After the phone incident at Bebe Rexha’s concert, there seems to be this snowball effect of events where concertgoers forget how to act in public. Whether it’s bad or good - clout goblins are gonna look for any drop of attention they can get so they can post about it on social media. Especially if it's recognition from their favorite artist. “Fans” are embarrassing themselves at concerts just so their idol will give them the time of day. What better way to get their attention in a sea of faceless people than by attacking them. We’ve had Ava Max, Pink, Harry Styles, and Nmixx that had to deal with inappropriate behavior at live events. When The Chronically Online Attend Concerts #edvasian
Pink's "what the fuuuuuuck" while watching that cheese wheel getting passed to her is so funny
When life hands you a wheel of Brie instead of lemons 😂
As a French girl, I absolutely approve of this gift 😂
If I was her I would have probably peed my pants laughing 😂
Do you think she ate it? I don’t think I’d eat anything randomly given to me by a stranger. All of that for it to be possibly thrown in the trash for safety reasons.
@@sunnyandthechlo Yeah, that. While I think it's a funny gift and the idea is harmless, I'm also pretty sure they had to throw it out. She's not going to eat anything that's not tightly sealed (and even then - questionable), so that's a lot of money and food wasted. :(
That person who put their baby on stage went to multiple other concerts and did the same thing! I can’t believe she is willing to sacrifice her own baby (since it’s hearing is probably severely damaged from all the concerts and it could easily get stepped on or squished when the idols are dancing) for 5 seconds of attention from a few kpop idols. It should not be their job to take care of and worry about your own damn baby while they are trying to put on a show!
there really should be an age limit for crap like this. like that's your freaking CHILD! then again, there are some people who just shouldn't be parents at all.
I'm astonished they even still have their baby. That seems like it would count as child endangerment.
The baby shouldn't even be allowed in the venue wtf
Why weren't some form of child services involved? What the hell 💀
I'd step on her if I see her. She must be sick in her head.
I will never understand why anyone would think it's fine to throw objects at these artists. They're not objects purely for entertainment they're human beings who can get seriously injured. Wouldnt you feel guilty being the one who injured your favorite artist?!
and what if they get hurt bad enough they have to stop the show or cancel other shows on the tour... like why the hell would you do something that could result in injury like that? i just don't get it. like what is wrong with people. bringing something like cheese i can understand (ok, maybe not, but it's harmless). so is tossing things ON the stage, as long as they're small things the artist won't trip over or whatever (like how people used to throw their bras on stage back in the day). but i just CANNOT understand throwing things AT artists.
and aren't you at their concert because you like them and their music? why would you ever throw something that could hurt them at a person you LIKE? make it make sense
mental non sense honestly. there should be zero tolerance and super high fines for this BS
@@ivania321 screw fines. singers should be allowed to fully press charges. They're there to perform, not to get assaulted. and the people throwing shit and injuring the artists, they should not only be immediately removed from the venue, but banned for life, and then they should have to face criminal charges. people need to held accountable. that's the only way they'll learn.
No, they would think "whenever they see that scar on their face, they will remember me 😍🥰" because they're weird.
Reminds me of when Brendon from Panic At The Disco got bottled when performing in the UK. As a Brit, I'm still ashamed 💀
I would like to mention that people used to throw lit fireworks on stage in the 60s. I also found some old geocities site where there was a bunch of transcripts of old fan letters from the 60s to The Monkees and some of the fans were telling them how to dress and cut their hair and stuff and one twelve year old sent her hair in her letter to them. I think people have always been kind of crazy, the internet has just amplified it.
we see the crazy way more but yes it’s always been there
I mean a 12yo gets a pass - she's 12, it's impossible to not be unhinged at that age and it's not like she sent them anthrax.
people used to send presents to serial killers so i’m not surprised.
there was also the ozborne . . . live bat situation
@@anhelaanhela4996 yeah I was more referring to how people act like kids on social media going crazy with stan culture is new
@@eternallustformedusa4844 I feel like there’s definitely still people sending presents to serial killers given the popularity of true crime
The man is nearly 30 effing years old! He can't say 'I was just following a trend' . This is assault.
Hes 30? I seriously thought he was over 45.
@@decoraqueena6413 They said his age in the news report. (≧▽≦)
And since when following a trend is excuse for anything ? Since I was a kid and asked my mom to do something cause 'everyone was doing it' she always said 'you are not everyone', it's not just cause other crazy people are doing something that everyone should do the same crazy thing, stupid is stupid, no matter who is doing it.
@@guilhermenovo8967 That's what I'm saying (≧▽≦) I'd get the "Well if your friends jumped off a bridge, would you??" (I was born in 80)
"If I had a bungee cord, I would!"
But I had this talk with my kid as she was growing up. Especially with kids doing stupid shit that is essentially suicide. Don't eat shit you're not supposed to. Don't choke yourself out! I feel like this should be common sense, but these days...

Why is she even allowed to bring her baby!? His poor ears!!! Why doesn’t he at least have ear protection!? Also, sh*t happens at concerts! What if someone mows you over and you drop him!? Well clearly you don’t care if you’re willing to THROW him on stage!!
And you can see that the girl (her name is Kyujin from the K-pop girl group NMIXX) she is 17 years old and did such a good job handing the stressful situation passing the baby to the parent. You can tell she was so scared and nervous. I don’t know why on earth someone would bring a baby to a concert, that so dangerous for the baby’s safety.
@@wonderlucky1912 Yeah, she behaved wonderfully in such a crazy situation, in her place I would panic the hell out.
Child abuse
@@nobodythenobody9779 agreed
Came here expecting someone to be defending the abuse.
Gladly mistaken
The wheel of cheese was funny. Back when Paramore was like, nobody, (they were playing SIDE STAGE at an already small venue on the Riot release tour) I saw someone fight up to the front to give Hailey a box of fortune cookies as, I assume, some kind of good luck gesture and it was very cute.
I've never met an artist who is mad about chaotic good gifts at concerts as long as you don't throw them.
Food isn't always a great thing to give, though, as unfortunately there are some real weird people out there and it's hard to be certain someone didn't tamper with it.
@@bishielurfer True but, I mean, even if they don't eat it I'm sure they won't be mad about it if it's presented nicely. I'd rather get food that goes to waste than fuckin ASHES or whatever tf is going on in some of these. 💀💀💀
At least the thought is nice. 🤷 Or, you know, at WORST inexplicably weird but totally harmless and possibly funny. 😂🧀
exactly. as long as it isn't something concerning, like a baby or your mom's ashes, and you don't throw it, artists usually find it funny. i haven't personally been to a dreamcatcher concert, but their lightstick is extendable and it gets extremely tall, so there's a bunch of videos of people using it to deliver funny hats and other props like that to the girls. its funny and harmless, and i wish people would just stick to funny and harmless. i wouldn't advise pink to eat the cheese, but the fact that it travelled to the stage and was delivered harmelessly is objectively really funny.
