A man in a banana costume has sparked discourse after Akil Godsey, frontman of the Baltimore hardcore band End It, instructed the audience to remove his outfit during a recent show.<\/p>\n
The incident occurred at the Lithuanian House in Toronto on Friday (June 5). Godsey called the man in the banana costume up to the front of the stage, asking him, \u201c f**k are you doing, my n****?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou don’t get rewarded for doing that shit,\u201d he continued. \u201cHe wanted the attention, and now he has it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Someone else in the band can be heard chiming in, \u201cAnd now, everyone here has to kill you.\u201d<\/p>\n
