Analysing Ronnie Radke's recent behaviour (Falling in Reverse)

[@deadinzoid]

Tbf... Ice Nine Kills cancelled pretty much all of their Headlineshows in Switzerland since Covid, Sleeping With Sirens & Pierce The Veil also skipped us every opportunity. As a Swiss I'm already used to Bands not coming here, was surprised Ronnie actually showed up here 🤣

[@MooSmith]

Omg that suuuuucks! I think that’s worse than a band not coming. When I lived in NZ we just wouldn’t get shows, I think it would of hurt me more if I got baited 😭😭😭 at least Radke did what they couldn’t 😂

[@heyyylola]

i love how unbiased u always are in ur videos :3 great one as always moo

[@MooSmith]

Thank you! 🥹🫶🏻

[@flak64]

one thing with the uk visa situation is that the uk can reject a visa after you get it so it could be that it was rejected after they got it, it happens a surprising amount over here

[@MooSmith]

Thank you for the insight 🙏 that’s actually wild, but if a dog move 😂

[@SonGohan-gh1yl]

I’m not a fan of the music, but I can get being a fan of it, what I really don’t get is how Ronnie’s fans don’t care that he doesn’t seem to respect or even like them lol

[@thisbishamiright]

I think a uk venue for falling in reverse got cancelled literally the day before the show

[@MooSmith]

This is so heart breaking for everyone with tickets! 😭 I wonder if they got stopped on the boarder coming in?

[@lilselfesteem478]

the glazing is INSANE some guy in his chat just asked "why was vienna canceled" and he went on a 5 minute rant insulting his fans leading to him getting kicked off a big festival in austria. Dont take this as hate your video was really well made and i mostly enjoyed it but its a bit pathetic to just let an artist insult his fanbase and praise him for it

[@bellezai]

When you're constantly asked the same dumb question it's only natural to lose patience. He's only human and he's never been the most patient guy to begin with. Fans got their money back. He, on the other hand, lost money with every show that they cancelled. He didn't do it for shits and giggles.

[@MooSmith]

Hey thanks for a bit of insight. As I said in the video, I couldn’t find the full stream video, I only had a minute of heavily edited footage available to me 😊 I wasn’t praising him, I just like to take a look at situations and possibilities at both ends ESPECIALLY when all the information isn’t available to me! 😊 thank you for the love on the video. That’s wild that it was just a curious Q that lead to all that 😰

[@VestalisDE]

@@MooSmithactually that is quite common with Ronnie. People are asking politely and just because he doesn’t like the question or is annoyed, as this question was asked before, he just rants about them. In fact he mostly rants about the people, insulting them personally or for their beliefs. While referring to himself as „favourite singer“ or even god. Even if all the other accusations would be wrong, it shows what a type of a human he is and that he should not be supported. Which is a shame as he is incredibly talented. And I really love the music of FIR. And I am not telling you, you are not allowed to support him, telling anybody such thing is none of my business, but I don’t feel comfortable supporting him anymore after I went to the show in Berlin in 2024. All those arguments about „separate the singer from their music“ are taken down by the production with were all centered about Ronnie. It felt like FIR is not a band it’s just one guy with some locals filling gaps on stage it doesn’t look that empty. 🥲

[@revilerred7440]

@@MooSmith You’re hot and your videos are exceedingly well produced, as well as the audio quality being more than sufficient… you talk too celeritously a bit sometimes to understand though with that accent but your parlance in good overall. Radke is a very capable singer and a good looking man but he’s also an insecure, man baby asshole who can’t take criticism. You paid $175 to see him? You should go on a date with a nude homeless man with no teeth sleeping in an alley instead with that money. You’d have more fun! XD

[@chilibeer3912]

She literally said she didn’t know what set him off and that it might have been an innocent question. That’s glazing?

[@MegsD79]

Ronnie said that the law has changed, the law he was going by was 10 years since the incarceration and that they got word that the laws have changed. I have actually spoken to friends in the UK that have verified this is true. They were disappointed but understood the situation was not Ronnie or the bands fault cuz they had submitted the proper info and things changed fairly recently

[@MooSmith]

Naw that’s such dog timing! 😭😭😭

[@sp00kington]

Another banger! So glad that ACTUAL music fans like yourself are making content. Keep it up please!!