Yes it's fine to gift an artist a baby but don't throw the baby! No artists wants damaged goods 😔
Seriously tho don't bring a baby to a non-baby concert, their ears aren't done yet to handle loud noises.
@@momomomo__ I love the Dreamcatcher lightsticks and all the sheneanigans people been doing with them 🤣
The Pink fans are older so I'm guessing they remember old school concert etiquette. Also I think the cheese was hilarious (not so much the ashes....)
old school? do you guys mean like 4-7 years ago? i used to attend concerts regularly, this became an issue after 2020, although it was getting hairy slowly before that. but the quarantine stuff put us over the edge with not knowing how to behave. i mean im 30 but it seems like anyone under 27 is a risk to act like an asshole at a concert now and i dont even know if its completely their fault
I havent been to a concert in a long time but when I did up front people would push each other all the time... intentionally
@@seroquelchamber the man who hit Bebe Rhexa was 27, so no its not as limited as you think.
@@ccss9827 he's 27? he looked 50
@@seroquelchamberthis has been a problem from a LONG ass time the internet only amplified it
I went to see Bowling for Soup a few years back. Someone chucked their phone at the lead singer and hit him in the face. I’m guessing the guy was hoping none noticed it was him, but when the band asked who it was, everyone around the guy stepped away and pointed at him. He shrank down and tried to make himself as small as possible, BfS spent the rest of the gig taking the piss out of him. His phone was smashed to bits by the bass player.
@@sinahaase9923 that’s exactly the response you should get for assaulting someone just trying to do their job and make people happy. the equal response would have been throwing something similarly hard or heavy right back. they gave that person grace.
@@sinahaase9923 He could have lost an eye, all cause someone thought it was ok to throw a lump of plastic and glass at his face. Forget chucking him out, I’d be pressing charges for ABH.
The perfect way to deal with it, Social pressure.
Good.
@@sinahaase9923 nah. fuck around and find out. there are thousands of phones out there, there is only one of your own face.
I think we should also address the sexual harassment performers face on stage. It's so prevalent to hear people calling performers "mommy/daddy", telling them very graphically inappropriate things, and it's just disgusting. We see it in the comments of people's videos all the time as well. I think about Clairo, after performing Blouse (a song about the sexualization she's faced), having a girl scream "YOU'RE SO HOT!" afterward. She looked like she was going to cry.
It’s called false worship. You worship a god, not a human. Like when the girls tossed bras or panties back in the day.
I’m not a performer but I have a different account that has a bit of subscribers, I have gone through sexual harassment and mental abuse as well, especially by “fans” and “friends”
I agree, sometimes fans are crazy
So much sexual harassment that I quit my other account and I’m now using a new one
I see that happen to Mitski as well! And she once told a concert goer “I’m nobody’s mother.”
Social media has made people's boundaries go so low, I've a small following on tiktok (around 1500ish) and the amount of times I've had sexual comments or comments just mentioning my appearance in general and I'd check and it's from a 12-13 year old is concerning
people going to concerts now tend to be so rude. I went to a metal concert earlier this year and ofc I went there to enjoy the music to the fullest, so I was headbanging like you do at a metal concert, and some girls behind me started laughing and I heard them say "she looks like she's having an orgasm".
That group of teenage girls really soured my night and on top of that, it was my first time alone at a concert.
and wtf were the teenagers doing in a metal concert? Like, if you don't go there to headbang, what are you even going for?
(Changed the original comment a bit cuz it sounded like I meant something else)
@@shining_valokacalm down people of all ages can like metal music
Shoulda said "Dayum, you wish your boyfriend could make you this happy" 😮
Idk if you were in the back area. I always see people who seem to only be there for photos and drinking with their friends in the rear area. I stick to the front and find that most of the people in that area are very into the music/less judgemental. I went to a Cannibal Corpse show alone last year and those types of girls were pushed out by the growing mosh pit. All the instagramers couldn't get their phones out because it was too chaotic. It was great.
Rude at a METAL concert???? That's one of the nicest crowds ever wtf
I've been going to metal concerts and festivals since I've been 11years old and it's been absolutely lovely.
People had a LOT of fun, and were always looking out for other people, careful to not inconvenience or accidentally hurt you.
The whiplash I had at my first KPop concert was terrible.
No concert etiquette at ALL.
Yeah, that's a weird known fact, that metal concerts (though there are some wild stuff going on) have an overall better etiquette in the crowd. While pop, k-pop or rap can get into a truly mayhem. There's bunch of stories of not only artists, but also fans in the crowd being hurt because of bad crowd behavior.
I think it’s bc main character syndrome is almost central to the kpop experience. The idea that you have a level of ownership over the artist, that you as an individual or sometimes fanclub can gatekeep an artists true/fake fans or *deserve* to act a particular way at a concert bc you’ve “earned” it.
@TacseraEpSekahs tbh it depends on the rap artist, if the artist is very popular or has a fan base that gets hostile then sure, the same goes for pop singers.
I have been to exactly 3 concerts-The Birthday Massacre, Ateez, and Dreamcatcher and all were actually wonderful! I was grateful the fans were all nice, because I have heard other pop and kpop crowds being absolutely awful.
Metal fans trying to kerp everyone safe is true. But they still are inconvenient at a lot of situations. They push me around so much when trying to get a beer or use the restrooms, because i am short and it looks like the easiest way... and there are soooo many people filming the concert with their stupid phones
Honestly singers should start announcing to everyone at the beginning of the show if they throw anything, or try to jump up on stage they will be sued and or escorted out immediately. Just so that there cant be any claims being like “i didnt mean to harm her” and less people likely to do it
Adele already told everyone she'll fucking kill them if they even dare to try. Queen behavior lmao hahah.
There has to be a reason why
@thebadseeds He's likely already used to it. One Direction had tons of stuff thrown at them by fans in the past so he probably thinks it's normal.
Seriously, why are people allowed to bring children/babies to these concerts? There should be regulations for loudness to start with (because adults are going deaf from this stuff also, as you mentioned.) And they absolutely should not let anyone under like 8 (imo probably higher than this) go to a concert unless it's specifically for them. This doesn't even begin to taken into account the fact that this person just put their six month old baby on the stage. #boringdystopia
There are regulations in place for loudness. It used to be so much worse with people not being able to hear for days afterwards.
I think the genre of music should be taken into account too. Like I think young children can be taken to an orchestra concert or acapella concert.....
