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. :(
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
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 💀
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...
@@decoraqueena6413
He's 27
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 🤣
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'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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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 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'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 🤷
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!
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
Severe case of main character syndrome
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!
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 😂 ♥️
@@acatwithinternetaccess5920 and let's be real, most actual metalheads are more likely to be stoked to see younger generations getting into the genre, and the rest aren't gonna give a shit.
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.
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 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.
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
We all need to touch grass. Really.

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
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
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
I love how Adele came out and let everyone know she's not fucking around😂
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
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!

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)
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
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 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.
9:29 She is training to take down Titans.
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?
the baby being thrown on stage in the NMixx concert was WILD
Poor kyujin was so nervous and scared about that baby 😭😭😭
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.
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??
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
@@mathildes8583 holy cow I love IAMX! Sincerely hope that bass player is okay, what a trooper!
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
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 !
"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
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!
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.
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
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
Who even brings a baby that young to a concert??
deranged people. the question is: WHY were they allowed to bring a baby?
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
Reminds me of how Ghost's fans made it their goal to throw Ikea rats at the lead singer and his support at every concert. It's all fun and games until you see these items hit Tobias' face. One time some idiot throw an entire rubber ball at him and it made the lead fall on stage. I think he should address it more.
He said "I thought it would be funny"
the way ava still continued to dance after getting hit and only left the stage after the song ended...she is so professional😢
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.
referring to P!nk as main [insert kpop group categories/ positions here] caught me so of guard- i cant stop laughing
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
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
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.
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.
concert etiquette has been going down hill esp since covid😭
I feel like basic human decency has in general. People are awful to one another.
YOU AND I SAID "oh god" AT THE SAME TIME. 💀 That baby segment. 💀💀💀
When Keshi had a bracelet chucked at him in Hawaii, he was pissed 😭
The concert goers are so crazy, if only they channeled that energy against the ones throwing stuff there'd be no issues! Make it not worth it
I remember seeing Toots and the Maytals like 10 years ago in Zürich...incredible high energy gig, and Toots was obvs an old man at this stage. Later on in another city, he was hospitalised because someone threw a GLASS VODKA BOTTLE right at his head...this was before social media was as huge as it was now but...I guess my takeaway is that drunk people are dicks everywhere, always
Not even a week ago I ended up in a hospital because of some 14 y.os getting pissed off that I was standing before them in 2nd row. They justified it by thanking that "im too tall (171cm) and Im a cripple"
I guess yt's algorithm watches closely 😂😅
Wtaf is wrong with those kids?! I hope you're okay now OP 😥
@@error-try-again-later Sadly my joints definitely got worse after that but I'm able to walk again so I guess I recovered as much as possible with my condition! : )
Be glad these artists don't fight back. In the early 90s a band called Skid Row was performing and someone threw a bottle at the singer. He got mad and threw the bottle back into the audience, badly injuring a teen girl. She had to get stitches and suffered permanent nerve damage to her face. In another incident the singer retaliated by jumping into the crowd and beating up the guy he thought was heckling him. Turned out it was the wrong guy. So these people throwing things could potentially be playing with fire if they piss off the wrong artist.
Anyway, that guy that threw the phone looks a bit unhinged to me. And he's a huge guy too. So I bet his aim is pretty hard.
People have gone insane, literally 🤦♀️
I must say... Your emotions and facial expressions, just blow me away. It's just incredible
I'm pretty sure the same woman dumped her baby at a Stray Kids concert too.
What a maniac
WHAT. I mean that makes more sense in that I would trust Chan specifically to take good care of any baby of my acquaintance, but this seems like overkill lol
No but seriously tho, this does seem like she is just absolutely desperate for attention. Or do we know for sure it was the same person? (Although I *hope* it is, otherwise there's more than one person this crazy out there). But my question is, what's security doing and how is it illegal to bring your own food and drink in to venues but a baby is fine.
When Freddie Mercury first grew his moustache, the fans hated it and would throw disposable razors at him on stage!!
still in awe of the fact that someone gave the baby to kyujin, a literal 16 year old like
I don’t understand the mentality of throwing objects on celebrities, let alone throwing objects at anyone.
There are SO many reasons no small child should be concert environment, one biggest being their ears are much more sensitive and will get a headstart on hearing loss
Back in my day, people threw harmless things like bras and thongs 😂 And they threw it on the stage not on the perfomer's face.
Also when we used to say "Have my babies !" it meants "I really like you 😍" , it was not meant litteraly lmao 😂
Somehow people who attend Wrestling matches are more calm than Concerts
youre a great creator and i genuinely look forward to seeing your videos when you post, thank you 👍
ngl that entire wheel of brie cheese was the most random shit i've ever seen
If I were Stiles I'd start wearing a heavy duty cup 😱
Ppl don't know how to behave at a concert. Their rude behaviour is ruining the experiences of devoted concertgoers. I can't stand it here.
Miku! 12:42
If this is happening, perhaps no audience should be allowed near the stage at all. They will stand 20 meters away and if they don't like it, don't go.
7:58 the strength she has dam
These are all really horrible but man the fact that someone was like HEY CAN YOU HOLD THIS? With their BABY to that poor girl. That could’ve been so much worse she looked so freaked out I hope the parent is investigated for endangering that baby that was so messed up.
Tbh, I can’t tell wether the person who gave P!NK cheese meant it as a joke, or someone just decided to be passive aggressive for no reasons
I’ve always enjoyed smaller shows . I feel safer in the mosh pit in someone’s basement these days with these children wilin out
same! and all the best pits i've ever been in have been at smaller venues anyway.
You have the worst ad segways dude LMAO
Harry Styles has had tons of things thrown at him throughout his career, even in one direction he’s had shoes, bras, women’s underwear, socks, food, phones, water, signs, boxes of gifts etc. thrown at him.
I was a massive directioner from 2011-2015 and even my 6-10 year old self knew better than to harm someone
I wasn’t allowed to go to concerts until I turned 12, how could someone bring their BABY to one, much less try to put it on stage. I feel so bad for that kid, it’s likely they might have hearing problems in the future because of how loud concerts get
I remember a while ago a was watching a video on a similar topic, the girl who made it happened to be a semi-popular music artist and during one of her concerts SOMEONE THREW A HAMMER AT HER luckily it missed but naturally she started freaking out AND PEOPLE WERE LAUGHING AT HER