[@attila0323]

For Budapest the tickets were sold out in minutes, and there were already complains about how small the avenue is for them (like the flames are higher than the place itself etc.). I could buy two tickets for me and a friend, but they cancelled the show so we requested a refund (got back the money with no issues though). I've been in that avenue many times and it's really "small" for bigger bands, but it's also not a real building just a huge "tent", which might have been an issue for them as well.

[@iSpike]

Great vid girl. Got my Ticket 🎟️ 11th March 2025 in PERTH WILD WESTERN AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺 @ 62 I’m fkn pumped to see this band. OLD ROCKERS NEVER DIE 🤘🏻👅 Totally bummed Slipknot ain’t coming to the Westside 👎🏻

[@MooSmith]

Hell yeeeee! So hyped you got a show over in Perth, I know it’s more limited than the East coast 😭 Super pumped

[@KevinZ45]

Hey Moo, thanks for making this mini educational video, I really enjoyed it! Also thank you for seeing the issue on both sides, and not being like some other KZbinrs who are just bashing Ronnie to the ground because of this. Also, I believe the reason Ronnie responded to the fan that asked “why was Vienna cancelled” is probably because he has been harassed with the same question millions of times and is used to being crucified on the internet multiple times. Also, btw, don’t worry too much about your swearing, I have heard KZbinrs that cuss FAR more than you and yet they are still around, lmao 😉

[@MooSmith]

Hey! Thank you Kevin!!!! In so glad you enjoyed the vid 🥰 I will have plenty more rolling out this year (should be weekly!!! 🖤) Thank you for the love, I really appreciate it 🫶🏻🫶🏻

[@noahMrkz]

Sad part, best FIR show I’ve ever seen was in Gramercy Theater which is a smaller venue in my city.

[@MooSmith]

Sometimes small shows have the best energy. The pit hits different in the massive stadiums 😭

[@AshApocalyptic]

Hell yea! I love smaller shows personally... When I record my first ep, I'm going to play small shows only! Wooo!!! 🤘🏻💀

[@MaxGreen1031]

Honestly, dude had me there only to try an embarrass me, messed with my microphone on stage to make me sound bad, purposely belittled me, lied about my AP magazine article of me leaving ETF to join FIR and I can honestly say that he is the biggest manipulative narcissist I’ve ever met. There’s so much more I can say, and this comes from knowing the guy for 20+ years.

[@SonGohan-gh1yl]

Also since you’re from there, any underrated Australian bands you recommend? I just discovered Terminal Sleep & Volatile Ways & they’re incredible

[@thememedungeonkeeper]

Wait. A metal band with a bigger fanbase than a pub gig is actually coming to Australia? What wild times we live in. Not that it matters. I can't afford the $3000 it would cost me to travel to see them.

[@MooSmith]

Hahah yeah! 😂 we actually have had a few big ones in the scene over the past few years 🥰🥰

[@JDLR117]

Ronnie: Makes fun of Chris Motionless for canceling shows because he was sick in one of his comment sections Also Ronnie: Cancels show due to "a lack of moisture" 15:58 Actually Ronnie, a lot of people did get mad at Bad Omens for cancelling the Europe tour on the original post, and almost every post that was related to them announcing other dates was met with negativity or other fans sticking up for the band against the fans that were upset (On a side note, Ronnie does also kind of have a point with fans being entitled, I just don't like his attitude towards this issue, or the fact that he can't handle criticism)

[@lightningmonky7674]

That UK poster ad for the tour was actually badass, I love the metal esthetic mixed with a nation's flag, sometimes it's cringe but It looked really cool with Britain's flag

[@niskodlak]

I was in Prague and they played in O2 universum, not O2 arena. O2universum is for aprox 2k ppl but O2arena is for 20k. so its not about small stage. I was very sad when they canceled the second date because I would love to see them twice.