@@DrawciaGleam02, honestly, that just sounds miserable for the kid...and then the kid starts fussing or crying...and then everyone's frustrated.
Theres no reason for a baby to be at any kind of concert unless its actually Just For Babies. Theres no way its enjoyable for em and they're so incredibly fragile .
I technically already made this reply to someone else but agree. Even though you can invest in some noise canceling headphones, it's just damaging on a small child's ears. Especially if you go to rock or metal concerts are KNOWN for being loud.
no because i genuinely cant imagine throwing a BABY onto a stage. youre disturbing everyone at the concert, putting sm pressure on the performers, and your kids could have gotten horrible injured. and for whaat ??
The things people will do for attention
And the group member who had to give the baby back was a 16 yo
ESP a kpop group where they’re constantly moving around y’know?
' Oop, time to throw my baby! '
@someonewho ESPECIALLY this group because their choreos can get kind of insane. the baby could've been stomped on, crushed, or punted if kyujin hadn't seen him first.
In the netherlands, we had a period where 'beer-contracts' were very popular among artists. It had apparently become a trend for people to throw their entire beercup incl. beer at performers' faces, so the contracts would state that if that happened, the artist had the right to end the concert right then and there. In one case an artist got thrown beer at him within the first minute of the show and so he just went 'well thanks, 30 seconds on stage and i made 10.000 bucks, goodnight everyone' and then he just left and didn't come back.
The beer-contracts were pretty controversial, because on the one hand it is very valid for artists to be like 'if yall start throwing shit at me i'm out', but on the other hand it also meant that sometimes hundreds or even thousands of people would be screwed over by one single person who made a shitty choice and ofc none of them would get their money back either. This ofc also caused problems for the venues etc. and there were also rumours that some artists just paid someone in the crowd to throw the beer so they'd legally be allowed to call it an early night. Haven't heard about the beer-contracts in a long time, so I'm assuming they're not much of a big deal anymore? But it's an interesting concept either way and I think esp if you get stuff chucked at your head like a phone, an artist would be 100% validated in getting off the stage and not coming back tbh...
could be that they altered the terms.
Oh yeah i remember this!
The bands in the Netherlands should consider themselves lucky, in the uk there were people who would piss in the plastic beer cups and throw those at the artist. I’m so proud of my people. 🙄
I live in the Netherlands too but go to punk shows, 7 years back or so a band kept throwing beer at the crowd and we kept throwing beer at the band. Halfway thru the show there was so much beer in their equipment they had to play the rest of the set with the same 10 second spoken word loop playing all the way thru the show lmao. Only thing sucked about that show was one dude who was really proud of his battlejacket so he didn't take it off. Problem was there were like 5cm spikes on it so during moshing he ended up piercing the spike completely thru the lip of a friend :|
the only thing I ever threw on stage was a rolled up piece of paper with fanart i made. but that was after the concert as the band was leaving the stage. Funnily at the next concert I happened to meet a member of the band and they recognized me and thanked me for the artwork. best day of my life because they ended up giving me a free cd with signatures of everyone. I still have it
who
That is the only time to throw things on the stage by things I mean - flowers, letters and gifts to show the appreciation for artists. Like they do after figure skater's performance and nobody gets injured, it's a nice gesture (if ofc some idiot doesn't throw their underwear or smth). Like fr it's so simple, but ofc we can't have nice things and instead this baffoonery happens
Oh sweet!!!
@@anotherhuman3221 I'm strongly against throwing things on stage unless the artist makes eye contact with you and asks for it to be thrown. We saw that 'trend' multiple times with BTS. Back in wings tour members were getting hit by plushies and quite a few times they landed right in their eyes. In order for them to land that far, you actually have to use force not just throw it lightly. Then PTD, they were hit with roses. and with hit, I mean they actually landed in their faces which is not respectful in any way. And luckily most armies slammed those people in comments so later we saw only flowers that members were ready to catch being thrown. The huge difference between figure skaters and concerts is that for flowers to land on the ice, which is much lower than you, you don't have to use as much force as for them to land on the stage when you are lower than the object you're aiming at. Another difference, people don't aim AT figure skater when throwing flowers. Somehow they aim AT or close to the artist.
@@boopyournose5698 i ment it's OK to throw things AFTER concert when artist isn't on stage
When I went to the BTS PTD Las Vegas concert last year, people were throwing things at the members when they went around on trolleys. At the day I went (D3), ARMY had campaigned beforehand to get ppl to stop, and even Namjoon said “don’t throw things at us” right before getting onto the carts, but one idiot in my section (112) still threw a bouquet of flowers at them as they passed by, narrowly missing Jin’s injured hand (he had just had surgery before the concerts and it was wrapped up in a bandage). Apparently the rest of ARMY in her vicinity screamed at her afterwards and made her so uncomfortable that she left. Really upsetting that she could’ve further injured Jin’s hand with her idiocy.
This kind of unhinged behavior has gotten so much worse since 2020. I think it’s due to a combination of a ramping up of entitlement, main character syndrome, not knowing or caring about appropriate social behavior, and the rise of social media and clout-chasing. It’s disgusting and needs to stop.
While the person shouldn't have done that, I also think a group of strangers screaming at someone like is also uncalled for and that kind of thing can get really out of hand and dangerous pretty quickly. Just let security know who it was and let them decide how to handle it.
I agree with both of y’all’s.
@@bishielurfer Yes that kind of thing can quickly get out of control but also you know she will never do it again. In the immortal words of Mike Tyson "Social media made y'all way too comfortable with disrespecting people and not getting punched in the face for it."
All that just for a bouquet tho?
@@bishielurferI think it was right to scream at her, since those people don’t care about how they can harm artists
I worked at a venue where we had to remove the lids of any pop/water bottles we sold, or pour them into cups. When asked we told people it's so nobody could throw them on the stage. They looked at us like we were nuts.
oh so is that why when I went to a concert last week, the person at the counter had to pour the bottle of water into a cup?? eentersting
That's so odd to me because most places I've been to don't want to give you anything without a lid because people spill so often and they don't want someone else to slip and get hurt (not to mention they don't want to have to clean anything sticky off the floor).
@@ninas8210 yep. in the rock and metal scene, getting bottled on stage if you were a smaller artist or if people for some reason didn't like you, was a real risk. most of my favourite artists have gotten bottled in concerts in the early 2000s, when being in the crowd was honestly a safety concern because the crowds were insane and roudy. i've never experienced the more extreme concerts like those, since i was a baby when those happened, but the artists have said that they won't play at certain festivals or venues again, because seeing the crowd get into fights or throwing them bottles to harm them was traumatic.
