Jake Pitts of Black Veil Brides Talks Bullying in Interview with Examiner.com

Examiner.com posted an interview with guitarist Jake Pitts of Black Veil Brides recently where he was asked about their fan base and problems that they go through. Check out what he had to say below as well as you can read the entire interview here.

Your fans are so passionate and so loyal. When you say that they tell you their problems, what are they going through?

A lot of them are being bullied. I tell them that you have to find something in yourself, find something you’re passionate about — for me, it was the guitar — and spend your time on that. Find something that will get you through. Middle school and high school, once you’re out and away from it, your life is so much different. The kids that get picked on and bullied are the ones that become successful. They’re talented. Look at us. We were bullied. You look the bullies up on Facebook and they’re working 9 to 5 jobs and they’re not happy; that’s what I’ve seen with the people I grew up with. It seems that the kids who get bullied do something great with their lives
