Trivium frontman Matt Heafy had an amusing slip of the tongue at one of his band’s recent concerts, essentially asking the audience to hold up sex toys during the show.
The verbal slip came during Trivium’s Boston show at the MGM Music Hall at Fenway on Friday night (May 2nd), when Heafy told the crowd, “Literally light us up with your cellphone lights, your flashlights, your lighters, your fleshlights … fleshlights? [laughter], I meant flashlights!” With the crowd laughing, as well, Heafy added, “I hope someone recorded that.”
Someone indeed recorded it, and Heafy posted the video on his X/Twitter account the next day (watch below), writing (with tongue firmly planted in cheek), “I’d like to formally apologize for what I said last night on stage. I can and will do better.”
For those not in the know, a fleshlight is … ah, just look it up.
Trivium are currently in the midst of a co-headlining North American tour with Bullet for My Valentine. The outing runs through a May 18th show in Raleigh, North Carolina, with tickets to the upcoming shows available here.