[@MooSmith]

Thank you for that! i was struggling with the language translation on capacities with google! That suckkkks I love the chance to see a show twice in a short period of time, doesn’t happen too often 🥹

[@ShawnWing-t1o]

I feel like people get way too attached to famous people. I like falling in reverse, i listen to them a good amount but at the same time i know ronnie is a horrible human beeing. Lol you can literally watch any video of him and see his huge disconnect from his fans or normal people. But idc what hes loke personaly i still listen to his music. People need to stop acting like these people are their friends and stop caring so much about what someones really like

[@saltedxp]

Great job on this Moo.

[@MooSmith]

Thank you 🖤

[@saltedxp]

@@MooSmith of course!

[@deboraherskine8503]

Yeah, no they would have known well before they announced it, that they weren't getting in. Don't get me wrong, its a known fact that there are backlogs in the visa system. However they would have known, the question is though, or the one that I would like to know... When did his management tell him? Are they strategically stirring the shit from behind the scenes? I think I'm going to petition whoever is in charge of the visa department to disclose the dates the visas were applied for and when they gave their decision. I wonder if I could get them to do that via some freedom of information act request? 😅

[@thisbishamiright]

My personal opinion on the uk tour, as far as I know it doesn’t sound like any research was done by the tour manager to see what laws were in place here which should have been a priority when they were booking venues in the uk but I don’t know much about what the tour team did in terms of making sure that ronnie was able to get in, did Ronnie tell the tour manager about his prison time prior to him coming to the UK? Like there’s a lot of factors involved

[@MooSmith]

Yeah I was thinking that! But I’m sure Ronnie would be aware of the reason he has never played there. just theorising but if I was him and I heard we were going to the UK, my first Q would be ‘and how tf am I getting in’ 😂 makes me think they must of triiiied some sort of special visa Honestly tours have so many moving parts, I like can’t even fathom. So many possibilities 😭 😂

[@AshApocalyptic]

This was years ago before the mass cancellation of shows. But I was at Falling In Reverse right before they were supposed to go on.

[@Ravensikkness]

Tbh I'm always going to be embarrassed to have used to enjoy Falling In Reverse.

The Artists Formerly Known to Show Up to Gigs

[@Lumin1116]

@0:59 the report said he DID harm someone WITH brass knuckles. He plead guilty.

[@Cr0wsMurd3r]

Think it's weird that Ronny got the same amount of time in jail for carrying brass knuckles to an altercation as the dude who brutally murdered my aunt got for murder (well, allegedly the a-hole got out on good behaviour and feeling depressed)... What I am saying is that, the fact that the UK does not let in people who have been sentenced to and served more than 12 months in prison is weird because the sentence one get for a crime and what even is a crime varies hugely around the world. Also, meanwhile the UK has had few problems with letting in a crowd of people with no documentation.

[@jxnikbrhlxc7701]

Tbh I believe that the size of a venue might be an issue just for his ego but not practically, because you can ALWAYS just upgrade the venue. Just like MIW did with Krakow etc. Also what I really didn't like about his response on stream was how full of himself he acted and refused to even make a proper apology. Like dude, those are your fans! And you'd be nowhere if it wasn't for them! Like as a person who goes to many concerts a year, I am aware of how difficult the planning process for a concert is. Like booking an acommodation, buying travelling tickets or just making sure your work manager even lets you go yk.. (not to mention those people were probably looking forward to it for a very very long time, could've even been someone's present or something.) So his negligent approach to this was very upsetting to me and I'm glad I didn't buy tickets for any of his shows, and that's because morally I'm not able to support him. I really do feel bad for the fans tho!

[@thorgrim1989]

So by the old law he would have been aloud in 2024 to come in to the country but then the law changed in 2020 and they now can't full stop! Sucks realy

[@MooSmith]

Ahhhhh noooo :( damn!

