Crazy Town singers filmed beating each other up after on-stage row
Crazy Town singers Bobby Reeves and Seth Binzer got into a fistfight after their rocky show in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina at the weekend.
The altercation occurred after lead singer Binzer, also known as Shifty Shellshock, failed to arrive on stage until the end of the show – leaving co-vocalist Reeves to fill in for the majority of the gig on Sunday (April 23).
According to fan-filmed clips of the show, Reeves struggled to handle frontman duties – often forgetting lyrics to songs and occasionally berating Binzer for his absence.
Once Binzer did arrive toward the end of the set, the two engaged in a heated argument which led to the two ultimately getting physical. He accused Reeves of stealing money and Reeves began threatening members of Binzer’s family.

Reeves took to social media to share a video of his battered face, telling followers: “Me and Shifty got into a little scuffle but it’s all good, we’re brothers.” He then showed his black eye and swollen face claiming its “no big deal” ending the video with “love ya’ll and love shifty too.”
This is not the first time the band have run into a mishap. At a previous gig in Jacksonville, Florida, Binzer ended up kicking a monitor off the stage while complaining that he could not hear his vocals. A similar incident happened earlier this year at a different show.
Crazy Town rose to popularity in 2001 with their Number One hit ‘Butterfly’.
Last year, the band posted a lengthy social media rant criticising their former drummer, Roland Banks. After joining Crazy Town in 2017, Banks left the band earlier that year following a fallout with Binzer.
“So this fucking poor excuse for a drummer was only ever in [Crazy Town] because he’s a cocain dealer,” the post read. “He played like he was loyal but gossips and creates drama like a child he also tried to use crazytown as a catalyst [to] promote and launch his own solo unlistenable music.”
