At a recent show in Winnipeg, Canada, Origin brought a blind fan on stage to do some guest vocals and for his first ever stage dive! It’s always great to see the metal community come together like this. It serves as a wonderful reminder of what there is to love about metalheads through all the negativity and bullshit. You can watch a video of the stage dive itself down below. The band also had the following to say:
“Origins first ever blind stage diver! We met the gentleman that is on stage with us in this video earlier in the night at a show in Winnipeg, MB. He was rocking out hard front row during our set, and far be it from us to let something like being blind stop you from your first stage dive experience! we’ve seen young kids, people in wheelchairs, all types of people who might need an extra hand to enjoy a little crowdsurfing be taken care of safely and respectfully by their metal friends and family over the years. just goes to show how awesome this music and its fans really are! Drop not, lest yee be dropped! #hailspace”
