When Bands Stop Concerts to Save Fans 

Thank you! Nailed it 🤘🏻

The people yelling about other people being devil worshipers are quite often the same ones doing the assaulting

@@dinoklein exactly. Just like the catholic church

@UWU I mean hell just the fact there were even 14 years old girls there to begin with is a red flag. Do they not check ID anymore at these things or what? When I went to raves & concerts they always made sure you were 18 at the gate. I understand fake IDs exist but come on. What are these parents doing out here.

Why exactly are they called Devil worshipers? It can't be because of the music. This type of music didn't even exist when the testaments were created.

Of course, only a psychopath wouldn't

Well ofc most of his audience are immature kids who dont care anyone but themselves.

And for cheering at being good people the musicians prolong the show than scheduled. Times have changed so much.

@Kier A Sadly, I would have to agree

Travis fans are what by comparison then?

Sorry, I'm not well informed on rock artists, which one one kurt?

@@chanceplace6057 If I'm not mistaken, it was the one with the guitar who was sitting down and who threw it when he got up. I think like it was another member of the band who laughed at the sexual harasser, but the quality of the video makes it hard to see

@@chanceplace6057 Kurt is the singer for Nirvana the one who put his guitar down and made fun of the assaulter

@@Tatibel27 Kurt stopped it, but Krist made fun of them

"coppin' a feel ey buddy?" God I miss him....

*I'm lookin at you Travis Scott*

@@DrakoRaptor frick I was about say that

"Bands that are comprised of actual, normal and sane human beings"

@@DrakoRaptor Travis isn't a band lol

Exactly

Yes. And people can feel angry & aggressive, perform and/or enjoy music that expresses a&a, and STILL care about their fellow human beings.

There have been studies that show that metal fans are more mentally balanced because that is how we get the aggression out.

It’s been proven in studies that some of the happiest people are the people who listen to rock and metal

And the more metal they are, the nicer they are. It’s kinda funny.

100% AGREED to that!! 👋👋👋👌✨

This

Sacrifices is more like it

Cough.. cough... Travis Scott! 😬

Of course they do. They're all passionate people, that's what's needed to write and preform songs on a scale that fans feel. Great mention North Star 🤜🤛

And yet he said he would refund all the money and pay for funerals and medical bills, even though it wasn't him who was jumping on people. He stopped a show 3 years ago cause a fan passed out and needed medical attention, if he did that for 1 fan than I find it very hard to believe he wouldn't have done it again if he had known the severity of the situation, but he couldn't see what was happening and with his earpiece in he can't hear what's going on either. What was he suppose to do sniff out the danger or use his spidey senses?

They use all their angst/edge/hardness/rage to their music and all the sweetness kindness gets left in them lol

@@serchmaabaatarchuluun5761 it kind of works as therapy when you think about it.

Ironic how you are more likely to live in a death metal concert than you're in a Travis Scott concert

@@indonesianbassbooster5167 don't 💀

@@pedinhuh16 "SHITTY BOSS!!!! SHITTY BOSS!!!! RRYHAAAA-"

Oh I'm sure he saw it

He saw it, he said "Da hell is that?" but then a second later, he just brushed it off and continued the show.

Lol

unlike travis they werent high asf hahah

He saw it. I watched the Apple stream. He said: is that an ambulance?

Hatebreed are handsdown one of the most positive and motivational bands i know. Their music is aggressive, and their name makes people think theyre racist or something But alot of their songs are about honor, courage, sacrifice, discipline, and perseverance. That band taught me to channel my anger into positive things.

@@howlongcanimakethisfukingthing sounds awesome

Not to mention KILLSWITCH ENGAGE and AVENGED SEVENFOLD and RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE But it’s the guy married to Kylie Jenner that incites mass casualties

@@eileensnow6153 he didn't marry her he just impregnated her lmao

Maybe travis should change his stage name to human trash

Hatebreed is the shit, a brotherhood man. Don't let the name fool you.

Hatebreed's lyrics are very positive and motivational!

Name doesn't matter. Their creed and motto outshines all.

A band name doesn’t reflect people...

