Kevin Lyman responded to Welch’s comment, bringing up a question of his own.

“I would ask Brian ‘Head’ Welch, if an opening act trashed Korn‘s gear on stage, how long they would be kept on the tour? Just wondering.”

Welch responded to Lyman’s tweet, stating that he “respectfully disagreed” with the outcome.
