Wavves Apologizes
Written by willshoob on Saturday, 30 of May , 2009 at 9:01 am
If you haven’t been on the blogs in the past few days, Wavves had a bit of a meltdown, with lead singer/songwriter Nathan Williams absolutely freaking out at the Primavera Sound Festival in Barcelona. He got beer poured on his head by his drummer, and everyone threw bottles at him. He later canceled his next show, and just posted an apology on his website, Ghost Ramp. Here’s his response to all the events that transpired.
I think in the back of my head I knew I wasn’t exactly mentally healthy enough to continue to tour the way I have been since February. Honest truth is this has all happened so fast and I feel like the weight of it has been building for months now with what seems like a never ending touring and press schedule which includes absolutely zero time to myself. I’m sorry to everyone who has put effort into this and to everyone who supported me. Mixing ecstasy valium and xanax before having to play in front of thousands of people was one of the more poor decisions I’ve made(duh) and I realize my drinking has been a problem now for a good period of time. Nothing else I can do but apologize to everyone that has been affected by my poor decision making. I made a mistake. Not the first mistake I’ve made and it for sure wont be the last. I’m human. Don’t know why I chose the biggest platform I could imagine to lose my shit, but that’s life. You live and you learn.
If anyone has video footage of the show, please send it.
