Tyler did tell us, however, that the trio hit it off right away, despite having never met before. The band is set to take the stage with A$AP Rocky Sunday night - and that's about all we can tell you for now (sorry!). "Then probably a year after I graduated I was in the airport flying to Amsterdam for a festival there and I was coming out of the bathroom and he walked in." When his principal asked what he was doing at the airport, Dun said: "I'm doing the rock and roll thing like you told me to."Īnd that was BEFORE the guys were on the docket to play the VMAs. he told me, 'You can be rock and roll after high school,'" Dun said. "The first day of my senior year my principal came to me and told me that I needed to cut my hair. The band comes from Columbus, Ohio, and Vela hails from a small town in Texas. "It's interesting because a lot of people that we'll come in contact with come from a similar place," Dun told us. Case in point: Drummer Josh Dun recently called up teen Veronica Vela, whose principal threatened to ban her from graduation due to her Twenty One Pilots-inspired hair. And, despite sounding kind of terrifying, the concept has been comforting to fans - as have the guys, who are all about staying true to who you are.
If you haven't heard the band's newest record (go listen now), the character of Blurryface is basically a personification of insecurities - and Joseph often represents him on stage by donning black paint on his neck and hands. I want people to hear what we're trying to say" "The record Blurryface kind of conquers an issue with certain insecurities and I think that the people who have listened to the record and really kind of bought into what we're trying to say - they've really resonated with some of the content," lead singer Tyler Joseph told MTV News backstage at the VMAs. Twenty One Pilots are primed to take the stage at the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards - to much fan excitement - and they're doing it for the Blurryface in all of us.
