When Bands Stop Concerts to Save Fans

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.

[@mikeg3439]

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.

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

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.

He had to do that a couple more times throughout the night when the band were playing their popular songs.

This proves that we can learn a lot from the rock community in general. Like, there are even rules of engagement in mosh pits at metal concerts.

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

It is a performers responsibility to stop the show and help the audience realize that they need to help the police and emergency people and even vehicles, but calling attention to how the audience can help. Travis Scott did not help the situation nor the emergency support. He was completely unprofessional in that situation. There are times the show must not go on.

It was like a universal unspoken rule. There was some sort of "costum" there where in the mosh pit people were purposely body-chucking others (don't ask me, I just found the whole thing mildly frightening and didn't body-chuck others). Anyways, I fell (a.k.a. was unintentionally thrown) to the ground twice. Each time I was of course scared, but each time everyone around me immediately stopped to help pick me up and/or make sure people know that someone was down and to stay clear.

Its crazy how punk, rock, metal, all these genres of music get so much hate and get villianized yet end up having the most positive and caring people within them. They're willing to put the safety of there fans as top priority over their performance, nothing but respect from me. Edit: I'm going to preface, for those generalizing my comment, I am fully aware that the entirety of the rock/metal/punk genre cannot be fully considered safe and caring. No matter what genre, your unfortunately going to get people who will push aggressive and violent behavior for no excusable reason. I also didn't post this comment as a point to shit on other genres, like rap. Im fully aware of the Travis incident, and I don't support using it as an excuse to pit the entirety of the rap genre against each other or other genres. I don't care what music you like, I only care if your a decent human being whose respectful of others. Don't disregard safety over a celebrity. Its not worth it.

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

[@BlurryNova]

@@rosesweetcharlotte Yeah, my comment wasn't to shame other genres, the video showcased mostly rock/punk bands, so I was more focused on that. I know this video is currently getting popular due to the incident at Travis' concert, its unfortunate this shit is now being used to shame the entire rap genre as well as rap artists in general. 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.

[@imtrippingrn]

Notice how they are on stages? Travis had a whole ass pedestal with a grand view of everything, he would have twice as good visibility of the crowd than these bands. Its mind boggling to me how he let this happen. Edit: you even see in a few of the clips after they stop the show and tell people "we are gonna make sure this person is okay" and there are people cheering nobody booing or getting angry. Everybody listens and moves for the person. He easily could have taken 30 seconds to tell the crowd to spread and let the ambulance through. And that's the very least he should have done

[@ekanang7550]

But, it seems to me, that these people here on stage were simply sober and alert. Now look at this Zomby Travis. I wonder if he actually knew, where he was.

[@imtrippingrn]

@@ekanang7550 true i bet they were more sober than him, but thing is he did stop the concert at one point. it was before the viral clip of him staring at someone being carried out saying "yeeeeahhhhh yeeeeeaahhhhhhh" in autotune repeatedly. So he knew and saw enough to stop the show for 10 seconds to ask for a guy to get picked up by security, . But didnt stop it long enough to let the guy actually be carried out of the crowd or have the ambulance be let through to help other people.

He would literally have to be like Hellen Keller to be that oblivious to the literal cries of help coming from the crowd and flashing lights coming from the ambulances, and even if the lights were obscuring his vision and the music was too deafening, the lights would at most obscure a portion of his vision and still be able to see flashing lights coming from the crowd as the lights were behind him. He even wen't as far as to tell the crowd to put up a middle finger in the air and not stopping people from getting on top of the ambulances, he clearly knew what was going on, and even if he did stop literally only once to help someone, his actions are still inexcusable. So that "Oh he couldn't notice what was going on in the crowd" excuse is out of the window, so what if security couldn't see that the crowd was in trouble? They were literally buried in the sea of people as well so they could not see anything that was going on.
