M Shadows shared a story with the crowd last night to explain why the hell he was up until 7 o’clock yesterday morning. Johnny Christ and Synyster Gates had been a bit inebriated the night before and decided to get into a wrestling match. Unfortunately, Johnny hit his head and was taken to the E.R. where he received 7 or 8 staples to his dome. That didn’t stop him from getting on stage and rocking the hell out of the crowd though he did receive punishment in the form of Shadows making him sing Zacky’s part in “Nightmare.” The video below shows Johnny singing:
Thanks to Leslie for sending this in and Tabatha for posting the video.

Comment by kenny January 26, 2011 @ 1:02 pmthis makes me really weird, we can’t have the boys all drunk and wrestling/injuring eachother or they won’t be able to play.. :/

Comment by dee January 26, 2011 @ 1:09 pmOn second read. 7 staples. Now we have another reason for the 7 in A7X.
Comment by dee January 26, 2011 @ 1:12 pmSo now it will be
Comment by Lennaert June 7, 2011 @ 12:03 pmAvenged Sevenstaplesintheheadfold? :p
And that’s why you don’t fuck with syn he’s a blackbelt
Comment by Chris January 26, 2011 @ 1:12 pmawe little johnny. i can just see syn’s big self standing over johnny asking if he’s okay while laughing
Comment by Zacorra January 26, 2011 @ 1:13 pmSomehow, this does not surprise me. Both that he was wrestling with Syn and that he still got on stage and rocked it :D
Comment by Kirsty January 26, 2011 @ 1:17 pmjohn’s voice is so deep
Comment by Zacorra January 26, 2011 @ 1:18 pmI was about to post that video :’)
Comment by Anaïs January 26, 2011 @ 1:18 pmthat’s not that bad :’D
I so would have paid to see that!!! lmao, this made my day. Btw isn’t Syn a karate expert or something?? poor johnny lol.
Comment by Sarah January 26, 2011 @ 1:21 pmjujitsu, i think… that obviously worked well for him xD
Comment by Anonymous January 26, 2011 @ 4:09 pmThanks! I couldn’t remember ;) Damn,Johnny’s got some balls then lol.
Comment by Sarah January 26, 2011 @ 4:24 pmjimmy and the boys made johnny so tuff he can take a lot n still rock out
Comment by kayla January 26, 2011 @ 1:22 pmhahahahaa typical
Comment by toria7x January 26, 2011 @ 1:23 pmJohnny is actually pretty good!!!!!!!!!
Comment by Mandy January 26, 2011 @ 1:24 pma’ight now I understand why Johnny’s the only one who never gets to sing. though i love when he sings the intro to seize the day on live in the lbc! :)
Comment by Dae January 26, 2011 @ 1:25 pmI think he does it better than Syn and Zacky.
Comment by Loghen January 26, 2011 @ 1:36 pmReally? I think Zacky does it better, although I still laugh every time I hear him do that part. Johnny voice seems to deep and slow for that part of the song. He does the chant back-up vocals well though.
Comment by Tabatha January 26, 2011 @ 1:57 pmactually Johnny did a really good job towards the end I liked it a lot…and I think you’re just use to Zacky yelling the lyrics as loud as he can lol
Comment by Ka7x January 26, 2011 @ 3:47 pmZacky Is A Terrible Singer. Lol. Just My Opinion
Comment by foREverTJ January 28, 2011 @ 6:31 amyour opinion has been noted and discarded
>joke<
Comment by Ron January 28, 2011 @ 12:31 pmI would have to agree with you. Though I dont think Johnny is any better.
Comment by biancalong January 30, 2011 @ 4:33 amI think that he should sing it from now on…he did a great job!! Go Johnny!
Comment by strunk22 January 26, 2011 @ 1:26 pmis it just me, or does Johnny kinda’ scream?
Anyways, he sang awsome <3
Comment by Ola January 26, 2011 @ 1:32 pmYeah, cause he got 7 staples in his head.
Comment by Anonymous January 27, 2011 @ 11:28 amHahaha he just kind of screamed it
Comment by Jake Fee January 26, 2011 @ 1:35 pmI thought Shadows said 18 staples last night? was I hearing things? and johnny rocked out like that didnt even happen! best concert i have ever seen! A7X FOR LIFE!
Comment by Leslie January 26, 2011 @ 1:36 pmLMAO! Poor Johnny, those staples must suck!
Comment by April January 26, 2011 @ 1:41 pmNot that we can even tell though since he rocked the hell out of everyone as usual…
Wouldnt mind wrestling with Syn myself, and I can guarantee no one would get injured ;0)
Comment by Sammy January 26, 2011 @ 1:42 pmhonestly… since the first time i heard that song i thought that part should be screamed and when i heard johnny unable to sing it and he started screaming it.. it sounded cool lol
Comment by cd January 26, 2011 @ 2:08 pmi have 9 in my elbow.
Comment by austins January 26, 2011 @ 2:10 pmAwww poor Johnny. He should know better than to mess with Syn and his ninja skills
Comment by beth January 26, 2011 @ 2:13 pm7 staples? OUCH D:
Comment by Gabby7x January 26, 2011 @ 2:25 pmI hope it doesn’t mess up his awesome mohawk! haha
Comment by Jill January 26, 2011 @ 2:35 pmIs there no video of him explaining this to the crowd??
Comment by Ruth January 26, 2011 @ 2:36 pmPoor Johnny Boy! You should never take on Syn! LOL anyway, I thought him screaming the part actually worked really well!
