Gym Class Heroes Frontman Apologizes To Fans For Recent Arrest

July 8, 2008
Gym Class Heroes Frontman Apologizes To Fans For Recent ArrestGym Class Heroes frontman Travis McCoy apologized to fans attending Warped Tour in Dallas for his recent altercation with a fan.

McCoy stated on stage, "It was uncalled for and out of hand...if you are tired of ignorant people put your hands up like that," and encouraged fans to hold up the peace sign. The band then proceeded to perform the track 'Peace Sign' from their upcoming album 'The Quilt'.

The altercation with the fan happened in St. Louis when a member of the audience called McCoy a "fucking ignorant nigger" at the beginning of the band's set.

McCoy was charged with one count of third degree assault for the altercation.
