I went to a megadeth show where a whole bunch of bottles were thrown on stage and someone pointed a laser pointer at mustaine and he just told the crowd to beat his ass and they did.
STING was spat on while singing, he used his bass guitar to beat the guy on the head and didn't stop the band from playing. Finished the song like nothing happened. PRO.

@@ronyeahright9536 I saw Axl storm off the stage at Mountain View because the crowd laughed at him for being drunk and falling off the stage. He cussed out the crowd, they boo'd him, he stumbled off like a bumbling idiot, Iron Maiden more than made up for it by playing an incredible show that went on an hour longer than it would have!! I was there to see Maiden anyway, I'd seen them in Saginaw Michigan, Poison opened that time, loved both shows. We skipped the Poison and just stayed in the parking lot getting fucked up until Maiden was on. Weed and Jim Beam/Root Beer. My favorite part of the G&R show was when they covered knocking on Heavens door. I was singing along when two spandex big hair cuties noticed and thought I must be a huge fan to know all the words to a song, that wasn't even out yet!! I never let on that I'd grown up with the song and even seen Bob at the Catalyst in Santa Cruz. Instead I was like, yep you betcha, I'm their number one fan, wanna sit on my face, I Mean shoulders? Ahww sorry he fell and bumped his head, guess we gotta watch Maiden. That turned out the be the start of a couple of interesting weeks with that nice young lady. Looking back, I'd say about two weeks was perfect, by then I'd done everything worth doing with/to her and some things that weren't.
@@frankconnor4969 No dumb. The disrespect today is out of control. Ed came out and the first thing he said was that CS doesn't really do encores, but the made a special exception. Enter Idiot-in-the-crowd to put an end to all that good will. I hope the audience trounced that guy.
Sooks, must be from Snooki county Jersey Snore, I'd understand if it had been multiple bottles and continuous, but one bottle, don't get me wrong that bottle could've KILLED one of the band members or at least sent him to the ER. ZZZZZZ
I saw Clutch in Austin back in the day and drunk people were hurling bottles at them, at their rig through their set. Neil finally said, "I'm challenging the person throwing those bottles to a Dance-Off!" Everybody started laughing and it stopped. You need to take it all with stride! Walking off the stage you gave the bottle thrower exactly what they wanted.
You never take bottles being thrown at you "in stride." Anyone who throws shit at a band deserves to be beat down by the crowd around them. If the crowd doesn't step up and take care of it for you though, then the best way to handle it is to stop, make sure the jerk gets thrown out, and then continue playing for the people who are all now on your side.
@@audibletapehiss3764 What I'm saying is that it's an unfortunate consequence of performing live. In a room of a thousand people you are always going to have that handful of dumbasses that are intent on ruining the show for everyone. They are surmount to hecklers at comedy shows who try to one up a comedian or are attention seekers. The latter is usually true. A musical performance is no different. There are always unseen variables that take place that should be factored in. Bottles, people running on stage, technical difficulties while these suck a performer has to learn to adapt when these things happen. But more importantly they need to learn how to turn situations around. Never march off the stage like a diva unless you're J-Lo. When you do that the heckler, the person engaging in that tomfoolery wins. You give them what they wanted.
@@danielcastillo4537 You're absolutely right. I would never put up with having shit thrown at me, but I also wouldn't throw a tantrum at the whole crowd.

A barrage of beer bottles didn't stop Stevie Ray Vaughn at the Reading Festival '83. He just told us that he hadn't come all the way from Texas for that, and the bottles stopped. Then he showed what he had really come for! For most of the crowd, it was our first encounter with the legend.

@@skeeter197140 I like Collective Soul...enough to say go back to your basement and stay afraid. Too many hits to even mention by them. I'm glad they walked off. It's called respect. Meanwhile keep entering every comment section apprehensively and anxiously in the hopes that another troll agrees with you! Lol.
Was at the California World Music Festival back in something like 77 I think and the opening act was a band called The Boomtown Rats, Bob Geldof the guy behind the Africa Aid concerts was the singer. Those dudes got bottled off stage and I mean whiskey bottles no chicken shit plastic water bottles and they took it and played on for a little bit anyway, no Prima Donna stuff. Then again they were Irish so it was probably pretty tame to them.
