Upon A Burning Body frontman, Danny Leal, hasn’t really been known lately for having the best press. Last year before the release of their latest album The World Is My Enemy Now, (a very aptly named titled by the way), Danny and the rest of the band took to Twitter to fake his own kidnapping in attempt to promote that album. Just earlier this year, Leal was allegedly involved in a physical altercation with former GWAR frontwoman, Vulvatron.
Leal has now taken to the band’s official Facebook page to address fans about how he is now living a better lifestyle. Read the entire statement now below.
“I’m not a rockstar. But no matter what you do people will still look for a way to portray you in a bad light. Sometimes I might stay in the van because I’m not having a good day and don’t want to give off any negative vibes.. but people will immediately put the stamp on it.. “oh he’s being an asshole. douche.” But its not like that at all. I’ve had my fun and crazy times back in the day, but right now I’m trying to center myself with a healthier lifestyle and separate myself from negativity or drama. I’ve adopted the pescatarian style of eating, picked up some coloring books, and haven’t had a drink on this tour. Right now I’m just trying to take care of my wife and kid with this great gift that I’ve been given the opportunity to do.”
