      Salt in the wound! The retard has encouraged dangerous behavior at shows multiple times. Trap Lord Ross highlighted this and it's sad but hilarious- Travis encourages fans to breach security and come up on stage. When they take his advice, he quickly realizes it's a bad idea and begins yelling at them to get the fuck off the stage. It was poetic. I'm sad any venues let him come after at least 2 similar instances but money talks. I'm pissed people get arrested for simply existing while homeless and Travis is still free afaik.

      You'd think one of his assistants or organizers would have come out to tell him what was going on. He claims he had no idea. If that's true, he SHOULD have had an idea, because one of his handlers should have come out on stage. Maybe he's just such an a-hole, everyone was afraid to walk on stage and tell him.

    No one ever dies at metal concerts because they are inherently more violent from the pits and such so people are more careful and take care of one another, you fall in the pit, someone will grab you, put you on your feet and ask if you want out, almost every time

      I woulsnt call metal concerts violent. The pits are a place where people can let off steam but the word violence comes with a pre concieved notion of malice. Its more that its very physical. I would call edm mosh pits more violence than physicality. Every mosher I have moshed with has been an absolute sweetheart. If someone falls down the moshing stops until they are up. If someone accidentally wanders into the put they are nicely escorted out. Its not violence it is just physicality.

      Metal people are the first to pick you up if you stumble in the pit, and help you clear a path to safety if it gets too violent. More pop/mainstream acts appeal to a lower common denominator, with predictable results. Although, KMFDM/Rammstein at Cain's Ballroom in Tulsa, OK (1998) will remain the most violent concert I went to, primarily because the dudes with shaved heads and jack boots were about 40% of the crowd and didn't understand the tremendous loathing Rammstein and KMFDM have for that ideology. Some girl got heat exhaustion and wound up with at least one broken bone. It doesn't compare to these events, it's just my personal worst crowd but amazing concert.

    My mom was 16 when she went to altamont with her sister. The way she told me the story was that she and her sister took acid and got separated pretty quickly, and my mom started to have a bad trip. She recalls stumbling into the hells angels motorcycle camp and knocking one of the bikes over on accident and breaking the side mirror and thought she was toast. She said the guy who owned the bike was surprisingly nice and helped her get back to the venue, where one of his military friends drove my mom back home and lectured her the entire way about how irresponsible she was. My mom kept going to shows in the 70s at the filmore but said that was the last time she tried acid lol. My aunt ended up catching a ride home with some people she met at the show.

      @@Broncort1 thanks - my mom and aunt are two of the coolest people in my eyes. They both spent the 60s and 70s going to sick shows in San Francisco, and my aunt actually moved to England for a bit and roomed with some of the musicians from Thin Lizzy. Then she moved to India and followed a guru for like 8 years and then escaped, equating the experience to being brainwashed by a cult. She spent the rest of her life trying to recover from that experience and made a ton of friends with other people who escaped the guru as well. My mom has since denounced her former hippy self and become a right-wing Christian conservative which is pretty unfortunate, but she still fondly talks about the bands she used to watch. She subscribed to a British magazine in the late 60s and early 70s and would find out about up and coming bands from Europe, and would catch them on their first American tour. She saw Led Zeppelin play their first show in California to a crowd of 2-300 people.

    Honestly the main reason you see singers/bands make silly demands like a bowl full of only green M&Ms is because it's a way to easily check that the venue actually read their requirements and followed the safety procedures for their equipment. If a venue didn't follow the relatively simple demand for green M&Ms, they likely didn't follow the safety procedures for installing their very dangerous equipment.

For example, last year Coal Chamber were playing at Inkarceration in Ohio and they were like the only band I wanted to see so I just waited for about 2 months later and saw them on the Mudvayne/Coal Chamber/Nonpoint tour that came to Ohio.

