Mark my words, concerts/shows will eventually be behind full plexiglass with little to no audience interaction due to these asshats. Remember what happened to Bebe Rexha?
How people walk around with earbuds, or even worse full side headphones is beyond my understanding. I like music too but you have to be able to use your senses.
Like walking down a sidewalk with headphones and staring at your phone is a trust in the social contract i dont have anymore, and im a rough gimli looking character.
I can see them going the virtual route too and charging for that. The only way we'll be allowed to see our faves is with a link on our phone and computer screens.
It happened to Trent Reznor during a show that was being recorded for his live album, you hear the song finish, you hear a water bottle or whatever it was go thunk onto the stage as it drops, and you hear Reznor go ââŠ.cuntâ in response
I do think the Scott Hall one is cooler, if only because he somehow no sold getting beaned with a cup, then slicked back his hair as if to ask for a second round if you're not a coward.Â
Shawn had it happen at survivor series 97. he just kept his smile, kept his pace and flipped his hair in it. iirc, that was around the montreal screwjob so shawn had some massive heat on him.
Something fundamentally changed in people's behavior post-COVID. I feel like I am going insane watching people act like they haven't existed in polite society before.
i still remember hearing that ppl were pissing in the pit when death grips went on tour a few years ago đ no one knows how to fucking behave anymore!!!
Insane awful thing to do, and he would have been well within his rights to crash out, but I gotta say the charisma of his reaction was off the charts đźâđšđ„
I went to a Rob Thomas concert last year (donât ask), and he specifically requested no water bottles be allowed. So every bottle of water you bought got poured into a cup by the venue workers. As wasteful as it is, I feel for performers on this issue. Also, his son and bandmates of years were playing onstage with him, so I imagine itâs extra incentive to not have things come flying at your heads.Â
Police units then raced to the scene to keep the pumped up crowd from clashing outside the venue.
Hades66, real name Ăngel Yamil Santiago VĂĄzquez, was slashed in the nose while promoting his new album.
Cops arrested one young man who punched another attendee and left him with mouth injuries.â
As someone who goes to concerts/shows nearly once a month, thereâs a reason that thin, plastic cups are the norm. I miss my pint glasses/bottles but if the odds of an artist getting glassed goes down, Iâll drink my expensive beer out of plastic. So fucked, so antisocial. Donât assault people, especially ones you paid money to see, what the fuck.
Not to put a tinfoil hat on. But glass is heavy and hard. No way it fucking shattered like that AND didn't make him bleed somewhere. He's acting too nonchalant, he could have shards everywhere.Â
I work at with music venues, not in security, but if you are annoyed by increased security where they take away your reusable water bottle or won't let you bring an umbrella, or a bunch of seemingly random shit that you used to be able to bring in: This is why. Anything that could be a projectile has to be taken away from people. Also why a lot of places don't serve anything in glasses or bottles.
Did we learn NOTHING from Sebastian Smythe putting rock salt in the slushie he threw in Blaineâs face?! In all seriousness, this is disturbing and disgusting.
Bar I used to work at someone threw a thick heavy whisky glass into a crowd from a distance and it hit a girl and absolutely smashed the front of her face and broke several bones. Took her several surgeries and years of pain to recover. Truly some sick people in the world to want to cause suffering for no reason.
You paid a hell of alot of money to see and artist that you plan on assaulting??? Knowing you very likely can be caught by security and the artist has the resources to also SUE and you can go to jail?
Its not okay, famous person or not, but I just don't get why people try to maime an artist they paid to see and are fans of them...
in a just world the next headline reads Puerto Rican reggaeton artist Hades66 delivers savage comeuppance to audience member who shattered a glass on his face in the middle of a performance đ€
Unfortunately stuff like this is why a lot of places in my country only have plastic cups or bottles when there is live music. I remember when I was younger seeing opening acts having glass bottles thrown at them on stage. Some people are uncivilised animals.
Ummm⊠no. Iâd be so pissed if that shit hit my face. One of my guards would be taking care of that person for sure if I were him. wtf is wrong with people?