@@momomomo__ i believe it, but that's fucking absolutely insane
But then you will spill it or someone could put something in your beverage?! Like ko drops
Pinks face showing such raw confusion, appreciation and amusement at the wheel of Brie is so real. It would be so deeply surreal to be any of these artists, like what are you supposed to do when someone hands you their baby or their moms ashes? They handled it so professionally so immediately that it really puts into perspective how often they must have to deal with stuff like this
A wheel of cheese is kinda funny and not a bad gift if it’s a good cheese.
Being handed a random person’s BABY is wild though
COMPLETELY AGREE there should be a minimum age you have to be to attend a concert. There is absolutely nothing I hate more than shitty parents 🙄
That’s why I like 18+ and 21+ shows but the downside is that there are more drunks
I agree! Mostly more on the kids ears (even though you can invest in noise canceling headphones), but kids shouldn't be at concerts. Even so, I did go to my first concert recently and I'm somewhat young. But at least almost 18. It was honestly fun and the family that was in front of us (we were all standing) was really nice and didn't take up much room when the show started. The kids were actually well behaved at had fun with the parents.
Also please excuse some grammar mistakes and that. I'm writing this pretty late 😅
Although, there was a another parent in front of us that had a young child, that at least 5 or 6 (maybe even younger). It would be no biggie but the parent was not even at least jamming out to the music. She did pay out to some of the songs but most of the time she was doing other stuff. Heck I think she was mostly there to get the drum sticks and guitar picks. Since she got pretty decent amount of them. And they do tend to give them to the kids or people at the barricade.
But this didn't stop me from enjoying myself! Just annoyed me a little when I noticed.
That dude that hit Bebe Rexa with a cellphone was 27 years old. What should the minimum be, according to you and knowing that? People of all ages can be douches.
@@lazer2521 for me, the minimum is for the kids sake
i just recently went to a boygenius concert and it HORRIBLE.... everyone was so rude, loud, and just straight up didn't respect the artists. it was insane, I debated just leaving early because it was the worst night of my life
damn that's so sad :( concerts should be fun, why is people acting like idiots in mass?
damn :/ i wasn’t even able to get tickets for that tour. sucks that so many of the ppl who actually did get them were so ungrateful…
these kinds of fans are the worst. i went to a concert last year where the people closest to the stage were drunk off their asses and kept yelling things at the artist. i was even more embarrassed to see them holding exclusive merch meant for the meet and greet that went on before the show. the act was great but the drunk people totally ruined the experience. i was just glad i was able to get tickets for another night on the tour in a different city and the fans at that show were great :/ i can't understand spending all that money to go to a show only to be an asshole all night
I sold my tickets to the Boygenius show in June, the day before the concert, after reading multiple accounts of bad behavior from the crowd and after watching a recording of one of their recent sets. the crowd just seemed too much, especially for some of the quieter songs they have. I thought the whole thing didn’t seem like it’d be very enjoyable.
also, I had just gone to a Caroline Polachek concert in April where I was whipped in the face by a guy swinging a scarf ( I wasn’t the only one he hit) among other bad concert experiences recently…
It HORRIBLE indeed, I'm talking about your grammar, some of the words are asking themselves if they should just leave.
People have lost a lot of their public event etiquette since the pandemic and it shows. So sad.
@ptp949And they show you forcefully out of their way instead of saying "sorry I'm passing through" and giving you time to move. They expect you to activate your sixth sense and feel that they are coming, so you have to move out the way as if they were a moses or something. I swear, if I get pushed again while paying for my groceries, because some loser didn't find anything they wanted and decided to quickly leave through a stuffy line to the cash register I'll finally put my heavy military boots to a good use and crack some quail eggs.
I almost threw a plushie for a singer on stage once I still feel guilty
@@kittyrabies a plushie is 100000x better than ashes or your underwear
@@queefgod420 true
You act like this wasn’t popular in the 90s when metal and grunge bands would literally fight off “fans”.
The P!nk one is an example of how it should be done. Nobody threw anything, nobody got hurt and it was actually funny compared to the other ones 😭
Pink is respected by all, unlike other artists 😂
i lost my mind when i first saw poor kyujin retrieving a whole ass toddler and handing them back to the mom. that's a goddamn teenager and dont even get me started on how dangerous it is for a child that young to be at a concert, especially right in front of the speakers
people are absolutely insane
For me, this is a symptom of the chronically online feeling like they want to be the main character, that they’re so short sighted they can’t see the problems with their actions or legit just don’t care.
I will never understand how people can pay up to $300+ to see these people, wait for the date, get transportation to the concert, wait for it to start, and then throw something at someone YOU PAID TO SEE?!??!?! Like my brain will never be able to process this! Stay home because people who actually want to see the person, can't get tickets and/or you ruin the experience for everyone who is already there
Yeah that's the part that blows my mind People pay so much money for tickets (especially to be in the pit unless it's general admission) and then go there and act a fool?
I thought only 13 year olds did shi like this for clout but he’s a grown ass man who decides to throw his phone at someone. Clout is a dangerous drug
When I was seeing TWICE last week I remember how disturbing but funny it was for fans holding up "MOMMIES" and "ADOPT ME: YES OR YES?" signs, lmao. People really cross the mental line of admiring > worshipping celebrities, which leads to feral shit like this LOL
Like, imagine paying for a whole ass ticket just to be holding some stupid sign for two hours lmao
signs are so annoying to literally everyone who isn't the one holding one ngl
It happens in like every fandom too. Fans of rupauls drag race have read explicit fanfic of queens together or insisted on calling one mother until she deleted her Twitter for awhile.
Twice isnt good anymore i dont get how they still have Fans (im so sorry bekdkexkekclelxle) i say this as someone who liked them until more and more era
@@makesmewannadie647 just because you stopped liking them it doesn't mean they're bad or that it's completely unjustified for them to have a strong fanbase🗿
Little side note here, the cheese for pink was actually from a German tv host called Elton. That’s why he probably had no problem getting the cheese in there. It’s also a little tradition, he also bought her cheese to her concerts in 2013 & 2019.