Travis literally stopped the show and was told to keep going. Also hatebreed played for like 2k people easier to manage as opposed to 70+K. These are all small shows compared to what happened at Astroworld. Which is MUCH easier to manage.

Even during a massive mosh people stop it to keep someone from getting trampled it's quite wholesome tbh

Exactly. In my experiences there was always one or two dudes that were trying to hurt somebody. Those people always got dealt with. For the most part it’s honestly good natured pushing and shoving until someone gets pissy then they calm down and shake hands.

@@adastial2104 especially when younger fans or kids enter. Usually adults will tone it down or at the very least watch out for them while in the pit

I was at an Architects concert in Sydney. I fell down then people around me quickly made some room and I got up. I was in the second row up front.

@@johnyang799 Glad you were alright

@Prestin Hurshberry understandable. have a good day

@Prestin Hurshberry Even if, in some kind of separate magical fairy realm, 13 years of age is somehow “adult.” Please explain to me how it excuses groping someone?

And Chester gone while TS is still walking the earth. Not cool, not right. Rest in peace Chester.

Fr that was so awesome 😎

@@kimrose1644 who is TS? I honestly am not in the loop so sorry

@@nunyabusiness8498 based on other comments... I think it's a dude named Travis Scott... Honestly I don't even know who the fuck he is. Nor do I fucking care... In fact, I'm honestly insulted that some dude would bring up an unrelated name in a comment section while pretending to be in memory of Chester... I don't care if its Michael Jackson, Bill Gates or King Arthur... Shit is unrelated, so don't bring it up. Edit Tldr: Honor Chester by appreciating what he's done... Not by comparing him to people that he's not. He's sung countless songs where he's compared to people who are hypocrites (eg. "in pieces" "no more sorrow") and screaming against it.

@@SoulGundam Thank you. And yeah bringing travis Scott up if thats who they are talking about has nothing to do with Chester's memory I agree. People need to leave him out of the conversation entirely

Wow i can't imagine the amount of relief he felt when he found your hand

6 years later i’m sure he’s still grateful for what you did. Thank you for helping him!!!!

You saved a life, be proud

@@ftclud.-13yearsago53 Yeah but what if the guy he saved went on to become a serial killer???

Just wondering, how can you even fall? Like, does it happen quite happen?

He did notice it, he simply didnt fucking care.

He thought it was LIT

If he can’t handle a crowd, he should’nt be on a stage!

Dude calm down

@@iknowexactlywhoyouare8701 nah

Makes perfect sense when you realize that the bulk of metalheads were the outsiders during their teen years and most of them care about treating people decently because they haven't always been treated that way themselves. Metal's an attractive genre for social outsiders because it gives frustration an outlet.

The thing is, when they sing about death and destruction, they are usually speaking out against it. It’s not like they’re promoting it.

most people can distinguish between art and reality

Songs are words, not actions.

Right? Haha but I love it! I mean... sure, your music can be brutal, but, be chill and respectful. For sure

And still some people have the audacity to call metal musicians ‘dangerous'

@@emotionaldamage3954 yeah right??? My first concert was Slayer, Kilgore, and Fear Factory. Everyone in the mosh pit towered over me. They could have literally killed or seriously injured me…. Nothing like that happened at all. In fact they all let me leave when I was ready to take a break and everyone cheered and I got a couple of “fuck yea kid”

lol true.

For real. This just popped up while I was scrolling.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing, I’ve already seen this, but uh oh one of the Travis’s or Scott’s is not so good at saving fans from getting hurt or literally death

Facts!

It's because of increased search traffic, it's the programmers who had a knack for writing algorithms that push videos that are getting spikes in search numbers to front pages.

Their eyes are so sharp they cut through the darkness!

And they obviously could hear commotion! An earpiece is not an earplug

Not even just that but I mean 40 thousand is a really small crowd astroworld was a joke low-key and still they made it seem impossible to see what was going on, mind you Metallica aka the goats had a show that filled an entire Russian air strip they stopped counting at 1.6 million and not a single casualty

@@saulrodriguez5973 dude travis Scott and his team are pieces of money hungry shit don't compare every concert band to them

@@aayushswami3022 i just wanted to put it out there man 50 thousand/1.6 million yea that's a massive jump

Id recommend editing that couldnt into a wouldnt. Itd be more accurate.

