Video: SEBASTIAN BACH Throws His Mic And Storms Off Stage During Pittsburgh Concert

Fan-filmed video footage of former SKID ROW singer Sebastian Bach storming off stage after two microphones would not work during his July 3 performance at the Altar Bar in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania can be seen below.

In a March 2014 interview with Enzo Mazzeo, Bach explained that he did not enjoy playing smaller venues. He said: “Some musicians say, ‘Oh, yeah, I wanna play a little, tiny club, ’cause it’s so intimate.’ I wanna play a fuckin’ stadium, ’cause I’m Sebastian Bach. [Laughs]”

He continued: “When I tell you I don’t like playing clubs, the reason is, if I’m singing, I don’t want to be one foot away from the drum kit… I don’t wanna yell, I don’t wanna shout. I know I’m a diva. [Laughs]”

Bach made similar comments in a 2012 interview with ChicagoNow.com. He said: “I don’t like playing clubs, really. I like playing arenas because I’m six-foot-four [193 cm]. Basically, it’s the sound that bothers me in clubs. It’s very hard to have really good sound in some of these smaller rooms where I’m on stage and standing five inches from the drum kit. It’s very hard to sing in those situations when you’re used to having great sound in the room and you can hear everything. So that’s very frustrating.” He added: “I don’t know what to say. Promoters are all about the reunion tour and the nostalgia and that’s the way they think. And for a guy like me, it’s frustrating to have to deal with that. But that’s just the way it goes. At six-foout-four, I feel like I’m too big for a club stage… in more ways than one. [Chuckles]”

Bach is continuing to tour in support of his latest album, “Give ‘Em Hell”, which was released on April 22, 2014 via Frontiers Records.

As previously reported, Dey Street Books (formerly It Books), an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers, has set a January 19, 2016 release date for Bach‘s much-anticipated autobiography, “18 And Life On Skid Row”.
