Asking Alexandria Stars Recall Destructive Antics
. ![]()
(Metal Hammer) Asking Alexandria's Ben Bruce recalls that he "had a great time" smashing a hotel in Argentina. The guitarist narrowly avoided arrest when their flight home from tour was grounded - after days of drinking, smoking and partying resulted in them "destroying" the floor they were staying on. Bruce tells Rocksound: "My most destructive one was when we were in Argentina and we took out Chelsea Grin and Blessthefall. We had the whole floor of the hotel and we just decided, 'F*** it, it's our floor', and we were smoking, drinking, partying. We were there for days. "By the end of it everything was smashed up. I went into Chelsea Grin's room and decided to throw their flat screen TV across the room and smashed it. I had a great time. "Woke up the next day and went downstairs to the reception and they went, 'You've destroyed our hotel.' Our tour manager went, 'Don't worry, here's the credit card,' standard. They said, 'No, we don't want your money. We want punishment.'" Bruce says the manager denied the staff's request and the group quickly left to catch their flight home - but they realized something was amiss when the plane wasn't taking off. Read more here.
