I wanna know what love is.

You're watching Young Hollywood.

Jess K here at the Sunset Strip Music Festival and the last time we interviewed Black Veil Brides Ashley was a little quiet.

So we're going to go check him out and see what he has to say this time.

Hello, Jess K here with Black Veil Brides.

And I think we should start the interview off the way the other one left off at, which is I have an idea.

I have an idea.

I don't curse.

I go to church on Sundays.

Are you on the whiskey today?

I'm cool, but like I said earlier, I'm on the whiskey.

I'm on No.

I don't drink.

I don't do anything bad.

I feel like this interview is like complete 360 because now I feel like your band members peer pressure you into being bad.

Yeah, they do all the time.

They always peer pressure me.

Those guys, those crazy guys.

Yeah.

They just get I'm so innocent.

I'm so innocent, man.

Yeah.

They're always like want me to do bad stuff and I'm just like not about it.

You guys just played here and I saw you and it was amazing.

You guys like got everybody pumped up.

I'm from Tennessee.

What's cool for us is we're from Hollywood and like as a young band and like previous bands and Black Veil Brides, we all grew up on the Strip.

We all played all these clubs and I remember like playing like the Whisky in front of like 20 people and then we ended up selling it out like two nights in a row, you know, and we like grew out of the Whisky and we're playing like the other big venues down the street and it's cool.

Yeah.

We're all from the Midwest.

We're all transplants from the Midwest.

Like all of Black Veil Brides.

Really?

We're all from Ohio.

I'm from Missouri.

We have Iowa.

You're from Missouri?

I grew up in Missouri my whole life.

A small town called Berger of 200 people.

That's where I grew up.

Yeah, I don't know.

I grew up like riding horses and motorcycles and stuff and that's me.

And then I saw, then I saw Welcome to the Jungle and I said that's where I want to go, man.

When you're like screw Donway and I want to be like this.

Yeah.

I'm doing outlaw and country and that's what, you know, like old country is so rock and roll to me.

I love old country.

And so like coming here like our band, I mean in cowboy boots and western wear and you know, bling and stuff.

And so that's that's part of me and I bring to a rock and roll aspect and a metal aspect.

It's cool.

Kids come to our shows like dressed like their favorite member.

It's awesome.

I like that.

No, rock and roll.

Are you guys going to like walk around and catch you with the other bands?

Look at her crazy.

Hey you.

What?

Look at your crazy.

You once again.

This Yeah, this is Hollywood.

This is Hollywood.

Look at this.

Oh, she's going to sing.

Audition.

Oh my gosh.

Every time you go away, you take a piece of me with you.

I wanna know what love is.

Party like a rock star.

Party like a rock star.

Party like a rock star.

Are you love Halloween?

Oh, you coming in pouncing like a cat.

Look at you.

All right.

Now I also want to ask you like what is like the like three things that you would tell your fans?

Weird stuff you don't know about me?

Yeah.

I don't I don't even know.

I don't know.

My favorite I don't know.

My I love I love Dwight Yoakam.

Is that is that something?

Um Yes.

That is.

I love now I'm trying to think about food.

I love creme brulee.

I'm actually really shy.

Oh, sir, can we go to a hotel room and eat creme brulee and listen to Dwight Yoakam?

Yes.

I would love that.

Hotels, creme brulee, champagne, Dwight no, Dwight our place and Dwight Yoakam sounds amazing to me.