There were only 2 people working at the astroworld festival and Travis wasn’t one of them. Also if you watch the videos most of the chaos was caused by the fans and the people drugging everyone else. Travis also checked more than once to make sure that everything was ok and the show didn’t even last the amount of time it was supposed to. Travis and drake also couldn’t see shit because of the fog from the stage, it was nighttime, the people getting injured, passing out, and dying were at the back of the concert, other fans didn’t give a shit, and the camera flashlights are hard to see through. He also helped one person because they passed out at the front of the stage so he could see them. Also the people working around the stage wouldn’t listen to the people begging to stop the show and Travis couldn’t hear them over the music and the other fans. Other Travis fans at the concert were disrespectful and were standing and sitting on the EMT carts to get better views of the show, and in one of the clips you can hear someone say stfu to the people chanting stop the show. When Travis asked everyone to put up a middle finger if they are ok, everyone except the small groups in the back with people dying were putting up the finger. The police may the show were also exposed to be not helping, but instead filming the show and trying to get videos of themselves with Travis by the stage. All in all, don’t blame Travis, blame the fans and the stage workers and police. RIP 8

@@thesocialistsarecoming8565 🐶👹

@@hike4424 Oh yeah you're right, we shouldn't *just* blame Travis... We should blame him and his dumbass fans that showed up that day too!

@@hike4424 dc tbh

I can't help but wonder -- why is it that it seems to be only rock and metal artists that feel this way? They're typically the ones most maligned by the public, yet the most willing to protect and help their fans.

@@nomore6167 because most metal/rock band are open minded. They have morality. You can tell by listening to their lyrics

@@nomore6167 the rock + metal communities are pretty full of people who wear their hearts on their sleeves, and misfits or oddballs who often find a kind of family in them; not to say there aren't disingenuous, greedy, or just overall bad people in there too, but with mainstream superstars, fame and money usually always come before good morals

Which is true of course. But many at the Travis show couldn’t even move a hand and if they didn’t move with the crowd they would be down too. I don’t think kicking was something this crowd was doing

Does that mean we have to stop talking about Travis? I mean he dropped pretty far down.

Thank you finally someone said it!!!!

💯

True men of solidarity right there

Yessss

I remember Michael Jackson where he stopped his music when one of his fans fainted from excitement and the ambulance came to get her as he waited then he resume once it was clear.

Hehehe 😂

People often call punk and heavy metal satanic or too harsh, but in the end the satanic ones are very open about their Satanism while in pop they hide it, and even if they didn't people just say it's only their asthetics. The fact that he still continue that long after that much death and injury is no accident

@@Linda.F the reason why music is a good tool in Satanism is because teenagers even like me has the mind set of just thinking "it's just a song it won't make me worship the devil just because of it" but I still remember about 3 or 4 years ago I used to listen to these types of music and it made me think that every problem I faced is like a big burden and that God is unfair to me I still remember that at one point I use to cut my wrist with blades and sometimes I just wanted to die, but slowly I think it was few weeks before Christmas I started listening to artist like Gregory Alan Isakov then I appreciate life and poetry more, this guy literally save my life and now my life is as perfect as it can be, not because I no longer have problems, but now I have the courage to face them and in the end like they said more than half of our problems are made by ourselves.

My point being the type of music we listen to really had impact on us teenager's life and our mindsets

Bands are much more group-oriented who cares about others and each others, most of them, unlike solo artist, only their selves matters

@@MaxBraver555 then I’d rather be in a metal band

The irony really. 🤔

Tim McGraw did this a lot of single artist DO. You just hear about it in the news. THIS call outs to unmgly behavior IS what the news should be talking about.

Lol no...RU-vid is just as evil. It's because people have been searching for these videos after the Travis's show.

@@SetASpark Fair enough.

Many people pull examples of this stuff in a compilation and post it in a discord server to prove their point to someone, people click on it, then the algorithm boosts it. Very simple.

The AI is regulating the content which gets recommended as well as the content which gets deleted or blocked but the recommended AI is being told what to do actively by real people who have to translate their astroturf income into the content they bump in return.