I once witnessed Dee Cernile from Sven Gali , engage in a full knock down bar brawl that involved at least 10 people while he had his guitar strapped on his back with the wireless still screetching through the p.a. He hopped back onstage wiped the blood of his lip and continued to put on the best rock show I've ever seen. This however was not that.
Someone threw a keg cup full of beer at Steve Tyler in the early 80's. Tyler told the crowd to point out the loser, don't hurt him, just send him up here on stage. Forced and pushed by the audience to go on stage Tyler asks the guy "you think this is easy?'". Hands him the mic and says " ok then - go ahead - you sing". 15 or 20 sec of silence and the guy turns purple/red and all the guy says is "yo", everyone laughs. Tyler rips the mic out of the guys hand , tells him to get off stage if he won't sing and asks "anybody else want to throw anything?" Then, the show went on.......
At my very first concert in 1986(Loverboy) Mike Reno took a full can of Coors Light off the chest during a song and never flinched. I was amazed then and still can't believe it today?! Now that would have been a reason to walk off stage?
I've read a story about how Exodus was playing a show shortly after Zetro took over for Paul Baloff; and someone in the crowd tossed a full beer can at Zetro. Without missing a beat he caught it and kept on with the show.
Friend and I walked out of his acoustic set one time because he was complaining about how miserable his life was staying in an expensive beach house. My friend and I looked at each and said "fuck this guy!"
It's kind of sad if you think about it. Sure, they were successful for a short time, but to slowly fade away while trying to hang on to the "Golden years" of your career, it must be the worst feeling in the world to know you're no longer relevant. Collective Soul, Gin Blossoms, all these bands are playing fairs these days.
Only Axl can pull this kind of behavior off. I mean I’d actually be upset if I seen Axl live and he didn’t act like this. No one else can do it though.
Bands that are respectful and put their foot down I respect 100 percent It does not matter famous or not a person is a person and does not need to take shit Kudos Ed!
to the batman- - - in those situations it makes me wonder if that person is calling the water bottle thrower an asshole or the singer an asshole for reneging on the choice to do an encore. i assume the passionate, as you put it so well, asshole comment was aimed at the water bottle thrower, but i've seen many situations like this at live events where it could go either way. it's always humorous either way for me. : )
Collective Soul are the nicest guys on the planet. They respect people when people respect them. When you go to watch a band play, give the band respect. If you're going to be a shithead, don't go to the concert & fuck it up for everyone else. They are incredible down to earth guys & I would have freaked out too if I was in Ed's position. Also, to the people in the comments acting like they aren't relevant, maybe you should go to their recent shows. They are still constantly selling out venues.
Yeah come on now. Ed is a real nice guy. He really cares about the fans. Consider that time Ed fired Joel Kosche, and then collective soul issued a press release saying Joel chose to leave the band. Real nice bunch of guys there.
@@billybatson104 If you knew anything about their history, you’d be smart enough to know that Collective Soul is completely 110% Ed’s creation. The band wouldn’t even exist without him - he chose every single member & invited them in to work with him from the very beginning. Even his own brother Dean was invited by Ed to join. Collective Soul is Ed’s baby, hands down. Joel tried to take over creative control & Ed (& the rest of the guys as well, if I’m being honest here) didn’t like that he was trying to do that. Ed had every right to fire him. Also, bands give false statements about why band members leave all the time - stop acting like it’s just them that have lied about the reasons why a certain band member had to go.
@@destineecrystal_ Actually I do know a lot about the band. Nice of you to make assumptions about me though. They were my favorite band for 17 years. I know that Ed and Dean are brothers, their father was a Baptist preacher, their tiff with Billy Corgan, the Ross Childress debacle, etc. The reason I quit listening to them was because of Ed’s shady behavior. If what you say is true, then thank you for providing more than the band ever did regarding Joel‘s departure. It’s not cool for a band to lie to their fans, and I was there for 17 years. But I’m not buying your story. As I said before, I was a big fan. I watched any interviews I could find with the band. Ed is an extrovert, and he enjoys hogging the microphone. I’ve seen Ed yank the microphone away from Joel. Joel is more of an introvert, and I don’t see him trying to take over the direction of the band. When Joel vaguely told his side of the story, I was able to believe it because I had seen over the years that Ed could be an egomaniac. But if you have proof to back up what you’re saying, I would be more than interested in hearing what the real story was.