I remember going to a Loona concert for the first time and every time Kim Lip tries to say anything, people continued to scream and interrupt her until the other members tell them to shut up
Honestly not sure why the concertgoers were so rude to loona members :( like this is the first world tour… i hope it wasn’t ruined for them
Chicago orbits 💀
Loona Fans always made me cringe (sorry) 👽

@cindyy3707 Interesting part about this is I distinctly remember those same people swinging it around, stating Loona was being rude towards them and not taking accountability for their behavior. 🙃
Honestly your right it’s really just for attention and clout…clout and attention makes people do all sorts of crazy things and it’s gross
This is true. Unfortunately, social media has ruined people's minds. 😕
I remember going to a show and this dude kept crowd surfing over and over and over again which was allowed but annoying and everytime he kept kicking me in the head. Finally the artist stopped performing and asked him why he kept doing it and kicking these poor girls in the head and he stopped doing it. So yeah people definitely just want attention and clout at concerts and it's ridiculous
I've noticed in the last few years people have forgotten concert etiquette exists. You can't just do whatever you want. It's not your y/n wattpad main character moment, other people exist
In the old hardcore punk scene, audience attendees would often attack the bands who were playing. The artists would fight back in retaliation. At this point, artists have every right to fight back, in my opinion 🤷
I don't get a fan's need for attention when going to a concert. You're supposed to go and enjoy the artist's performance and music. You're the one going to see them, not the other way around
it’s worse when the girl from the baby video is kyujin from nmixx who was 16 at the time of that video. SIXTEEN. a child should not be acting more responsible than you, a mother.
I'm also 16, and honestly I think I could be a better parent then that monster who tossed their child on stage....Kyujin was soo cool in that moment tho!
Anytime I see live footage from concerts held in Japan, I am like, "The audience is so quiet and respectful." But you can they are having fun.
ikr!
As a chronically online concert goer, this is why I enjoy going to most metal concerts. Sure we have mosh pits, x-rated headthrashing, and bring our kids. But the artists always make sure ppl have enough time to get in/get out of the pit before it starts; additionally, if someone falls, we always make sure to help them up so they won't get stampeded in a mosh pit. We offer each other bottles of water supplied by security, and give ppl space to leave when they're not feeling well. The last metal concert I attended, these parents brought their sleeping kid and she had on noise-cancelling headphones. They were safetly tucked away in a corner at the front. One of the guitarists actually played an entire solo in front of her when she woke up. Metal fans are great, chaotic good people
0 people enjoy when children are brought to a concert including the children. You chose your fate when you had them, stay home.
Not sure how your comment relates to what I said, but okay@@cocc_goblin
Why did you chose to respond to one of the few comments about a good experience at a concert involving children with blatant negativity? Especially when the correct safety precautions were taken
@@acatwithinternetaccess5920 Honestly 😂 ♥️
I've never attended a concert. It's not really my type of thing. Like the screaming of the fans will annoy me to no end. Even online, it doesn't feel the same thing as concerts held live. You've got to meet them up close. It's all part of why there's so much hype around them.
You can go to small venues like local artist, its much better. Sure they arent famous but sometimes there are few gems locally 👍
I myself cant always tolerate loud sounds but other times the atmosphere is sometimes worth going for, a good ime with friends in a chill activity.
big concerts can be a lot of fun. but they can also be a nightmare, depending on the crowd. qand honestly, my favorite shows have been always been smaller ones, where theres a few hundred people MAX. because when the gigs are that small, usually the only people there are people who are fans of the artist, or who just want to enjoy the music. not people who are there just to take videos for tiktok so they can jump on the hype train and rake in the likes.
and the crowds are a lot more chill, since there's not really a big crowd. plus, at small gigs, you usually get to meet the artists cuz things aren't too crazy and there's not that many people. iv'e had so many awesome experiences like that, where there were like 50 ish people and we all had a good time, and then i get to say hi and talk to the band. even went to a gig a month ish ago where there were only like 14 people. and the singer hung out with people after. when the venue closed, he let some folks (me included) go out to the parking lot and hang on the tour bus for a little bit, and then we all went to the local bar to grab a few drinks. it was really cool just to meet him and chat.
had another gig like that where i got to meet the whole band, get a ton of stuff signed, and the lead singer even designed my new tattoo (which is amazing, cuz that's my fave band ever!)
anyway, if you wanna go to shows, find out what the local, small venues are in your area, or in the city nearest you, and look up what they've got going on. that way you can enjoy a show that's not overwhelming, be in a crowd of people who are actually there for the music and not the "celeb" factor. and you can even have some really cool experiences with artists
Yeah, I'm too autistic for all of that lol
Not all concerts have screaming
Never been to a concert.. because you hate them. That’s some logic. There’s all kinds of concerts get offline for once.
Grateful for small fandoms where concerts are 18+ and we can just vibe safely. The OnlyOneOf tour was a peaceful time
I went to a lovejoy concert Las month, and my friend made dolls of all the band members to give to the band. Well between set change my friend tells the crowd to start passing the dolls towards the stage. We’re a good 20 or so feet from the stage, trying to keep track of these dolls. Idk what happened to them after that but they did not make it on stage. What I do know is that that concert was a crazy amazing experience. Met loads of nice people while waiting in line
Shame about the dolls
A shame the dolls never made it. Wilbur would've loved something like that.
I feel like the "try not to be dumb" in your outro is becoming more and more relevant as time passes 💀
😂 Fr!
We all need to touch grass. Really.
We should have an international touch grass day
July 27 international touching grass day 🌷🌿
@@lucituci97agreed!!!
also, people will do fucked up shit to performers and throw a hissy fit when performers are understandably upset. like what did you expect? now you ruined the concert for everyone. although i don’t think they care that much in the first place
The wheel of cheese is absolutely hilarious, that's the kind of thing people should be doing as gifts to artists at concerts
Also, Adele wielding a t-shirt cannon was 🔥and I genuinely agree with her sentiment (if you fuck around, you're gonna find out), but also it's funny as fuck to see an artist holding one of those things at there hip with a ton of confidence like they've done this a million times before -- and it's even better because she did that while wearing a really pretty and fancy dress lol
The first concert I went to was Seventeen in New York in 2017. At the end of the concert, someone threw their phone and it landed between Jeonghan and S.Coups. Shortly after that, someone threw a small plush at Jeonghan and he ducked to dodge it. I remember that incident going viral but so many people were saying that someone threw a knife on the stage and that the small plush doll was actually a crumpled up note that said “Lose weight” on it. So many people kept asking me about it when I can back to Texas 💀
We’re those things actually thrown on stage?
@@embroideredragdollThe phone and the small plush, yes. The knife and the crumpled up note, no
If people keep acting stupid they're gonna have to ban phones from concerts and I don't want that at all
i do, please do that.
@@seroquelchamber i don't. The only reason I was able to go to one concert alone was because I was texting my mom every couple of songs to let her know I was okay
im short as shit and would very much like to be able to see the performance in front of me without having to watch it on the screen of the phone blocking my view
@@cassinipanini I get that, but I personally have a bad memory so recording a bit helps me be able to look back on the moment. I like to hear myself screaming my heart out singing the lyrics to kind of bring me back to the moment. Some of us kinda have to film a bit of the concert in order to even have any memory of being there. I tried not filming at the first two concerts I ever went to. And I remember absolutely nothing about them. Besides, if you're short wouldn't there be more things blocking you other than phones?
