Alex
Gaskarth is one of the strongest people I
know. You may see him as just another rock star but in reality
he is just a man who lost his brother to suicide but picked
himself up and did some good with his life. It would have been
a lot easier for him to give up on everything and give in to
grief but no. I bet wherever his brother is now, he's the
proudest brother ever. On top of all this, Alex suffers from
severe anxiety, so much so that he has had to run off stage
mid-song because everything became too much for him. Alex is a
truly inspirational character; he's had to dig through all
the heart-ache to achieve what he has. He deserves the up-most
respect.