Collective Soul had more top 40 hits in the 90's than anybody. More than Nirvana, Micheal Jackson, Metallica,...anybody! And they were really good. Never been the same after changes in line-up. And Ed (singer) is about pissy since
Good music is good music no matter when it was written. Collective Soul is underrated. Their live show leaves you feeling fantastic. Little boy commenters that do not understand this are ignorant, rude, socially immature and as disrespectful as who threw that water bottle on stage.
At a Cake show in Worcester, Ma. around 2004 some A-hole threw a pineapple up on the stage and McCrea said, “Realy classy, we’ll make sure to come back to Worcester REEEEAL soon..”
They did a 45 minute concert I went to in Nevada. Worst show I ever attended. And the lead talked for 10 of those minutes about his uncle in the audience. True story.
Throwing water bottles or anything else at the band is a douche move. But do you want to know an even bigger douche move? Punishing a crowd full of your own fans over a water bottle that bounced past your feet.
For all of the people who think they should have stayed onstage, tell you what…. I will come to your work and throw stuff at you while you do your job. I don’t blame Ed at all. They had already met their obligation. CS concerts are usually a love fest. what adult throws something onstage at the performers?
Dude, don't diss your precious mama. Mamas be sacred, bro. He's more like like the crotchety aunt-by-marriage who you always wanted to kill while she babysat you and your little brother. So you then huck a water bottle at her and claim it's an accident, hoping she'll walk off your stage for good this time.
Dude it's punk to have shit thrown on stage. I used to love that kind of thing when I would play shows. Unless you get hit square in the face (and that's the risk you take playing live) man, you don't leave.
He’s changed over the years and not for the better. He used to be so mild mannered and polite. Hes not awful now, but not as laid back as he used to be. He even said in a recent interview over the last few years people have told him he was acting like a dick. I think that’s why there was a six year gap between albums. I think he was pissing the other guys off.
Never defend anyone who throws something on a stage. If you were walking past a painter who was painting on canvas in a park and someone threw a water bottle at him/her, would that be ok?
Man! I played in a band called The Sqwags! I loved when people would through stuff at us! Bar stools,pool balls,Christmas tree with presents All kinds of stuff! We never left the stage!

A barrage of beer bottles didn't stop Stevie Ray Vaughn at the Reading Festival '83. He just told us that he hadn't come all the way from Texas for that, and the bottles stopped. Then he showed what he had really come for! For most of the crowd, it was our first encounter with the legend.
Thank you
After all that shit, Johnny still waved before he left lmfao
The marquee sign outside this venue that night said "Capitol View Elementary School Puppet Show, Mad Chad the Chainsaw Juggler, and Collective Soul."
Mad Chad would have been worth hanging around for......
@@peteblackgrape agreed!!!
@@peteblackgrape Heck, even the puppet show would've been worth hanging around for.
@@chadwalsberg7082 I see what you did there. Like it.
I just want to say how much I love this comment section. I was so afraid every body here loved Collective Stole.
Ha! They’re terrible. I’m genuinely ashamed they’re from Atlanta.🤣
@@mitchellhughes5180 I remember in the '90s thinking, "why is this band so popular?" To me, they were like vanilla ice cream. Technically, not bad, but very boring.
I love the old collective soul
@@mitchellhughes5180 I would understand if someone with your Arrogance lived there I wouldn’t wanna live near your dumbass. The guys in the band are far better people than you. Have a nice day !
@@skeeter197140 I like Collective Soul...enough to say go back to your basement and stay afraid. Too many hits to even mention by them. I'm glad they walked off. It's called respect. Meanwhile keep entering every comment section apprehensively and anxiously in the hopes that another troll agrees with you! Lol.
I'm glad it was a water bottle and not a baby. That would have been messed up, taking a baby to a Collective Soul concert.
Ikr. Babies don't listen to collective soul.
The girl yelling, "Asshole and bastard" in the crowd will never get the only CD Collective Soul ever sold autographed.