[@high_ryze666]

I am also crying in a corner...my favorite band is Bring me the horizon and I live in Canada. I need them to tour here so bad ;-;

[@MooSmith]

Oh nuuu It been a couple years since they have been there aye? 😭 I feel, they sold out here so quick the start of last year, so I completely missed it 😭 I hope they zoom over to ya soon🤞

[@michellephillips3466]

Even if it's not the bands fault there were cancellations he is handling it a bit poorly. This is someone that for the most part doesn't' mind Ronnie trolling people online. I get he's tired of it but he does insert himself in it at times. Also when Noah did cancel due to his mental health sure there were some fans being completely supportive but the mass amounts of comments I saw of people being pissed about it far outweighed the supportive comments same thing just happened with Phil Boseman of WhiteChapel his mental health was not doing well so they had to cancel shows and yes there was some support but so many people in the comments being mad about it. On the topic of people that get pissed over artists cancelling shows over being sick or having vocal issues their voice is their business. Going on tour and singing every night for hours with maybe one day off in between is so strenuous on your vocal chords. I get people get excited to see their favorite artist love but some fans need to be more understanding when cancellations happen.

[@tommypauldavies]

Disclaimer: this is TLDR and I like FIR and had tickets for London. and FIR and Ronnie has a lot of fans that just agree with and love everything he says and does and the man can do no wrong.... but unfortunately thats far from the truth. The issue here is unprofessionalism nobody should be selling out or even announcing a tour before they have made sure they are able to even visit the country first. laws changing isn't uncommon and this is a detail that directly effects Ronnie and should have been looked over first. the law changed in 2020 and the tour was organised, booked and announced in 2024 so its not as though this slipped under the carpet last second and demonstrates a lack of basic due diligence. I think the reason this has happened is arrogance, I believe Ronnie has let these big arena shows go to his head... it was all he spoke about on social media for months and I think he thought he would turn up in the uk and say "look guys, im a big deal ive sold out all the arenas" and the guy looked at him and said I don't have a F**king clue who you are, but you have served time in prison abroad... automatic DECLINE and sent him on his merry way. Now is this Ronnie, his team, both ? who knows but this entire tour across uk and Europe has been managed at an amateur level at best with massive logistic and visa issues that have caused fans to lose money on travel, hotels, trains, planes and currently the tour in the uk is "postponed" ? well it isnt is it,.. its cancelled the law is not going to change to accommodate essentially a nobody the queen HERSELF had to allow snoop dog into the country. The Australia tour is all but certain to be cancelled given they have even stricter rules than the uk when it comes to criminals getting a visa, who will he blame that time ? because any sane person after being told to do one from the uk would get straight on making sure the visa is sorted for Australia NOW so they can cancel the tour in good time if they have to instead of a week before.

Haha Brissy girl! I played at the Triffid and The Zoo (before they closed down) And they were great Venues! Sounded amazing.

[@MooSmith]

Heeey!!! So sick! I love the triffid, it’s my fave 🥹 I only went to the Zoo once but maybe I’ll get another chance since the ‘zoo doors’ are open again now as crowbar and I hear it’s actually pretty good!!

[@JesseJapan]

@ Oh what!? The Crowbar must’ve bought the venue then as we also played at the Crowbar a few times and it wasn’t at The Zoo venue at the time haha. Interesting. Crowbar must’ve decided to expand. I’ve lived in Japan for the last 5 years, so I’m out of the loop with the Brissy venue scene. Last I played, The Tempo was still one of the biggest venues at the time. Supposedly that shut down a while ago also? We also played at The Tivoli a few times, though that’s not really Brisbane, but that is a super awesome Venue!

[@israel4506]

Its hard you know, umm. Yes he has a good voice, and he does play amazing shows. Its just that the members do change and the sound is hardly consistent. Its very much on the pop side of metal, he always was. In essence how the pop punk scene is. So in short what makes a band unique is its sound, regardless of the singer its just very grand falling in reverse. I think they need to rediscover themselves as an identity in an album. Just a few songs to say this is who we are.. now. where we are now. Because I am kind of lost in the saga.

[@SkilletTRO]

That's kind of the issue with him creatively- dude doesn't really have a direction. He hasn't grown really. He's doing the same stuff he was doing in 2010, just slightly different. I stanned the guy hard in ETF and even while he was in prison. TDIMIY was bad but I listened to it on repeat anyway. Then the guy just started being a raging dickhead and I couldn't justify it anymore. Nowadays I check in and I'm like 'okay, same stuff but he's more of a dick and better production quality" lol.
