supportive always, your words in the of the video means so much for all of us, there are struggles in different levels but as we respect each other the way we are, also helping always if needed, this whole world would be so much better place to live, people like you Lonny gives everyone strength to go through what ever we have to deal, you are so awesome!!! 🥺🖤

The importance of having quality, high grip boots cannot be understated 😂

Always look forward to your videos and what a beautiful message at the end

This video was amazing Lonny! I really enjoyed everything you talked about and it was super cool to see some of the behind the scenes footage of the festival as well as what happens right before you guys go onstage. I can't wait for TOT part 3!

Thank you as someone who has to deal with mental health and a disability speech impediment and ADD and other things we are just like everyone else but we do it differently why I always loved BVB makes me feel better about myself even when I’m different

Lonny your hair looks radical! Thanks for these, I can’t wait for the new album. Hope you visit the U.K. soon. Cats ass for sure xxxx

Woo see my self front row. Hope to see yall back again!

Thank you for the view backstage. It´s always interesting to see you doing these videos and I see the excitement in your eyes. To be part of something big like that must be surreal and amazing by the same time. And to watch you speaking about the guy in the wheelchair crowdsurfing- i hope he sees this video too and sees that he inspired you. We all got our problems and issues but music is a healer. I got a tinnitus and the music of the Black Veil Brides was a game changer for me too, cause it brought me back to want to put my headphones on and enjoy music like i did before. I am glad I discovered you at Rock am Ring- kisses from Germany. Hope you gonna be back there some day

managed to see yall at the Asheville show it was amazing

As always, awesome share! Behind the scenes is so cool to see. The cart ride, then walking out on the stage seems larger than life! The larger question is how many of those famous guys are backstage looking for you and your band? Because they should be!😃. Take care man!✌🏻😎

Dude we were front row for this! Badass! Saw you guys in worcester,ma also for the first time and man it was fun! Met Andy after the show in worcester too. Hopefully you guys are at Blue Ridge again!

Hey Lonny I will have to watch the video later but I am about to play with the Trombone choir at the farmers market

Te amo ❤️

I'm so jelly that you were in the same lineup as one of my favorite comedians!! Jack rocks! He's just too cool! But then again, so are you! I love your awesome skills! I hope one day you and him can collab. I hope you're having a blast on tour! Hugs, my dear friend! 🤗

Hey Lonny! Thanks for the new content, it's very special, I was really excited for the new video. Slipknot and Black Veil Brides? What a pairing! Slipknot is one of my favorite bands, as Black Veil Brides too. I would definitely go to a show like that. By the way, the part where you talked about the crowd surfing guy in a wheelchair really touched me, because you're right, almost all of us have some minor or major disability that we have to live with, for example I have it too. I was born prematurely, had a stroke, and it affected my movement. In short, at first I could barely walk, with a lot of help. After many exercises, struggles, physical therapy, rehabilitation, surgery, help, and years, I walk with a blue aid (I don't know how to say the name of the aid in English, but I hope you can roughly understand it) and live a normal, full life. I also jumped like a rabbit at the concerts compared to the fact that a long time ago I could not have imagined that I would be able to get there at all due to the disease. That's why your words were so heartwarming to me, you are such a precious person, you always want us to be happy and that is very appreciable. Kisses from Hungary❤️

it was only 2 times when i get to an apen air festival and it was raingin both times)) it must be regularity then lol

How does it feel when the intro starts and you hear the audience reacting?! 😯Does it give you the chills everytime or not as much now? I’d freak out every time!! 😂

Saw you in the crowd with your camera at blue ridge but got too scared to approach you lol, great show

Your wearing lz hoodie that's who I'd like to meet! My son did!

wow esto es realmente una inspiración para decir es hora de hacer rock

How do I cope with anxiety? I stay home!

I really like ur RU-vid content

"I know you're here to see slipknot but first, we're gonna do the (drops an octave) *HOKEY POKEY*

I watch your a movie as always wonderful and thought-provoking, everything is beautiful and suddenly in 3:41 minute of the movie you say and I see two dots as subtitles? Literally two dots . . Strange, and you didn't say anything illegal, I don't know, you didn't even curse it. At 3:46 minutes everything was back to normal. This was the first time I saw something like this.

Who were some of your absolute favorite bands to see play at blue ridge? Love your vlogs by the way 🖤

Does Andy not spend time with you fellas before you perform? He always seems to be absent.

what does Evil bass stands for?))

What happened with Mexico City's vlog? 😭

I actually started to say that to myself some people have it worst than me when I am stressing out. Thank for the little talk at the end. You look like you were having lots of fun. Have a great rest of tour!

Hello Lonny? How are you for this new stage? excited? I want to thank you for this amazing Vlog! I've been pretty sick, my health hasn't been quite right... that's why I hear your beautiful words at the end of the video. It really moves me a lot to listen to you and see you and always trying to make us all feel good and have a positive attitude in the face of how bad things can be happening to us! Thanks for your words. Lonny I swear that right now your words are helping me a lot and you make me feel much better here! You are the best! Never change! and you always know from here supporting you in everything! hugs and good luck! 🙏🏻🦅🎸 This has been a great video and very amazing! waiting for the next one! ✌🏻
