Falling In Reverse’s Ronnie Radke now uses his haters as part of the band’s live shows.
The band kicked off their new tour on Sunday, August 18. The frontman showed TikTok clips of haters on the screen behind him. This happened during the song ‘Game Over.’
The band last played ‘Game Over’ live in May 2019. They only played part of the song this time. The video wall behind Radke showed TikTok critics and their words to send a message.
A user on X posted a photo from the performance, writing, “Like I’m sorry but imagine being these people and now having like at least 100 thousand people see you and laugh at you in real-time because Ronnie Radke was in charge of the production.”
“Oh, it’s gonna get even worse. Lmao,” the singer wrote in his response to the user. “Okay but this could result in harassment, doxing, etc. this is legitimately dangerous. Can they sue for this?” another user said on the platform.
Radke replied, “This video is a live show of me performing ‘Game Over.’ The TikToks on the wall are people who use the song on their TikTok. On stage, I make fun of my own song on how bad it is. YOU ARE F*CKING RETARDED.”
The song ‘Just Like You’ followed. Ronnie took on the hate and called himself an a**hole. He invited others in the audience to do the same. The video wall read ‘a**hole cam’ and focused on Radke.
“Raise your hand if someone you know is a f*cking a**hole,” the rocker told the crowd. “I’m very aware, I’m an a**hole too, just like you,” he then said before starting the song.
The new part of his live show fits Radke’s style. He often argues with haters, peers, and media on social media. The vocalist recently fired back at haters who criticized the band’s new album, ‘Popular Monster.’ Ronnie told critics to ‘shut up’ and defended the album by saying it’s great.