Comment by Morgan January 26, 2011 @ 2:42 pmSyn should be punished i say he does a show in his underwear punishment for him treat for all us girls lol
Comment by AsevenXdotcom January 26, 2011 @ 2:42 pmHaha agreed!
Comment by francyA7X January 26, 2011 @ 3:05 pmI definately agree with this! Lmao
Comment by Alyssa January 26, 2011 @ 6:58 pmHAHA YES XD
Comment by Gabby7x January 26, 2011 @ 7:17 pmHe should do a whole show in his boxers, would go down very well over here haha
Comment by Ruth January 28, 2011 @ 6:24 amWow. Johnny did pretty good, I think.
Comment by Anonymous January 26, 2011 @ 2:47 pmHahaha poor Johnny. Those boys are so silly.
Comment by Drea January 26, 2011 @ 2:48 pmhaha poor lil Johnny, he should know better than to mess with Syn’s ninja skills. :x
Comment by francyA7X January 26, 2011 @ 3:11 pmJohnny is a beast for still goin’ out there and kicking ass <3
Awww poor Johnny….=(
Comment by ashleigh January 26, 2011 @ 3:13 pmHow hard do you have to hit your head to get staples? *_*
Johnny singing that part was pretty sweet, he’s got a nice voice. I wish they’d show it off more.
Comment by Harley Quinn January 26, 2011 @ 4:01 pmDoesn’t necessarily have to be hard, could have gashed it on the edge of something. I mean, I’ve seen a kid run into a door frame and split the middle of his forehead open.
Comment by deathbatnews January 26, 2011 @ 4:15 pmDepends what caused it, really. I’ve had two in my dome and they were the end result of being struck with a wooden “gun.” Not fun at all. Couldn’t get them wet or anything. Poor Johnny.
Comment by Ash January 26, 2011 @ 9:23 pmHoly F’n Shit.Johnny should do all live backup vocals from now on.
Comment by N.Viknes January 26, 2011 @ 4:07 pmyea Johnny can freaking sing…great screaming! they need to let him sing like the other boys! just as good!
Comment by Leslie January 26, 2011 @ 5:42 pm[…] Johnny Christ Gets Staples To The Head. M Shadows shared a story with the crowd last night to explain why the hell he was up until 7 o’clock yesterday morning. […] […]
Pingback by Top Posts — WordPress.com January 26, 2011 @ 4:14 pmdamn Johnny…… yeah they should have him sing more.Guess Syn won that one lol. heal well Johnny
Comment by DebGrebas January 26, 2011 @ 4:35 pmSuch a tough kid that Johnny.
Comment by D January 26, 2011 @ 5:13 pmHaha that’s funny!!
Comment by EmilyA7X January 26, 2011 @ 5:25 pmI’m just glad he’s okay and it wasn’t anything too serious :)
It wasn’t great, but I think he could do some screaming parts in the future if he’s up for it.
Comment by E January 26, 2011 @ 5:28 pmSuch a funny story, I wish someone filmed it!
hes actually been screaming in god hates us during the breakdown when shadows is singing…and i recall him singing another part too the other night but i forget the song.
Comment by otis January 28, 2011 @ 8:24 amWow, that’s cool! I didn’t notice that at the show I went to, probably because I was pushed around a lot… Hah.
Btw, Jimmy would’ve laughed so freaking hard at Johnny singing. I can picture it.
Comment by E January 30, 2011 @ 2:48 pmThose are hard vocals to do consistently. I’m surprised Zacky can do them while playing (one of the hardest rhythm parts of the song). The note is an A5. Not super-high, but high enough where it would be hard to just belt it out like that. I like Johnny’s screams in Unholy Confessions and God Hates Us live. With some more practice, he’d sound good doing these Nightmare parts… but I’m sure Zacky will continue to do them hahaha
Comment by Tommy January 26, 2011 @ 5:41 pmsux that he got hurt, and i hope he feels better soon, luv you johnny:)
Comment by michele gomez January 26, 2011 @ 6:22 pmNow I can see why Johnny almost never does any backup vocals… lol jk :P
Not the best, but still interesting to watch :D
Comment by Gabby7x January 26, 2011 @ 7:18 pmI think he’s better than Zacky at those bits too
Comment by Kate January 26, 2011 @ 8:28 pmThe masochist said to the sadist: “Beat me, Whip me”
The sadist said: “NO”
This event proves Jimmy is still with them.
boys will be boys
Comment by Ron January 26, 2011 @ 9:44 pmWhen I read the article, I can picture it happening.
Poor Johnny.
Comment by Fatima January 26, 2011 @ 11:06 pmDAMN Johnny can sing! he should sing more often
Comment by Phil A7X January 27, 2011 @ 1:46 amPoor Johnny!!!
Comment by Rachel January 27, 2011 @ 3:29 amHaha woah man at least Johnny’s ok now:P
Comment by Angst January 27, 2011 @ 10:38 amand his vocals weren’t half bad either ;)
I read the article. I didn’t want to laugh, but I did, just cause I guess that sounds like them. Johnny’s vocals weren’t bad though.
Comment by Lisa January 27, 2011 @ 12:31 pmI actually like it better when johnny does it then when zacky does it
Comment by Wade January 27, 2011 @ 7:25 pmThis was much better than Zacky doing this part.
Comment by Alex January 28, 2011 @ 2:13 amHa. Poor Johnny.