🤣
lol... we are out of here, we're going back to our super 8 and gonna drink a bottle of Popov.
🤣
Lmao
Was at the California World Music Festival back in something like 77 I think and the opening act was a band called The Boomtown Rats, Bob Geldof the guy behind the Africa Aid concerts was the singer. Those dudes got bottled off stage and I mean whiskey bottles no chicken shit plastic water bottles and they took it and played on for a little bit anyway, no Prima Donna stuff. Then again they were Irish so it was probably pretty tame to them.
Rory Gallagher played Belfast during one of the heights of bombing and gun battles in that city. Now that’s showmanship 👍
I hope the skinny jeans were ok.
LOL
Good one
LOL....
Haha I was just gonna say how black skinny jeans have taken over every genre of music
Its a concern.
glad the water bottle is ok.
Sadly, Mr. Water bottle passed away in 2020...dehydration
🤣
I once witnessed Dee Cernile from Sven Gali , engage in a full knock down bar brawl that involved at least 10 people while he had his guitar strapped on his back with the wireless still screetching through the p.a. He hopped back onstage wiped the blood of his lip and continued to put on the best rock show I've ever seen.
This however was not that.
Gotta give him credit... that was a creative way of not breaking the “no encore” rule 😂😂😂
The guy who threw the bottle was a mole. What a genius idea.
@@erockromulan9329 haha either way he had a bad night after that i bet
Someone threw a keg cup full of beer at Steve Tyler in the early 80's.
Tyler told the crowd to point out the loser, don't hurt him, just send him up here on stage. Forced and pushed by the audience to go on stage Tyler asks the guy "you think this is easy?'".
Hands him the mic and says " ok then - go ahead - you sing".
15 or 20 sec of silence and the guy turns purple/red and all the guy says is "yo", everyone laughs.
Tyler rips the mic out of the guys hand , tells him to get off stage if he won't sing and asks "anybody else want to throw anything?"
Then, the show went on.......
Actually they were late for a wedding shower they had to play. Gotta pay the bills.
Nice. 😂
LOL!
At my very first concert in 1986(Loverboy) Mike Reno took a full can of Coors Light off the chest during a song and never flinched. I was amazed then and still can't believe it today?! Now that would have been a reason to walk off stage?
I've read a story about how Exodus was playing a show shortly after Zetro took over for Paul Baloff; and someone in the crowd tossed a full beer can at Zetro. Without missing a beat he caught it and kept on with the show.
Not right. You identify and hold accountable.
Were they working that weekend?
Friend and I walked out of his acoustic set one time because he was complaining about how miserable his life was staying in an expensive beach house. My friend and I looked at each and said "fuck this guy!"
Yeah, I can just imagine, some rockstar whining about how tiresome it gets banging 9's and 10's on the beach day in and day out, rough life.
Lets be honest, he's banging 3's and 4's after the county fairs they play at, beach house aside.
It's kind of sad if you think about it. Sure, they were successful for a short time, but to slowly fade away while trying to hang on to the "Golden years" of your career, it must be the worst feeling in the world to know you're no longer relevant. Collective Soul, Gin Blossoms, all these bands are playing fairs these days.
Even Starship does it now , and Mikey Thomas is a certified living legend..
@@MonsterMetalManiac who the hell is starship?
Only Axl can pull this kind of behavior off. I mean I’d actually be upset if I seen Axl live and he didn’t act like this. No one else can do it though.
They don't do encores? Because they don't have anymore material to play or are they too good to lower themselves to play more than they have to?
It's like the Bottlethrower was from the near future and threw the bottle at the prissy guy because he was going to walk off stage like a total deeb.
That was a quick out for him, He was already pissy and just used that as an excuse.
That’s exactly what I thought too.
It was staged. They didn’t know how to play any more songs and needed to get the hell out of there... fast!!!
Bands that are respectful and put their foot down I respect 100 percent It does not matter famous or not a person is a person and does not need to take shit Kudos Ed!
Did you really just say "a person is a person"?
LMAO
Is this Ed?
@@Rob-dp3vr 😂
"Crap, we don't know any other songs. We never get encore requests." *Gets roadie to throw water bottle at the stage*
😂😂😂 EXACTLY!