It was the work of the algorithm Becuase this video was made a year ago and just resurfaced to people’s recommendations

Did everyone forgot who is worse than him or Axl Rose?

@@Mariet31 does it matter?

@@Mariet31 Idiot it's not about comparison. It's about making Travis realize and punished for his irresponsible actions. People died because of him. He should suffer and not be compared with people who did worse.

Most rappers are straight up trash. No respect.

@@kasumi4055 So the fans who were stomping on other fans with absolutely no remorse despite the victims shouting for help shouldn’t be held accountable?

I was 13 at that concert. You can have some really good and really bad experiences so be carful.

Was in a very similar situation to you but I was with a friend who was about to completely panic. We were in front of a really fat man.

"Guilty" es la palabra correcta hermano Guilty = Culpable (español) 👍 Nota: Si esta bien decir "culpable" (pronunciado en ingles) O_o Yo pensaba que era una palabra exclusiva del español y que el chabon se confundio o algo, pero parece ser que tambien esta en el vocabulario ingles y que de hecho tiene origenes franceses dentro del idioma ingles, asi que no, la palabra si encaja ahi en su comentario. Dato que quiza no necesitabas saber, pero que igual es interesante 👍. Note: "Culpable" does fit here lol, is correct. I thought the dude confused some words and i also thought it was a word exclusive of the spanish language, but turns out it also exists in the english vocabulary and it actually has french origins inside of the english language, so it isnt, and it fits correctly in this sentence. Fact you probably didnt needed to know but its still pretty interesting 👍.

@@josepedrogaleanogomez4870 culpable también es palabra en inglés y se escribe igual. 😬

@@josepedrogaleanogomez4870 "Culpable" is also an English word, and I promise you we got it from French. So many English words have "more sophisticated" duplicates with the same or nearly the same meaning, and they almost always came from French. Ex: to hate = to detest, to bother = to molest (or it used to-- nowadays it mostly means sexual assault through touch), friendly = amicable, etc.

@@lizbethsandoval8877 no creo bro. Digo si podrias usarlo y pronunciarlo igual (porque si parece "pronunciable"), pero no creo que se correcto.

@@IzzyKawaiichi Hmm, makes actual sense. But if it comes from the french, i dont think its used widespread through america. Maybe the brittish use it, as they already use lots of french words. But even if so, in this specific case, i think just saying "guilty" sounds better. Doesnt really matters if the idea is epressed well anyway.

To be fair, we have videos from a ton of rap concerts where the artists stopped shows for safety reasons.

@@carlycrays2831 Yeah, my comment wasn't to shame other genres, the video showcased mostly rock/punk bands, so I was more focused on that.

Not to mention a lot of racists are now trying to make it about race which is just scummy. Even though there is an overwhelming amout of care that is to be had it the punk/rock community, it isn't 100% perfect and just like any other genre, it can house some pretty shitty people. You just get an artist or two who do shitty things and act shitty and it can bring in a crowd of impressionable/shitty people into the community because a shitty artist will enable shitty people to do shitty things. And even though there is a ton of Travis stans being fucking moronic and still defending him, there is a lot of Travis fans/ex-fans who have criticized Travis' behavior justly. I hope this is something artists and future artists can keep in mind and try to avoid in the future.

exactlyyyyyy

It's crazy seeing how clueless and passive so many of the fans were at the beginning. What's worse is that the crew and Travis ignored the situation. It's absolutely heartbreaking knowing that people died when they were just trying to celebrate music.