At my very first concert, the Japanese Band the Gazette, asked at the very beginning "please don't take photos with your phone/camera during the concert, it will ruin other people's experience". It was really nice just enjoying the music and not having literally everyone holding up their phone.
But there were a lot of fans screaming their names, I had a dude behind me yelling the bassist's name like a chant. Seriously, what's the appeal of screaming their names, as if they would then make eye contact with you...
I've been to many concerts in my life, even recently, mostly Metal and Hardcore and I always had a good time. It was fun, no one was angry or rude and I met a lot of nice people there. People who never seen each other before are moshing, and hugging and just have a good time. Maybe it's different in the U.S. but my German experience is flawless.
no, metal is the same here. i think it might be a genre thing. because yeah, i've been in moshpits and gotten knocked down a lot. but that's what you're in a mosh pit FOR. and people always pick you back up, and make sure you're okay. that's just the metal community. they don't do stuff like throwing crap at the band. us metalheads might be crazy and a bit violent, but it's all good, healthy, reasonable violence. no one is actually trying to hurt anyone. and on the few occasions i've seen people get hurt, EVERYONE immediately stops to help and take care of that person.
so i think it really is about the genre of music. metal has always been a somewhat smaller, more niche genre, so the community isn't just anyone, it's people who appreciate that music and want to see artists they love. And because metal isn't as popular, people are there for the MUSIC, not just to take a 30 second video for tiktok, so they can rake in the likes, you know? i think that's the difference. With HUGE, mainstream genres though, you get people doing crazy stuff like this, disrespecting artists and just generally being awful, because they're not going for the music. They're going to take videos for insta or because it's popular.
honestly, it makes me happy i listen to a genre that isn't as mainstream, because i would hate to have to deal with that crap all the time. i've only seen a little of it, at shows like Bad Omens or Pierce the Veil, because they blew up on tiktok. But on the whole, most of the shows i've been to have been freaking phenomenal
@@bottomofastairwellmetal is not the only genre of music that ppl go to concerts for the music. I go to concerts for the music too and so do most ppl. I like Taylor swifts music and if I had enough money I’d go see her but I can’t cuz it’s too expensive. But the reason is the same…to enjoy their music and hearing/seeing it live.
@@sinahaase9923 sorry, i didn't mean to imply that no one else goes to concerts for the music. obviously MOST people do, in all genres. all i meant is that i see a higher prevalence of those few people who are nuts at more mainstream type shows. that's all. like it think it happens more at pop shows, because pop is more popular, so of course there will be more people there who just want their tiktok video, you know?
but like, that still sucks for everyone else who paid money for their tickets and really actually wants to see that artist, which is almost everyone there. it just sucks how a few of these nut cases have to be acting crazy, ruining things for everyone else.
@@bottomofastairwelli think rock meetal etc. Is also for the mentally ill like me like people who are depressed have anxiety panic disorders and sooooo on and so we cope with the lyrics and the anger in the music in a healthy way
Eyyyy deutsch
Nimayndoleaux talked about this too & you’re both right. Live events will change forever if people don’t get their shit together and have some basic human decency and respect for artists.
Going to concerts has been my favourite thing since I was 14, and I'm noticing a slight shift in the crowd ever since shows have been allowed again after the lockdowns. It seems to me like there's way more people seeing a live concert for the first time and they simply don't know the etiquette, or just what they saw of others posting online about it (or they're so excited to see the artist/band/group they lose all common sense).
My main demographic are metal/rock shows tho, and the average age of the crowd is definitely slightly higher than it is with pop/kpop/indie shows, at least from what I've seen and heard (correct me if im wrong lol), so theres more issues with people not being energetic enough than batshit insane and throwing dangerous or crazy stuff at the performers. Also I've never been in a pit as rowdy as at alt rock shows, you guys made me kinda fear for my life xD (and... just a tip, maybe don't throw the horns at indie shows... it's kinda cute but you run risk of embarrassing yourselves /lh)
I love how Adele came out and let everyone know she's not fucking around😂
Ppl are also just so dang RUDE to other concert goers!! I got to see MCR last year and while standing in the merch line, some teen girls were crap-talking random ppl for no reason. Girl walks by in a beautiful pink dress. "Wow who tf wears pink to an mcr concert? Maybe we should step on her dress and see what happens". Girl walks by with red hair. "Wowwww here comes punk Ariel!!!" Girlies ur at an MCR concert this is the last place I expect ppl to be judging others on their appearances. And RED HAIR? Sis it ain't that uncommon. Gerard Way woulda been ashamed of yo azz. I'm seeing FOB next week and I'm SCARED lmaooooo
@@scarletthunter2003 Aside from the rude girls in line it was a good experience! But I was also up a lot higher in like the nosebleed seats. But...yeah for sure those girls caught me off guard like of all the places to mock ppl it's an MCR concert?? Yikes. Also saw FOB recently and aside from ppl who were way too drunk bugging us and others around us, also a good experience lmao! So try not to let the horror stories get u too scared, just prepared for what MIGHT happen, to some degree
@@scarletthunter2003 Yes! I hope u have fun at whatever concerts u go to in the future!
concerts r either rlly quiet or full of people screaming their lungs out 😭 I went to skz concert and people were feral
No in between-
@@lucituci97 fr
The screaming at the skz concert made me so confused. Like, they switched camera focus. That’s not scream worthy to me, but that’s just my opinion.
omg i went to a skz concert too and for the whole 3 hours this girl was screaming at a whistle pitch it was so annoying
dude I was at a twice concert last week and I was literally covering my ears for the first few minutes (and at other obnoxiously loud parts) of the concert bc these people were going mfing insane like they've twice is food and then havent eaten in 17 days or so shit
I went to a metal festival this weekend and ffs, if a bunch of metalheads can behave and not harass the bands, why is it that "normal" people can't? Aren't we supposed to be the scary ones?
(disclaimer: I am very aware that the metal and alternative scene aren't perfect and there have been some controversies, including a very recent one with a big band from my country. However, I feel a whole lot safer at a metal concert than a pop one. The people, for the most part, appear to still have common sense.)
With metal it's all friendly violent fun, not like. violence violence
@@therobotfromirobot For the most part, yeah. Especially here in Germany, there is parts of the metal scene that overlap with neonazis, but generally you won't meet those people at a lot of festivals and concerts. Especially since a much larger portion of the scene is fairly left leaning and very vocal about rejecting their ideology.
@@beardiemom Sorry for the random question, do you have any german metal recommendations? I'm trying to practice the language but the only song I've got besides Schweisser's second album is a cover of Aber Bitte Mit Sahne. Granted Schweisser's second album is killer, but that's besides the point
@@therobotfromirobot I only really have one recommendation and what they do is folk metal, so I'm not sure whether that's gonna be your thing: Subway to Sally.