They know that.... Right? Lol!
It's a strategy to evade encores. 🤣
Did the world a favor by NOT continuing to play.
Wow, the 50 people in attendance must be heartbroken. Nothing of value was lost
Yet here you are watching it. Flipping loser
1:30
That passionate "Asshole!!!!"
The Batman: 😂
That was Daisy from Hateful 8
The Batman 😂😂😂
to the batman- - - in those situations it makes me wonder if that person is calling the water bottle thrower an asshole or the singer an asshole for reneging on the choice to do an encore. i assume the passionate, as you put it so well, asshole comment was aimed at the water bottle thrower, but i've seen many situations like this at live events where it could go either way. it's always humorous either way for me. : )
....and a passionate "Bastard!!!!"
Shit! I bet all of the 28 people in attendance were pissed!!
Dave Hansford I bet u can’t can’t even pull in 28 people😂😂😂
Mini Surf That’s not really the point though. The point is that this band sucks dick.
I bet all 50 of the people who showed up for the free concert were disappointed.
Even Justin Bieber continued to sing after being hit by a water bottle and he was like 16 lmao
Collective Soul are the nicest guys on the planet. They respect people when people respect them. When you go to watch a band play, give the band respect. If you're going to be a shithead, don't go to the concert & fuck it up for everyone else. They are incredible down to earth guys & I would have freaked out too if I was in Ed's position. Also, to the people in the comments acting like they aren't relevant, maybe you should go to their recent shows. They are still constantly selling out venues.
Just because there are enough dum dums to buy tickets doesn't mean they don't suck
Yeah come on now. Ed is a real nice guy. He really cares about the fans. Consider that time Ed fired Joel Kosche, and then collective soul issued a press release saying Joel chose to leave the band. Real nice bunch of guys there.
@@billybatson104 If you knew anything about their history, you’d be smart enough to know that Collective Soul is completely 110% Ed’s creation. The band wouldn’t even exist without him - he chose every single member & invited them in to work with him from the very beginning. Even his own brother Dean was invited by Ed to join. Collective Soul is Ed’s baby, hands down. Joel tried to take over creative control & Ed (& the rest of the guys as well, if I’m being honest here) didn’t like that he was trying to do that. Ed had every right to fire him. Also, bands give false statements about why band members leave all the time - stop acting like it’s just them that have lied about the reasons why a certain band member had to go.
@@destineecrystal_ Actually I do know a lot about the band. Nice of you to make assumptions about me though. They were my favorite band for 17 years. I know that Ed and Dean are brothers, their father was a Baptist preacher, their tiff with Billy Corgan, the Ross Childress debacle, etc. The reason I quit listening to them was because of Ed’s shady behavior.
If what you say is true, then thank you for providing more than the band ever did regarding Joel‘s departure. It’s not cool for a band to lie to their fans, and I was there for 17 years. But I’m not buying your story. As I said before, I was a big fan. I watched any interviews I could find with the band. Ed is an extrovert, and he enjoys hogging the microphone. I’ve seen Ed yank the microphone away from Joel. Joel is more of an introvert, and I don’t see him trying to take over the direction of the band. When Joel vaguely told his side of the story, I was able to believe it because I had seen over the years that Ed could be an egomaniac.
But if you have proof to back up what you’re saying, I would be more than interested in hearing what the real story was.
Seems like a big pussy to me. Ohhhh I got some water on my leg. Owwwww. I think I'll throw a temper tantrum. Ewwww shhhhh. I'm leaving!
It the words of Cartman ..." Screw you guys .... I'm going home ."
I feel like someone got the living shit beat out of him after that stunt
We can only hope it was the "singer" of this "band". What a douche bag.
Collective Soul is a great fucking band. Especially live.
Ed has written some great tunes over the years but he needs an ego check sometimes. Kinda lame to ruin it for everyone like that.
Does their set consist of Shine for 45 minutes? That’s the only song they have, right?
Collective Soul had more top 40 hits in the 90's than anybody. More than Nirvana, Micheal Jackson, Metallica,...anybody! And they were really good. Never been the same after changes in line-up. And Ed (singer) is about pissy since
Lol bragging about top 40.....
