Korn’s Brian “Head” Welch responded with his opinion on the matter, sharing that Islander’s removal from the tour was lame.
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.
No offense, wasn’t blaming you… didn’t even know if Warped kicked em off, or the stage sponsor.
I see your point, but still respectfully disagree w/outcome.@VansWarpedTour bands are chaotic, there should have been back up gear 🥁🎸LOL
Thanks for all the years!
