Billy Ray Cyrus Trump’s speech at the Liberty Ball to celebrate his inauguration was plagued by severe technology issues, and yes, it was a total rocking celebration.
It all went down on Monday night, and Billy was already on the fight bus, hoarse, with no band, trying out an a cappella version. Lil Nas X:“Old Town Road” … yes, the one he featured in.
It was already heading for an epic fail, and Billy seemed to know it as he tried to get the crowd to sing along. But then … dan, dan, dan – his guitar cut out.
Billy, clearly desperate, pleaded with the backstage crew. “Anyone awake, where’s everyone back? Can someone turn my guitar back on?”, no luck.
BRC tried to spin it though by pointing out Carrie Underwood had technological problems earlier too. Using it as a life lesson, he told the crowd… “In life, when you have technical difficulties, you just have to keep going. Or as President Trump would say, “You gotta fight.”
He then went into his 1992 hit, “Achy Breaky Heart.” — but let’s be real, the whole thing was a hot mess, and fans online wasted no time roasting it, calling it downright embarrassing.
