Mastodon’s Brent Hinds used one hell of a shock-value marketing ploy to get everyone to see tonight’s (8th) movie premiere of the Ben Weinstein film Hellbound, which will be screened at 10PM at the Plaza Theatre in Atlanta, GA. The vocalist/guitarist who laid down a few riffs for the film’s musical score, revealed he missed attending the Grammys award ceremony from this past January due to being a victim in a hit and run while riding his motorcycle.
Hinds explained, via Instagram:
“To all the people that think that this is recent ..or funny? please stop the stupid fucking comments ..I put the post up to pimp my “friends”movie..Go see this movie..!!! And go fuck your self’s ..🖕🏿I was lucky enough to live through playing a Lil bit a guitar on the sound track on January 23, 2018 and that’s why I couldn’t attend the Grammy’s (because I was involved in a hit and run on my motorcycle that ended me up in 🐎 pistola)..that i got absolutely NO shout out from my best friends/band mates💔 ..I know they love me and just be havin stupid nervousness,but still ! Here is a few photos of the results 😂 it’s opnening at @plazaatlanta tonight ! Made by Ben Weinstein”
Despite how much time has passed, we are relieved to know Hinds is doing well. For those who are in the Atlanta area should check out tonight’s premiere, if it hasn’t sold out yet.