@@chasepop Rly, more hits then anybody in the 90s?
@@chasepop ummmmm. This is fake news.
Top 40 was different before 2000 or so ...
Good music is good music no matter when it was written. Collective Soul is underrated. Their live show leaves you feeling fantastic. Little boy commenters that do not understand this are ignorant, rude, socially immature and as disrespectful as who threw that water bottle on stage.
Quite simply: Collective Soul sucks balls, and not in the good way.
That's Why They Threw The Bottle On Stage , They Don't Want Them To Come Back..
At a Cake show in Worcester, Ma. around 2004 some A-hole threw a pineapple up on the stage and McCrea said, “Realy classy, we’ll make sure to come back to Worcester REEEEAL soon..”
These comments are so good I put mike and Ike’s in my popcorn
Lighten up Francis.
Rocky Mountain Williscroft ....okay Sgt. Hulka
IT'S AJAX!
They did a 45 minute concert I went to in Nevada. Worst show I ever attended. And the lead talked for 10 of those minutes about his uncle in the audience. True story.
I'm remembering the Blues Brothers playing behind the chicken wire fence 😉
They weren’t the Blues Brothers , remember they were playing as The Good Ol’ Boys
@@mi-ln3di - that is true! For that engagement they were The Goold Ol' Boys - until the real ones showed up 😊
Stand by your man, rawhide...
In related news: People still come out to see Collective Soul, I guess. Who knew?
That was better than an encore! 😂😂😂
Good for them. They don’t deserve to be treated that way by a bunch of ungrateful children/brats.
Throwing water bottles or anything else at the band is a douche move. But do you want to know an even bigger douche move? Punishing a crowd full of your own fans over a water bottle that bounced past your feet.
It never fails! I play in bands and I see this all the time, everybody's having a great time and one assholes screws it up for everybody
Your little brother throwing a Caprisun at your face while playing Guitar Hero, doesn't count.
For all of the people who think they should have stayed onstage, tell you what…. I will come to your work and throw stuff at you while you do your job. I don’t blame Ed at all. They had already met their obligation. CS concerts are usually a love fest. what adult throws something onstage at the performers?
“Who did that? Hands on hips. Lol. Sounded like my mother.
Dude, don't diss your precious mama.
Mamas be sacred, bro.
He's more like like the crotchety aunt-by-marriage who you always wanted to kill while she babysat you and your little brother.
So you then huck a water bottle at her and claim it's an accident, hoping she'll walk off your stage for good this time.
Well, whoever threw that probably acts like your child.
Definitely wasn’t me who threw that, I’m sure I had other things to do that day instead of seeing Collective Soul in Des Moines, Iowa.
I had to mow the lawn that day. Probably.
Dude it's punk to have shit thrown on stage. I used to love that kind of thing when I would play shows. Unless you get hit square in the face (and that's the risk you take playing live) man, you don't leave.
Wow I never thought ed was the kind of guy that would lose his cool.
These videos show how far away the personality is from the poetry, ah, so disappointing
He’s changed over the years and not for the better. He used to be so mild mannered and polite. Hes not awful now, but not as laid back as he used to be. He even said in a recent interview over the last few years people have told him he was acting like a dick. I think that’s why there was a six year gap between albums. I think he was pissing the other guys off.
Never defend anyone who throws something on a stage. If you were walking past a painter who was painting on canvas in a park and someone threw a water bottle at him/her, would that be ok?
Collective Soul has so much star power they can never play that venue again.
This very thing happened at tulsa state fair early 2000's except it was a beer bottle. They said they would never play here again either 😭
I wanted them to play that song with the bird going yeh
He sounds like my old middle school teachers. " who did that"? Pointing around the room lmao. Dude you were good like 20 years ago
No. No they weren't.

Knives too?
Obviously, they didn't "throw" a dictionary. 😹😹
Lol! Id throw you the Finger! Is it spelled right!

Omg that was hilarious.
Serious question: if the person who threw the bottle fessed up, what really would have happened? Would Ed dive off the stage and confront them?
Primadonnas never recognize how easily they are forgotten
Wow! I didn’t know they did block parties. Btw are you guys available for a Yogo car show 6/6/21?
