August Burns Red had to be rescued by fire services after they were stuck in an elevator on the way to the Grammy Awards on Monday night.
The LA Fire Department were called out to free the band and their entourage after the lift malfunctioned hours before the show. And bassist Dustin Davidson reveals they were then given a ride to the ceremony in a fire truck.
He said: “Thank you to the LA Fire Department for getting us out so quickly. Another shout out for giving us a ride on their truck to the red carpet.
“While we didn’t win the Grammy, I am still honoured to be nominated. Like Schwarzenegger in Terminator, we’ll be back.”
The metalcore outfit were nominated alongside Ghost, Slipknot, Lamb Of God and Sevendust in the Best Metal Performance category. Ghost took home the trophy for their track Cirice.