There's also ASP and while officially, what they do ventures more into rock, they're also generally pretty good imo.
It's not that I don't *know* more metal bands, but most of them sing in English, which won't really help you with learning the language ^^" and I genuinely cannot recommend Rammstein at the moment, since there is a criminal investigation over SA going on at the moment, involving their vocalist.
@@beardiemom Yeah no I've been avoiding Rammstein like a hawk, they had bad vibes. I do like folk metal so I'll check that out! Thank you so much!
In the 90s I was at lollapalooza and so many people were throwing water bottles at the stage when Waylon Jennings was playing that he left the stage. James Hetfield from Metallica had to come out to yell and threaten everyone to get them to stop. People are terrible and don't appear to have gotten any better.
Also can we also mention the horrible people that sneak in oversized signs!?!? It's annoying as hell to pay hundreds of dollars to see txt and the fan two rows up wants to spend the whole concert with their sign in the air. Taehyun will never go to the prom with you but at least you made a dozen new enemies
Giving pink a whole wheel of cheese. Talk about not cutting the cheese.
what is especially disgusting to me about the baby is the parent who passed the baby to stage is clearly an adult probably twice the age of the performing artist and yet the teenage artist has more compassion for the CHILD than their own PARENT which they tossed up like a toy
The only time I ever have or will be in a pit was at a Shrek themed rave. I don’t ever need to be in a crowd of people like that again.
honestly, it depends on the pit. at a metal show? you'll be fine. Because part of the rules in metal "culture" is to take care of each other, pick someone up if they fall down, and generally be decent. At a rap or EDM show? you'd never catch me in a pit. those people don't give a crap about the person next to them and that scares me.
The ones I've gone to lately didn't have anything thrown but there was a ton of constant shrieking. Like every time a person in the group sang even one line everyone screamed, for every single song. Like we get it you're excited but I would also like to hear the music I paid money to hear. Also the phones EVERYWHERE. Can't see a damn thing because it's just a sea of phones. And it's not even to watch back later but to post for bragging rights. I swear social media has ruined concerts in so many ways.
I said it before and I'll say it again, not everyone filming do it to post it on social media, there is so much more reason to do it.
Omgg this was my experience with my first concert. The shrieking was fine bc when it came to songs I knew I could to belt out the lyrics with everyone. But the start of each song with screaming did become slightly annoying.
There's one thing of taking a few photos or recording a small video, but when you're living through the phone that's another thing. At least I was infront of the crowd and could see the band quite clear.
The only time it's reasonable is when it's a slow or sad song that the singer even requests/encourages to your use your phone flashlight. To wave like a glow stick.
Only time I've seen an object from the crowd get on thr stage was at an evanescence concert a few girls held up a poster they made, Amy saw it, complimented them, accepted it as a gift, and kept it on stage for the rest of the show. It was actually really heartwarming and probably gave those girls an amazing memory
the baby being thrown on stage in the NMixx concert was WILD
I hope no one acts like this when I go see Melanie Martinez next year. I’ve been waiting to go for FOREVER
Oh she’s touring? Cool
@@packnetadaija yes! The portals tour - I live in Aus and they’re finally coming back to Aus!
@@luv.lala_xoxo ooo ok cool!
I went to see Melanie Martinez (06/09) with my mom and cousin. I had a great time and everyone there was so nice. ( Staff and fans attending) Although, two guys were kicked out before the show started, but overall was an awesome night!
@@supercandygamer18 that’s so cool! I’m going with my mum, brother and bestie - me & bestie are diehard fans and brother loves Mel as a person. We are going on Feb and I can’t wait!!
Honestly the worst part about the baby video was the fact it didn't even have ear coverings meant for babies. I have been to plenty of concerts where a few people bring an infant or toddler and its awesome that they get to have that experience, as long as they are having their hearing protected
Not to sound rude but how is a concert a good experience for a baby?
Like unless it’s specifically a kiddie show, I fail to see how it would be a would be a “nice experience” for a baby
It’s a baby, if the kid is older I can understand the desire of going to x concert…but a baby??
The idea of this happening at any concert in the UK is...insane, after what happened to Ariana. If you threw a phone on stage, people would 100% assume it was a bomb.
The only awkward concert I've been too really was paramore recently in Dublin Ireland. But only because Hailey accidentally said she was in the UK, quickly corrected, I think Americans aren't quite used to loving mocking being the love lanugage around here
😬
bye.
Speaking of pink. I was at the Thom Yorke concert when a very pink bra was thrown at him. Dude was so visibly embarrassed he had to walk out of light spot for a bit
0:06 I literally just got fully caught up with the Colleen/ Miranda sings situation so the fact you would say that after that video was absolutely hilarious
I was in a concert where the bass player tripped and fell and it was terrifying enough, she was unconscious for 2 minutes and bleeding out profusely, really upsetting... I can't imagine why people would want to provoke this on purpose. Makes no sense to me, it's petrifying when stuff doesn't go as expected
What concert was it? I’m sorry for them though.
@@Twylaartttt A concert from the great band IAMX! They deserve more recognition, and I guess even more for playing the rest of the song after being knocked unconscious
Poor kyujin was so nervous and scared about that baby 😭😭😭
We live in a culture where we idolize celebrities, but also treat them as our personal play things. - Edvasion
You’re completely right and I can’t stress this enough. It’s as if the moment that an internet personnel gains enough fame, suddenly they’re no longer humans with emotions who also bleed red like everyone else. Hence why I never understood people who say that they can’t find a good reason to sympathize with celebrities or millionaires, them being human is a good enough reason to have respect towards them, and their boundaries. You don’t have to worship them, but saying that celebrities don’t deserve respect is almost unhinged. Instead of fans looking up to celebrities and idols, they’re doing the opposite by invalidating their feelings and crossing boundaries.
Millionaires maybe but billionaires? No. A billion is a thousand million. If the law is punishable by fine, they are above the law. The amount of assets you have to own and wealth you have to hoard to be able to reach thousands of millions of dollars is insane and it's horrible for the economy. The economy thrives on money being spent, so why do we allow people to sit on so much wealth, and who would want to do that when there are hungry children in every country? I don't like billionaires, and they don't care about the things they could easily change, like child hunger, so why should we care about them? I give spare change to the homeless and I'm broke. If they did the equivalent for their amount of wealth we could change everything, but they don't. They are a drain on society, with likely millions of minimum wage workers under their empires, struggling to support their families
Billionaires no.
