Billy Ray Cyrus was hit with brutal tech issues during his performance at the Liberty Ball to celebrate Trump’s inauguration — and yeah, it was a total cringe-fest.
It all went down Monday night, and Billy was already on the struggle bus — rocking a hoarse voice, no band, and attempting an a cappella version of Lil Nas X‘s “Old Town Road” … yeah, the one he featured on.
It was already heading toward an epic fail, and Billy seemed to know it — trying to hype up the crowd to sing along. But then … dun, dun, dun — his guitar cut out.
Billy, clearly desperate, pled with the backstage crew, “Is anybody awake? Where’s everybody at? Is anyone back there? Can somebody turn my guitar back on?” — but no luck.
BRC tried to spin it, though, pointing out Carrie Underwood had tech issues earlier too. Using it as a life lesson, he told the crowd … “In life, when you have technical difficulties, you just gotta keep going. Or as President Trump would say, ‘You gotta fight!'”
He then went for an a cappella take on 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.
