A band is a band to me, no matter how big nor how small, there really shouldn't be any standards needing to be held up. Royal Blood is amazing, honestly. If I was touring/invited to do a gig at a festival or someplace, and the crowd just wasn't it, I wouldn't blame myself nor bandmates for calling them out.
Nope sorry. This was the equivalent of going to Metallica and having to watch Lil Pump open for them. The audience was MORE than kind to them and no one knew who they were. When mids act like superstars, they very rarely become superstars
I was kicked out an open mic for shouting at the people to shut up.. it was loud but, only for a giggle. Everyone seems strung very high up now. Wonder when the strings will snap !
Imagine Kurt cobain getting this question. What happened to our poor souls being oversensitive. What happened to rock 'n roll. A band gets energy from the what the crowd give them as well. If they think the crowd is a bit lame they don' 't have to be the entertaining circus monkeys for me.
Kurt Cobain would have showed up in a dress, played the song at 0.25x speed, passed out on stage, and then people would buy 8 million more records because of it.
I think everyone in this comment section forgets that there’s a difference between being edgy for a laugh and just being a dick and trying to get away with it because you’re famous. So many bands would be honored to play for that large a crowd and still have no one know who they are. These dudes have been nominated for many awards, sell out tours to their fans, and have a lot on their plate to be proud of that so many bands would dream of. The crowd never owes you any sort of applause, especially at a festival where so many artists are performing. I hope they kinda in a way feel humbled by the backlash to this, because as someone who loves myself some edgy behavior, I now see these guys differently from this and think they must be so far up their own asses.
& they don't owe us any kind of apology. I saw nothing wrong in how he acted. I've clapped and cheered for bands I don't even like. Especially if you waited half a day plus to be at the front, don't be a poop head it's not that hard haha crowd got what they gave.
Honestly this interviewer sucks. Ben is so sweet he gave to the pressure but I was kinda expecting Mike to give him the what-for! Or at least one of those deep stares he can throw like Cillian Murphy. These guys are too kind!
Mike you stick both hands in the air those dumbasses. I’ve known who dudes are. Great shows in Kentucky and Minnesota recently. Ben I haven’t washed my hand since they touched your bum. ❤
So when I saw them at house of blues in Anaheim last year he was giving everyone the finger that was video recording. That's how people get to know you and share and talk. Seeing them in November here in LA. We love to watch and love to record too. Don't berate the fans
Exactly. Back 20-30 years ago this would be pedestrian for a lot of rock bands. I didn’t hear an apology from either of them, so they must be in the same mindset.
Mainstream media is just different nowadays. A few decades ago it was a little more classy but these days the market is so competitive that journalists will get their greasy little hands on whatever will generate clicks. That's why you hear about mild things and it seems like it's more than it is
How to be Royal Blood: Step 1: make and perform the most generic sounding modern rock music possible. ✅ Step 2: Perform said-generic rock music to a crowd who has absolutely 0 interest in you, and your music. ✅ Step 3: walk off in a hissy fit when the crowd unsurprisingly isn’t enjoying the generic same-same “rock” ✅ Proper bands don’t give a damn when the crowd isn’t feeling it, they just try and put on the best show possible. (Queen being a great example)
How to be a hater: 1. Watch videos of people you don't like 2. Type extremely long comments unprompted 3. Number them to make sure your opinion no one asked for "counts" 4. Post & wait patiently for a Karen to show up You've made it! Good job! Round of applause for the hard work.
@@lovelexi19 Soo that makes you the Karen then... well done I guess. A shit "band" with wimpy little fans incapable of perceiving the irony in their own response... Sounds about Royal Blood to me 🤣 How to be a triggered dweeb: •Be you 🤣
Screw that crowd. Royal Blood is what's up
My god do people have to apologise for everything these days? Good on him! He spoke his mind and now everyone is talking about his band. Win win.
Royal Blood is one of the very greatest bands on the planet today period full stop.
RB shouldn’t even have to defend themselves. Fuck that crowd, Royal Blood goes hard AF onstage. Love from the USA 🤘
Whats happend to rock n roll audiences? Bands used to yell at their audience i cant fuckin hear you! Lol everyones so damn sensitive now a days
Royal Blood, these guys are my favourite band.
Are we really trying to make rock bands soft now? Carry on RB I thought it was badass
I like that he's just.. whatever. Obviously couldn't care less about what some doofs on Twitter said.
Royal blood is probably one of the best bands in my opinion
Worlds gone soft 😂
Take your meds grandpa