@@SliceofBread123 where is that video ? It’s just sad

I made a comment here 2 months ago. I love music but don't listen to rap. I am neutral to it-but I respect it. I know it has come a long way since its birth. In my previous comment, I said something like "I bet a rap artist wouldnt stop to help a woman"- speaking on concert crowd situations..it was close to that affect. This incident was more than that. It's more dark. And I'm not talking about skin color- I'm saying these young people who continued to party, & the performer continued his show- do NOT CARE, ARE DESENSITIZED, HAVE NOT THE SAME INNER ENERGY THAT EMPATHIZE NOR SYMPATHIZE THE WAY NORMAL PEOPLE DO, OR,.THAT I PRAY MOST OF US STILL HAVE. WHY DO THEY CARE SO MUCH WHEN POLICE ARE KILLING PEOPLE, BUT NOT WHEN THE CROWD THEMSELVES ARE CARING ENOUGH TO STOP, HELP OR GET OUT OF THE WAY SO THAT SOMEONE CAN STAND UP, CATCH THEIR BREATH-MAKE SURE THEY'RE OK. MOST ROCK BANDS KNOW THE DANGERS & MOST DO STOP TIL THE ONES THEY SEE GETTING HURT ARE OK OR GET SECURITY & MEDICS IN THERE. THE SHOW DEFINITELY SHOULD'VE BEEN STOPPED & I IMAGINE THERE'LL BE NUMEROUS LAWSUITS ON THE PROMOTORS,VENUE,SECURITY,POSSIBLY THE ARTIST HIMSELF. WHEN THE STATION ROCK CLUB BURNT TO THE GROUND IN 2003 IN R.I. BC JACK RUSSELL'S GREAT WHITE MANAGER LIT THE FIREWORKS THAT ONLY TOOK 1 MINUTE FOR THE BUILDING TO START BURNING PEOPLE- OF COURSE PANIC ENSUED & CAUSED A BOTTLENECK EFFECT AT THE EXIT MOST PEOPLE WENT TOWARDS. JACK RUSSELL STOPPED OF COURSE,LEFT & CAME BACK NEXT AM- HE LOST HIS BASS PLAYER BUT HE NEVER MADE ANY GENUINE APOLOGIES. THE MANAGER TOOK RESPONSIBILITY. ANYWAY THIS ASTROFESTIVAL HAD MUCH LESS FATALITIES THANK GOD BUT MAYBE IT WOULD'VE BEEN NONE OR LESS IF THE RAP SINGER ..OR SOMEONE ELSE IN CHARGE ON THE STAGE WOULD HAVE CAME TO THE MICROPHONE & YELLED FOR EVERYONE TO STOP & PICK PEOPLE UP & GET THE HURT ONES OUT SO THE MEDICS CAN GET TO THEM..& FOR EVERYONE ELSE TO BACK UP & SPREAD OUT..OR WHATEVER THEY COULD DO TO MAKE IT BETTER. HOW COLD & CRUEL, SOME PEOPLE ARE CREATING A WORLD WHERE EVERYONE HAS THEIR HEADS DOWN LIVING IN THEIR PHONE EXCEPT TO WATCH A MUSIC CELEBRITY & HOLDING UP THEIR PHONE TO RECORD. BUT EVERYTHING REAL GOING ON AROUND THEM IS IGNORED .. AS IF THAT IS THE NOT REAL PART OF THE WEIRD WAY THEY'RE LIVING

Astroworld?

Absolutely agree. That tragedy should’ve never happened

Exactly. He has the power to do what he has to but he didn't. It's not the only time shit happened at his concerts, so his last one disgusted me :|

I honestly can't comprehend the people that say Travis Scott couldn't do anything to do something. Like here's an example that he could have done something, most of these concerts have more than 50,000 people like the Queen one and Freddie Mercury stopped the show because he realized something was wrong. What happened was complete negligence from Travis and his crew who hired so little security, and whoever designed that stupid arena for the concert which limited the space for the people to be at and caused all of this.

It's fu__ing deliberate. His Netflix documentary, Look Mom I Can Fly, shows people being hauled from crowds at his shows by security staff and paramedics. It also features a scene where Scott runs from the stage in Arkansas when he realizes police are at the venue. He was arrested and eventually pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct for inciting a riot at the concert. Local police say he encouraged people to rush the stage. His "heart felt" statements in the aftermaths of the chaos and injury he causes are statements his defense lawyers craft, and then direct him to make. This time, the lawsuit is 750 million against him, Drake and I believe the venue or the promotion company. I hope the suit wins all 750 million and that his next job is hauling trash from construction sites.

100

But they would’ve of rioted like he didn’t end up stopping the show anyway. I’m still in awe people actually paid to be there.

He was too busy doing robot dance
