Guy Gets Selfie With Converge Singer Mid-Show, Clearly Does Not 'Get' Converge

Serious band full of serious people is subjected to selfie culture, live onstage.

January 29, 2018

Metalsucks.net reports that at a recent Converge show in Berkeley, CA, some silly fella got onstage and demanded that Converge frontman and well known quite-serious-performer-famously-not-known-for-lighthearted-onstage-banter Jacob Bannon be part of his selfie.

Jake takes it like a champ, but the look of resigned bemusement on his face says it all.

Silly boy:

Does anyone else… *whisper it*… kind of want to see how the selfie came out?
