The worst concert I ever went to was a Green Day concert a long long time ago. The guy in front of me erupted from his behind and dumped a bucket of pure liquid poo all over directly in front of me. It got all over my shoes and socks, it was terrible. No sooner did I process that I had essentially been poo'd on, he started vomiting. Yeah, it was everywhere. No time to get mad though, turns out he was having a massive heart attack. They carried him off to the hospital and I walked out of there barefoot with my shoes in a trashbag. Good times.

Rolling Stone magazine had a really good article about the tragedy soon after it occurred. One of the things that stayed with me was a brief moment shared by one of the survivors: he was in the thick of the crush, trying to get through it upright, when he felt something tugging at his pants, around the knee. He looked down and saw a girl, parallel to the floor, stuck between people who had no way to help her. She was crowd surfing, but at roughly 3 ft off the floor. He didn't know what happened to her, and you could tell he had been changed by his experience. As I recall, most of the dead were found up against a chain link fence, the top of which was bent outward about a foot from the pressure of the crowd. I can only imagine how horrible it must have been to be one of those right up on the fence while it was sustaining such pressure.

Speaking of poor booking incidents, a friend of mine who’s big into metal and punk told me about an incident involving a heavy metal band called Lamb of God. He explained, “For context, their original name was Burn the Priest.” He told me that Lamb of God was invited to perform at a gospel concert because someone saw the name and made an assumption about the kind of music they made. The band asked, “You don’t know what kind of music we make, do you?” and declined the invitation.

When I read the title of the video, the first thing that came to mind was Damageplan's last concert. (If you're not a Dimebag Darrell fan and don't know the story behind that, look it up.) Also, I can scarce believe that after 29 years I am still discovering new stories about Kurt Cobain that further cement his status as absolute Legend. Now, as somebody who's been going to concerts since I first figured out how to sneak out of my parents' house to do so as a Gen-X teenager, I've seen my share of concerts ruined by morons over the past three decades or so. But I prefer to mention one concert that could very well have been ruined by a moron, but instead was epically saved by the band. The band in question is French Cyberpunk legends Punish Yourself, the date is either late 2005 or early 2006, the venue is what was then the _Locomotive_ in Paris, France (which venue today is part of the Moulin Rouge complex). A couple of songs into the set, after a song during which a lady dressed up as a sexy nurse came on stage and a guy dressed like some B-movie monster/killer joined her and started piercing her tits with long thin spikes (when I said Punish Yourself are legends, I meant it!), some moron from the audience climbed up on stage and just wouldn't leave. The moron, who was clearly at an advanced stage of inebriation, just kept running up and down playing cat and mouse with the Security, trying to touch the members of the band (who were lathered in glow-in-the-dark neon paint), trying to touch the vocalist's foot-long Mohawk, trying to touch the sexy nurse (who wasn't actually naked; just in a skimpy sexy getup). The vocalist looked around, figured that Security weren't going to help solve _that_ problem anytime soon, and then when the moron got up in his face again he just kicked him off the stage so hard - like, totally _This is Sparta!_ style - the moron flew off two or three rows back into the audience who first caught him (moron or not, there is still a minimum modicum of Metalhead etiquette, such as catching whoever flies off stage, whatever their means of propulsion) , and then dropped him. Don't know what happened to the moron afterwards, but the audience went wild and was rocking away at twice the zeal for the rest of the gig.

Years ago, in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, a local classic rock radio station - known for promoting hard rock acts when they come to town - was teasing for weeks about "a major announcement" which got their listeners extremely excited. They revealed they were going to announce a concert they were promoting, and kept teasing their listeners as to who the artist was. For days and days and DAYS the listeners kept guessing it was going to be a hard rock band like AC/DC, or Metallica, or something along those lines. When they finally revealed who it was.. it was non-other than... ....wait for it... ... ..CELINE DION!! There was so much outrage by the radio station's listeners, that the controversy got back to Celine and her manager husband, Rene. They took it as such a personal insult that they cancelled the concert. To try and mend things, the DJs managed to get Rene on the phone live on the air, and he was PI$$ED basically basically saying they will NEVER come to Halifax ever again (they previously played Halifax a few years before the incident) The media got the story wrong and thought NO ONE wanted Celine to come, so fuel got added to the fire when TRUE Celine fans (and rival pop radio station who should have been the promoters) got even MORE mad at Celine for snubbing THEM because she and Rene refused to accept/understand it was all a mistake.

@@CanalDuModem It was drizzling before the concert started. When they got on stage, it started raining. They kept performing because no one in the audience left. Until lightning started to join the rain. The crowd from the upper benches took this chance to join the small crowd on the football field. Several climbed the scaffolding for the video monitor for a better view. Amidst all this, the lead singer was telling the people on the tower to go down, to no avail. Then they left citing that the wet stage is in danger of electrocuting them. They promised to come back once the rain subsided and the stage got a little dry. So the concert-goers waited...and waited...and waited. After 45 minutes, the rain cleared and the people started clapping and shouting for BON JOVI to perform again. After a few minutes, someone from the organizers announced that the group left the stadium and that they won't be coming back. That's when all hell broke loose.