    Honorable mention: The Station Nightclub Fire in Rhode Island, 2003. Technically not a concert/music festival, but basically Jack Russell (of Great White fame) got a new band to do a tour of the Northeast. Pyrotechnics were lit in the small venue night club which was covered in flammable foam, leading to a fire. There was only 1 exit the front door (the other being blocked by a bouncer) which created a human stampede. Over 100 people died and hundreds more injured. An absolute massive fuck up by the night club owners and the fire marshall who failed to point out the violations during his visit.

      You are incorrect. There was a side exit by the kitchen and a side exit by the main bar - both were open and used by several people to escape. Everyone either ran to the front entrance which was blocked or the back and the bouncer (like a moron) wouldn't let people pass. But you can check out the facts by googleing the floorplan of the station nightclub and it is plain as day. 4 fully functioning exits. That is why whenever I enter ANY building I immediately locate all the exits including those that are not in the main flow because those will be the ones to use when panic ensues.

    Kinda surprised Electric Zoo 2023 wasn’t mentioned.
    EZoo was an EDM festival that took place during Labor Day weekend on Randalls Island in NYC. In 2022, the festival was acquired by the owners of a popular EDM venue in NYC that had a pretty shady history that included overselling shows at said venue. The 2023 festival was the first where they were on their own for organizing the festival, and they were hyping it up real hard. However, things began to turn for the worst when the first day of the festival was cancelled mere hours before the gates were set to open due to construction delays. The organizers tried to blame the delays on “global supply chain issues”, but it turned out that there were a bunch of permit issues, as well as a lack of workers who wanted to work for the festival as the new owners did not pay the contractors who worked for the 2022 festival. While the rest of the festival did happen, it ended up being marred by underwhelming stage designs that were still being worked on even as the festival happened, long lines at Will Call as a bunch of people did not receive their wristbands in advance, and a security guard attacking a festival goer. The climax of all this was on the last day of the festival, when the festival reached capacity and resulted in no one else being allowed in for the rest of the day, which ended up with everyone who was on the island waiting to get in to storm the gates. And while the organizers did promise that everyone would receive refunds for Friday and Sunday, people have still not gotten their money back, with attempts at chargebacks receiving mixed results.

    So weird seeing Love parade mentioned here but it totally makes sense. I am from Duisburg and the "Love Parade Tunnel", which is how we know it in the area, is only a 15 minute walk away from where I used to live.
    We could hear the music all day and my brother was actually out there to check it out.
    After some time we started hearing more and more ambulances and helicopters in the area, it was starting to become very eerie and me and my mother ended up huddled in front of the TV once it became news worthy. Nobody could reach anyone due to the phone network being completely overloaded so we had no idea if my brother was safe, or anyone we knew who was there.
    He eventually came home, apparently he and his friends never even made it onto the festival grounds as things were already escalating by the time. But we still heard sirens all through the night.
    At this point the staircase that is shown in the video still has a place of remembrance for those that died where candles and flowers are placed. It also has pictures of every person that passed hanging there. Otherwise the tunnel is filled with graffiti of silhouetted humans to remember the tragedy...

    it was mostly caused by bad event organization in a closed space, where all emergency exits were closed and locked.
    the incident began when the band "callejeros" started their show, in which someone lit up a flare and threw it on-stage, causing the huge flag behind them to burn and emit toxic gasses.
    194 people died and 1432 were injured, and (in my opinion) holds up as the worst rock music incident of all time. i'm honestly surprised i don't see that many people talking about it

