This interview is up in my top 5 for Andy interviews. I will never get over how open and honest Andy is about everything he and black veil have gone through to get to where they are currently. I can relate to a lot of what he was talking about and is part of the reason I feel such a connection to BVBs music. Andy has mentioned many times that he doesn’t care to write lyrics/story arches about things he’s not gone through so they come from a place of experience and genuine feelings that so many within the BVBArmy can feel a connection to. Will never get tired of this band. ❤️🤘🖤
He’s only in his 30s but he had such an eventful life!! It’s amazing that he was able to come out of all of those dark times triumphantly! Looking forward to his future projects

@@evelic I don't know what you mean but he mentions his battle with drinking, being bullied and all that.
Andy is so real,open,and honest! It's refreshing to hear someone admit their flaws and actually Accept them❤
Excellent interview. My daughter is one of those kids wearing BVB shirts to school. She sticks out at her middle school but doesn't care what the kids say. There are some kids starting to talk openly about the metal bands they like. Falling in Reverse is high on the list.
followed andy and bvb for years and always loved how professional and open andy has been amidst his drinking problem, anxieties and other issues he has had, he’s always been big on growth and that’s something admirable
Andy is a genius and he deserves it all🖤 Love from N.Y.🖤
I met him for the first time in Boston may 8th he was such a sweetheart I definitely look forward to meeting him again ❤
I always enjoy seeing his interview. Seems like an open minded and intellectual. Unfortunately, I’m not a fan of the music, but a fan of the person
Really enjoyed this interview. Andy is so well composed. Artistically, Andy has grown so much over the years.
Great interview! As a nurse I’m baffled by the diagnoses for the numbness in legs. UTI? Crazy. More likely nerve compression from a disc problem. Enjoyed this interview so much ❤️❤️
This was an awesome interview. I could listen to Andy talk forever!!!!!!
The growth that Andy talks about is really cool. Living up to trying to be his true self in his career has shown through the years. Following the band and Andy since the beginning; love them all to bits. Keep Taking It To The Next Level Andy (if you know, you know haha)
What a great guy!
My husband worked at Steve & Berry’s in high school so it cracked me up to hear Andy talk about it, the accuracy 😂
This was such a great interview!!! Thanks, Scott!!!🤘🏻🖤
I don’t why but it makes Me immensely happy that Andy likes Grease 2.

Absolutely loved this interview. Andy is so well-spoken, so earnest and honest and vulnerable and just...human. I appreciate your guidance through this talk, and am grateful as always for Andy's perspectives on being true to oneself, no matter what. Thank you both for this.
Amazing interview. Watched the whole thing getting ready for work, and it made me wanna wear a BVB shirt to work. But I have a serving uniform, and I'd be dress coded so fast 😂

Nikki does all the writing...Vince attempts to sing....🤣🤣
Lmao 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
As a fellow former cincinatian. I have to disagree with Andy's opinion of their politics. Cincinnati has always been very liberal. However, there are closet conservatives. So perhaps he was surrounded in that environment.
Radke attacks others and accuses them of copying FIR. He denounced MIW cos they support all gender identities which came from a caring decent place. Causing drama when you're the wrong side of 40 for attention is OTT.