@@CanalDuModem As was shown in the footage of one of the concerts in this video, people rioted when the concert was discontinued. It is understandable in the light of poor fans who sacrificed a lot to get a pricey ticket only to not get their money's worth come concert time. They were understandably angry and frustrated over the short change.

An honorable mention should have been when Black Sabbath played in I think Milwaukee in 1980. During their first or second song, someone threw a big brass cross up onstage and hit bassist Geezer Butlers bass, and sliced his strings, but continued. Afterwards, someone else (or the same person) threw a beer bottle up and hit Geezer right in the head. He played while blood poured down his face. By the time they were going to start playing their next song, Geezer collapsed. The band left the stage, and I think their tour manager came out to give the audience crap for what happened and the show ended. In the end, the audience tore the place up, and gear got destroyed. There is an audio clip out there somewhere of what happened, but its a bit hard to find now.

Hilarious seeing Smashmouth's musicians patiently playing the song while the singer goes crazy. It reminded me of a gig I played in a throw together band, ironically called the All Stars. The singer was nervous and got wasted before the gig and he completely forgot how to sing Telegram Sam. We kept playing that dumb riff *forever*, waiting for the clown to sing something that sounded remotely like it belonged. We were pissed off at the time but it's funny looking back. I heard later that the screwup broke a friendship between the guitarist and singer.

I have a funny story that fits in with this subject. Back in 1980 my friend and I went to a J. Geils Band concert at Curtis Hixon Hall in Tampa, Florida. We were in high school at the time. The opening act was a band named "3D". 3D turned out to be a new wave band that we felt was totally wrong for a J. Geils audience. The audience started booing half way through the first song. The band continued playing and the audience started throwing trash up on the stage. This is back when the concert venues served soda in the tall wax coated paper cups. When you finished your soda you could wad the cup into a baseball size projectile. The stage was littered with these wadded up cups among other trash. Then, around the third or fourth song, with the stage literally covered in trash, something caught my eye above the audience. There was a spotlight in the back of the venue aimed directly at the center of the stage and there was something flashing, reflecting the light from the spotlight as it was flying from somewhere in the center of the audience and towards the stage. Back in the late '70s and early '80s concert security is not what it is today and you could sneak in all kinds of things. This flashing object headed straight for the bass player and hit him in the face. When it landed on the stage floor it turned out to be a Jack Daniels bottle. The bass player ran off the stage followed by the singer. The rest of the band continued playing. The singer came back out and told the band to stop. He then turned to the audience and said "F**K you Tampa" and walked off the stage, then the drummer came up to the front of the stage and mooned the audience before leaving the stage. The audience cheered as they left. It took staff half an hour to clean up the mess. J. Geils came out and played an great show. One year later we saw J. Geils again at the same venue. The ticket read "The J. Geils Band with special U2. We had no idea who U2 was, we had never heard of them. We found out later that they had recently released their first album and it was their first U.S. tour. After the 3D disaster they had another opening band whose name consisted of a number and a letter. We got there early because we didn't want to miss another disaster. U2 turned out to be amazing and the audience loved them. They were one of the best opening bands we had ever seen and we became big U2 fans after that show and it was amazing to see how their career progressed from that little band from Ireland into the superstars that they became.

I saw The J Geils Band on the same tour, at the Oakland Auditorium (which was remodeled and renamed The Henry J Kaiser Aud.). We also thought 3D was ridiculously mismatched with the greatest concert band of the era. I was a senior in high school, there with my sister, a female friend of my same age, and a group of about 8 Air Force guys, friends of ours who kept us safe in a crazy crowd. I don't remember the garbage being so bad, but the unfortunate members of 3D were as spit covered as anyone I've ever seen, and much of it flew right past me. I touched Peter Wolf's feet that night. Time of my life.

Doing that for a Metal or Punk gig would kinda defeat the point of having the gig in the first place, wouldn't it? Fortunately, Punks and Metalheads come in all ages and some of them double as unpaid Security and First Aid workers from within the moshpit. Doesn't require too high an IQ to, when you see someone go down in the Pit, you extend a hand, you help them back up, you make sure they're not trampled; that's just Metalhead courtesy.

He started yelling at everyone, including the crowd. They didn't even make it through the first song before he stopped playing and threw a fit! Everyone started booing him and someone threw a Birkenstock on the stage. I think somewhere there has to be a sound bite that has him whining and saying "Man, who threw a Birkenstock at me?". He may have said sandal not Birkenstock but you get the idea. Needless to say they left among many boo's. The rest of the band looked mortified and embarrassed about the whole ordeal.