    I am from Germany and the aftermath from Loveparade Duisburg was a mess. The lawsuit was a joke, dragged over multiple years.
    I was at a Festival near Duisburg at the same weekend and remember the massive amount of cars on the road to Duisburg and the hours we were stuck in traffic on our way to Cologne. Had a bad feeling from the start and was not the only one. I remember speaking with my friends in our car about how bad the idea sounds to hold an event like Loveparade at a closed area instead of open streets like the years before. At Amphi Festival, a smaller Goth/Rock/EBM Event in a beautiful venue we met many people who were already worried about the situation at Loveparade. Way too many people at a location thats definitely not able to handle a crowd like this. I spoke to some friends who are festival staff and artists and all of them were like "that is unsafe as hell, hope nothing goes wrong". And as it happened we all were shocked. A host who usually announces the bands at main stage informed the audience and regularly kept us informed. Many medical staff from Amphi were sent to Duisburg to help out. I tried to contact a childhood friend who was at the Loveparade, the day after she called and told me what she had been through. She was so scared of the packed crowd that she decided to leave the center early, watch the event from a distance and it was the best decision ever, but she had seen everything and has to deal with ptsd since. Lost a friend and like so many other people she is unable to understand how poorly the whole ordeal was handled by authority after the tragic event. Nobody has faced real justice or was sentenced in an acceptable way. Loveparade should have never been moved away from Berlin without a proper safety concept or venue. Greed and ignorance influenced bad decisions and took the life of too many people who just wanted to enjoy an event and not one actually admitted the wrongdoing in the first place. Official statements and excuses came to late and only after public demand.

      It is hard to explain why I believe he chose not to include it without getting into semantics. The incidents covered in this video are music festivals that were disastrous due to negligence by the organizers. The Supernova music festival was a disaster and a tragedy, but what occurred there was unrelated to the event that was taking place.
      "According to reports published on 17 November, the police concluded based on interrogations and their own investigations that Hamas did not know about the festival beforehand but came across it by accident and decided to attack it."

    I know it’s common to hate on people who went to Fyre Fest but I can imagine a couple or someone saving up for a splurge type vacation and then being stranded with barely any money left because they thought their food and accommodations and transportation were taken care of. It was mostly insufferable influencers and rich kids buying private jets to get back home but I’m sure there were some people who were truly scared and screwed over.

      Although I did not attend Woodstock ‘99, I knew others who did. The facilities' failure, heat, and location aside, during the days after, into the weeks that followed, the band I recall taking the initial blame in conversation and headlines was the Red Hot Chili Peppers and their decision to cover Jimi Hendrix's Fire amidst the crowd forming a massive candlelight vigil using real candles. This video is a perfect example, as the Chili Peppers weren’t even mentioned; over time, history has chosen other bands like Freddy D & His Limp Biscuits to immortalize the travesty known as Woodstock 1999.

    I assume most you guys and girls are familiar with the Wacken Open Air Festival in Germany. One of my best friends is a police officer, he always volunteers for duty there when it takes place, as do many of his colleagues. They say there is the most intellectual audience to find, friendly people, no riots, no problems. A very simple task for the police. - Many visitors have a higher education and many are also musicians themselves. The camaraderie, solidarity and willingness to help others is enormous. - There's a funny thing about metal music that many people get a little bit wrong or even don't understand at all. Despite the aggressive attitude there is no trouble. Only having fun and enjoying the music is what counts. It seems that this music is ideal as an outlet for reducing aggression and makes it completely unnecessary to punch others in the face. And over the decades it has reached a level of quality that is no longer comprehensible to stupid people. These are condemned to listen to gangsta rap.

But tragically two fans were trampled to death in the mud in front of the stage during Guns n Roses. And no one knew until after Maiden had finished and the fireworks had gone off, when a policeman came on the stage to break the news. It was horrible.

