Five Finger Death Punch played a joke on fans over the weekend at their show in Noblesville, Indiana.
The band kicked off the performance with Lift Me Up - but rather than frontman Ivan Moody delivering the vocals, it was Bad Wolves singer Tommy Vext who appeared onstage – much to the surprise of the crowd.
Tommy Vext, who stood in for Ivan Moody for a run of live dates with 5FDP when Moody was in rehab in 2017, was soon joined by the band’s regular vocalist, with guitarist Zoltan Bathory posting a clip of the performance on Twitter.
He said: “So tonight when the curtain dropped, we had Tommy Vext standing onstage instead of Ivan. It was funny as hell – all the confused faces thinking in unison, ‘Oh no. Here we go again.’ Then Ivan ran out and sang the song with Tommy. #5FDPrank.”
