What a dude.
While on tour in Europe over the weekend, Trivium frontman Matt Heafy temporarily switched his role as onstage performer to security staff, jumping down to the crowd and catching a crowdsurfer.
"Security was actually doing great tonight, there were just so many crowdsurfers… so I jumped down to catch a dude… then jumped right back into the song!" he tweeted, while on Twitch he wrote: "I jumped off stage and caught a crowdsurfer and jumped right back and got my solo. Haha. Anyone who ever says we don’t care about our fans need to watch this."