    I was at blue ridge rock 2023, went in 2021 and it was incredible. 2023 was a literal nightmare, first day was the tornado warning, I was in the escape the fate crowd when the rain started, we all ran into the “safety” tent, where a man informed us we needed to hold onto the pole in the center of the room while he went outside in the 65 mph wind and hammered the tent back into the ground, shout out to that man for keeping us safe. Never found out his name, I was practically naked so when I noticed rain mostly stopping I ran for it.
    No one could find where the evacuation buses were, staff didn’t know when I asked them, they just kept pointing me in different directions, so we all huddled in “shelter” under a fucking bridge where the buses were “supposed” to be. After like 30 minutes of fearing for our lives we asked a worker when the buses were coming and he just said, “guess they’re not coming” I don’t blame him, the staff apparently lost all communications with security and other staff so….
    Second day was another nightmare, no water, I felt like I was actually going to die of dehydration, bottles of water were $4, which I ended up paying bc I felt like I was gonna DIE
    Slipknot was apparently the worst of it, some girl came out of the crowd sobbing bc she thought she was actually gonna die, and when I stopped her (I was dressed as barbie it was my duty to make sure the girlies were okay) she said she was lost and she got crushed in the crowd and lost her friends, turns out that was the missing girl, thankfully she’s been found!
    Nightmare nightmare nightmare!
    I actually have dreams about being back in this scenario, an hour and a half walk away from my car, waiting for a bus to pick me up in the doom crawl, and hoping a tornado doesn’t touch down while I’m running for my life in platforms. Ruined festivals for me and my partner, thankfully I also got a full refund.

    Great compilation. Many of your examples are one-time events, which are prone to becoming a desaster. Long time successful metal festivals like Wacken, Summerbreeze or Hellfest had humble beginnings, where local bands were looking for an opportunity to perform and therefore started a small festival. Over the time they grew organically and learned how to master the ever growing number of fans. They are also regarded as very safe.

    If you’re ever wondering why you don’t hear much about Gen-X, it’s because their Public Image was irreparably tarnished in 1999, to the Tune of a Limp Bizkit Song, and the Most Ill-Advised Hendrix Cover in Music History, and they were forced to pretend like “Gen-X” was actually just a Myth. 😉

      Although, considering the Styles and Genres of Music that were popular at the Time, it should’ve been fairly obvious to the Concert Organizers that they would be completely incompatible with fostering the kind of Atmosphere in which the Spirit of the Original Woodstock Festival could be re-created, by ANY Stretch of the Imagination.

    That Bull Island cow murder is the worst thing I've ever heard. Can you imagine the terror that cow suffered when set upon by dirty unemployed hippies crazed on drugs. Nightmare fuel. I'm serious. I'm effing angry.

    Not sure if this counts as a festival since it happened indoors, but the Station night club disaster is a good example, where the band Great White performed. The small nightclub caught fire, plus with it packed and everyone trying to leave, many died after being crushed to death

      A friend of mine survived that and still has to live with the mental scars of the incident. To hear him describe it is heartbreaking. He just happened to be at the right place at the right time and got out, but how fast it went up and hearing people burning to death inside - he still can’t sleep at night.

    By the late ’90s rock had been returned to boys/men. The women my cohort had listened to - L7, PJ Harvey, Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth, Kim Deal of Pixies & Breeders, et al. - were ignored for figures/bands that took what earlier punk/metal/grunge bands had done and churned out appealing anthems of rebellion and experiences where women were not surprisingly afterthoughts. And these guys doubled down on aggression and chaos and violence lyrically and as a part of these scenes. The rise of rap-rock didn’t have room for women except on the sidelines, basically. You merge two music forms dominated by young male voices and sentiments the way that happened, girls and women were inevitably going to be sexualized and SA’d at R*pestock. It was sad, disgusting, outrageous - but it foreshadowed the erosion of respect and value so many boys and men would feel towards women & girls in the 21st century.

    The most shocking piece of footage from AstroWorld - when paramedics were finally able to get to victims, there was about eight paramedics on top of about eight dead people doing CPR at the same time next to each other. As an emergency dispatcher, it is the side of Rescue services that I will never face. I can't imagine how to process that situation later.

    Ive been in a really tight crowd, once. It's not only claustrophobic it's also (as this video proves) hard to breathe. There was a point where i got LIFTED off of the ground, and I'm not tall at all. I did get the air pushed out of my lungs more than once.
    Scary as hell when you think you're going to die just because you wanted to see someone perform live and you got crushed by people wanting to do the same thing.
