(Classic Rock) Lamb of God guitarist Willie Adler has spoken out after the band faced a backlash for creating a donation fund for frontman Randy Blythe.He says they acted after being inundated with offers of help for the musician, who's in jail in the Czech Republic over the death of fan Daniel Nosek two years ago – even though bail has been posted and video evidence appears to make it clear he wasn't involved.
"We are by no means requesting charity, nor are we demanding money from our fans," Adler says. "We have received dozens upon dozens of requests from supporters wanting to help in any way possible. This was a direct response to that, in order to give fans a voice in all of this – if they choose to do so.
"By no means are we trying to make a dime off this. We live for our fans and would never attempt to profit off them. This is purely a response to those that reached out wanting to help. more on this story
