I went to the first one in 2018 and I had to learn the hard way what a mosh pit was.

I went to Rolling Loud in Miami this year and these random teenaged cacs were on the same bullshyt.

Idk if I’ve just outgrown that scene but I hate the way these white kids ruin hip hop festivals. Pushing people, throwing shyt like full beer cans and shoes, it’s crazy. I’m surprised this is the first I’ve heard of some shyt like this happening. It’s like they ain’t got no damn home training when they come to our shyt

The hypebeast asian crowd is even worse. I went to Escape Halloween in 2019 and shyt was getting real bad right before Metro Boomin was about to come out. Dude purposely came out late to rile up the crowd . Luckily I dipped :hubie:


I've been to more than my share of Music Festivals but I stick to EDM when it comes to the large crowds now.

I can't believe I actually thought about going to this show because I wanted to see Tame Impala :unimpressed:

No worries sir I get it. I never been to a travis show but I do remember seeing clips of him encouraging mosh pits and trying to bring that element to his shows. That plus drugs, drinking, hype and all that comes with it…… sad. Things definitely won’t be the same after this.

Dude nothings gonna change after this. White bands encourage the same shyt but I bet you won't condemn them. Yall only have this fake outrage and fake moral high ground whenever black people doing some shyt.

It's gonna be white crowds all over the world having riots and flipping over cars because their favorite college football team lost and y'all won't have no outrage about it. Y'all will say "They're just kids having fun blowing off a little steam". Y'all hate to see black successful men and women getting money and being successful. So y'all blow every little thing out of proportion hoping for the worst to happen to them and their careers.

banned for what? Did he sell the drugs?
What are you talking about

he himself is not responsible for anything…from a legal standpoint

well now people are saying it was because pushing/mosh pits and the environment created by the event

not saying he’s directly responsible but it’s a bad look

people will probably protest his future shows or they definitely will all be 18+ from now on with probably no pit/ mosh pit which is the only reason people go to see Travis

To think this won’t affect his music/future concerts is laughable

I'm a old head and the crowds were never this massive.
This crowd looks like they didn't have tickets and showed up anyway ..... selling tickets at the venue is a bad idea when it's this big and the security is not fit to handle it

I was at a Red & Meth concert at a small venue were the entrance was rushed. Security was smart on this night and opened the side doors by the front of the stage and the over flow flooded outside and avoided a crush. Crowd wasn't huge so it ended quick and the show went on with security kicking out those without the wrist band.

I was outside at the JAY-Z concert at Madison Square Garden when some fools tried to rush the doors. Mayne them security and cops formed like voltron and stopped them dead in their tracks quick, it was hilarious to watch.

I was at City college when that crush happened. The gym is down stairs from the street and someone thought it was a good idea to open a side door to let Nice & Smooth in. Fools didn't take into account that the side door was in the middle of the crowd who been waiting for about 2 hours to get in. Soon as the doors open, that's when the mayhem kicked. Now the gym doors open outward and security closed them when they saw the crowd coming, super bad move! The crowd upstairs couldn't see that the doors was closed and that's when it got bad bad. They also didn't have enough security outside of the gym to control the crowd size. They over sold the hell out of that event.

The event will definitely take the hit for inadequate security measures and personal ...... if dude doesn't have entertainers insurance, he's done ......

No doubt a mass ritual that took place, I’ve seen the videos and he stands on a high altar exalting himself while he looks down on his “fans” dying, also the severely under-prepped medical staff despite this stuff being a common occurrence at his shows is a dead giveaway, this is wicked and evil

This is why you don’t put man over God, welcome to the astral world