They were awesome and I fully stand behind them on this
Nope sorry. This was the equivalent of going to Metallica and having to watch Lil Pump open for them. The audience was MORE than kind to them and no one knew who they were. When mids act like superstars, they very rarely become superstars
@@JemSquash94 yeah but it’s not like Royal Blood went there on purpose they were asked to preform, they did, and got no reception
@@TerritorialPisser wrong again. They were an opening band for Lewis Capaldi and Niall. No one paid to see them yet they had a brilliant reception
@@JemSquash94exactly wtf did they expect 13 year old one direction fans to like royal blood they came off as stuck up tw@s
@@JemSquash94brilliant reception my arse
They have nothing to apologize for! Damn.
i just feel bad for the three people who knew who they were and were actually clapping. The rest of the crowd was rubbish.
Just saw them in Santa Cruz, fucking amazing!!!
I was kicked out an open mic for shouting at the people to shut up.. it was loud but, only for a giggle. Everyone seems strung very high up now. Wonder when the strings will snap !
Everybody should know royal blood damn it !
You should come to Argentina! Crowd's always a fuking party when it comes to rock or metal bands!😁

Royal blood is awesome and thar is what you want from a band head
Royal Blood is literally peak, Mike and Ben done nothing wrong at all
Exactly ⚡️🤘 couldn’t of put it better
Honestly this interviewer sucks. Ben is so sweet he gave to the pressure but I was kinda expecting Mike to give him the what-for! Or at least one of those deep stares he can throw like Cillian Murphy. These guys are too kind!
We need more of that Rockstar attitude
“Rockstar attitude”… so being a pompous twat is now considered being a ”rockstar” … yeah sure.
Mike you stick both hands in the air those dumbasses. I’ve known who dudes are. Great shows in Kentucky and Minnesota recently. Ben I haven’t washed my hand since they touched your bum. ❤
Remember when rock stars used to bite the heads off chickens?
So when I saw them at house of blues in Anaheim last year he was giving everyone the finger that was video recording. That's how people get to know you and share and talk. Seeing them in November here in LA. We love to watch and love to record too. Don't berate the fans
I assume he was giving them the finger for fun not because he was annoyed
Seeing them in LA too!! So excited!
Who gives a flying fuck. They are a rock n roll band. Mike should’ve said who gives a toss? Cos who does? No one😂 really wasn’t that deep.
I feel like rock bands aren’t allowed to be edgy or dangerous anymore. This is mild and it caused a whole uproar.
Exactly. Back 20-30 years ago this would be pedestrian for a lot of rock bands. I didn’t hear an apology from either of them, so they must be in the same mindset.
A few triggered people on twitter is hardly an uproar 😂
Mainstream media is just different nowadays. A few decades ago it was a little more classy but these days the market is so competitive that journalists will get their greasy little hands on whatever will generate clicks.
That's why you hear about mild things and it seems like it's more than it is
Id have done the same, crowd totally sucked!
Your a rock band ...you got put I. A shit festival...I was there at the caird Hall in dundee a few year before that...wrong gig for a great band

Que se caguen por no venir a La Argentina, el mejor público del mundo.
Van a ir😊
Why were they on the lineup in the first place? Wasn't everyone there to see Lewis Capaldi? Not exactly the same music genre is it