@@cherryj1425 billionaires aren't treated the same in different parts of the world. Let's say if you live in a place with dollars, euros, or pounds as the currency then of course you're sitting on top of the economy, but in other developing parts of the world having thousands of millions doesn't give you a morale boost. There are laws where if seen appropriate, billionares and millionaires can get all their income, money, stocks, and property confiscated and most end up broke. I know people tend to be very spiteful towards the rich but before you get your feathers all ruffled up, I'm only speaking interms of how they're treated or viewed mentally, not materialistically or physically.
@@SoggyMuffin007 I don't really care if the money they made off of the labor of everyone below them gets taken away if I'm being honest
@@cherryj1425 lack of sympathy towards those that are “superior” to the rest of us doesn’t give you a morale boost, and not all rich people are immoral. We can’t decide how we’re born, otherwise everyone would choose to be born into an upper class society, and poor people would cease to exist in our world. That being said, some people are just simply born into money, sometimes it’s generational wealth, sometimes they’ve worked super hard to earn all their wealth ( new money ) and some even get their wealth from doing underground work, or illegal organizations etc. If the law manages to wield authority over these people who got rich through illegal tactics and punish them, then it’s a win win for everyone. Being spiteful towards anyone with more money or wealth than us for spite-sake doesn’t benefit anyone.
I can't understand how this people can just throw objects into someone's face, doesn't really matter if they are a celebrity or not. When it comes to my favorite artists the last thing I would want to do is to make them uncomfortable in any way, even unintentionally, not even to mention physically hurting them.
My mom once gave to a singer a box of wafer biscuits, but she didn’t throw it at the stage or at the singer, she gave it to a guy who was managing the concert/stage who would then give it to the singer. I don’t understand why people have lost all basic decency and any sense of sensitivity, like this is some elementary classroom nonsense! If people can’t behave themselves at concerts, then they shouldn’t attend. Because of BS like this, people won’t be allowed to take their phones to concerts anymore or stages would have to be fitted with plexiglass protection so incidents like the ones mentioned in the vid never happen.
Who even brings a baby that young to a concert??
deranged people. the question is: WHY were they allowed to bring a baby?
27 years old??? Damn life is hard in New York huh
20 is the new 30
no literally , I was like are you sure he aint like 47?

I went to a K-pop concert, it was to go see G-Dragon. When buying a bottle of water or soda, you got it without a cap. Thymes didn’t want people throwing them onstage. lol
Ayeee g dragon
The movie Perfect Blue is a great depiction of certain fans idolizing their favorite person to a point of stalking/ over stepping boundaries. But what's scary beyond fans obsessing over their idols is knowing that people we know and love might be or have been stalked. Stay safe everyone and be careful with what you share !
props to the stage hand yeeting that guy down the stairs off the stage like he was throwing out a trash bag into a dumpster
Sometimes artists throw or even kick things off stage. Imagine if they didn't recognize it was a baby & just automatically kicked it off stage!
Pink's mouthing 'what the f*ck* to the wheel of cheese is priceless.
Concert etiquette has gone downhill so badly in the last few years. I’ve gotten into almost fights with people bc they either try to push their way to the front or want like 5 feet of room in the pit. I’ve had people drop drinks on me, had guys grope me, had (very) underage kids ask me for drinks(then get mad when I refuse). Even when sitting down(in a sit down area due to heat and working a full shift before) had people practically climb on me. Even watched a girl pass out from a medical issue and no one would move for emts to access her. It’s ridiculous. I don’t go to any anymore
It’s honestly so scary to see these people getting assaulted while doing their job. Wtf are people even doing? Why would they do that to someone they supposedly like?
I just saw a documentary about a Rolling Stones concert in the 60s. Someone brought a gun to the show and killed somebody. Crazy concert behavior isn’t new but social media makes us more aware.
They are going to install plexi glass at venues 😭
At this point that might be the best option to keep performers safe 😢
"if your friends jumped off a bridge, would you jump off it too?" is what pops into my head watching these -kids- _adults_ follow ridiculous trends
I mostly listen to rock/metal/alt and i gotta say that the most unhinged things i've seen thrown on stage are a goat plushie thrown at Ghost (makes sense if you know the band), a t-shirt, and a bra.
still weird but no one was hurt
I've been to small-scale concerts after the Houston Rodeo, and they were chaotic. Not quite people rushing the stage, but still people showing that they have no self-respect. In contrast, I went to a Stray Kids concert, and while STAYs were loud, everyone was orderly, respectful when the artists were speaking, and even the merch lines were fairly chaos-free.
That’s actually scary to the singer. Their awareness is off guard. And obviously same thing with the crowd that’s there just to have fun.
They're just going to stop allowing people to carry anything in with them. Honestly, no phones at concerts is exactly what people deserve. Just watch the show.
This is why I always pick concerts based on the crowds. If you go to shows where the fans are frequent and experienced concertgoers, it's usually so much nicer. My favorite band is The String Cheese Incident (the name is silly but they're actually amazing. I recommend listening to a show on Spotify), and the crowd there is great. People bring their kids sometimes, and everyone is happy to lend a helping hand if you need it. They're all incredibly nice, and you often get hugs from strangers because everyone is just happy to be there. Also not a ridiculous amount of phones. I get wanting videos of the show, but some concerts are just a sea of screens and it drives me nuts
10:00 security: why you need an entire brie cheese? People: oh you know, in case we would get hungry. Security: understandable. I'm always having my brie cheese with me, I actually have one in my pocket now. Move along
It must have been something like this 😂
And even after all of this, I saw a kpop fandom planning to through paperplanes on stage as a "fandom project". I hate people.
Imagine spending actual effort on being annoying smh
Anyone who takes an infant to a contemporary music concert should be visited by CPS during the concert.
I’m legitimately demoralized that the person who brought their baby didn’t even bring ear protection 😢
He said "I thought it would be funny"
I don’t think it’s a recent trend.. it happened at my first concert in the early 2000s as an in joke from the die hards throwing shoes at the band.. even the Sex Pistols were spit at and vomited on on stage by their own fans
referring to P!nk as main [insert kpop group categories/ positions here] caught me so of guard- i cant stop laughing
Yeah... This is why dad told me to buy the most expensive tickets at a concert to avoid insanity...
Wish me luck next time Blackpink tours! The fear is real
Good luck. Kpop fans can be absolutely deranged. 😩 And I say that as a kpop fan.
My dad went to a concert in the early 80s where someone threw a prosthetic leg on stage. I think crazy stuff has always happened at concerts, but you used to only know about it if you were actually there.
HAHAHAHAHAHA
100% -- its just easier to see crazy thing after crazy thing now bc everyones always recording the whole set. its not really an increase of activity its an increase of documentation
