I was there; the guy who put a chokehold is a complete bully. He was all the way to the front and expected absolutely no one to come in contact with him or the woman he was with(at a rock show!!!). I personally bumped into him and the guy was super aggressive. This is the typical abusive male Karen that constantly goes off on people for no reason. He shouldn’t have been there.

I was there; the guy who put a chokehold is a complete bully. He was all the way to the front and expected absolutely no one to come in contact with him or the woman he was with(at a rock show!!!). I personally bumped into him and the guy was super aggressive. This is the typical abusive male Karen that constantly goes off on people for no reason. He shouldn’t have been there.

Just another reason to love Ian and The Cult. What a great band.
THIS is TRUE Protection. When a lead singer/band stops, mid-song and is ALWAYS scanning the audience to make sure everyone is safe and having a good time.
It's so great when performers are still paying attention to their fans
He went straight into action soon as he seen it. Sharp performer
It's soo nice to see a rock star care for his fans like this 😊
Ian is such a deep soul, you can hear his heart through his lyrics. From Southern Death Cult to their latest Hidden City, they haven't stopped, even through wonderful actions like this. Thank you Ian and Billy for helping me along the way through my tough hiccups in life.

I dont even listen to rock music but I LOVE this man! Thank you so much for protecting him! No one deserves that!

Saw these guys about 12-13 years ago in San Fran, Ian came off the drum riser funny and broke his leg...after about three minutes conferring with someone off stage, he was helped to sit on the riser, and completed the set. Class act. I think we would've understood if he had bailed to the hospital...
😮 How in the heck he could even see what was going on out there is pretty impressive. That and the fact that he jumps into the crowd and the band just keeps playing like..ok then, he’ll be back. 😅

Glad there was a real Man on that stage! Bless this lead singer of the band Cult..
That's a true rock God right there, saw a fan in trouble and said awe Hell no!
This wonderful person is Ian Astbury. He is not just the lead singer for the legendary band the Cult, but a true gentleman who took it upon himself to intervene when a bully narc. was physically assaulting someone in the crowd. Ian didn't have to do a thing and could have easily called for security, but no he took care of business himself.
Even though it must be very difficult, it is nice to see that bands are starting to pay attention to what goes on in the audience.
I love it, he has a golden heart n soul*
….and that, folks, is how to call someone out! 💜💕❤️
An absolute hero! Not afraid to stop the show. Not afraid to confront the jackass! You rock, my man!!
Was a big fan back in the day.. glad they're still rocking. Would love to see them now !! Great job Ian..

He's so right. Good for him for protecting that audience member.
Total class! The Cult should be in the Hall of Fame! Ian showed who he is and everyone should love him for it!
I love Ian!!! Such a wonderful human being!! And my favorite singer!!! THE CULT FOREVER!!!!!!
The man is LEGENDARY!! And I’ve never even been to a Cult concert! RESPECT any man!
Excellent the fact that girl was saved is awesome. Ian displayed compassion and told the guy straight. Chokehold is disgusting. So pleased Ian took time to tell him straight. Kudos plus respect kind Sir. Wow. Thank you so very much. Kindest regards from England.
Been a huge Cult fan for over 30 years, these bullies have no business calling themselves fans, definitely not the place for this kind of behaviour. Big love to Ian for stopping this crap. Peace love and rock n roll✌🤘x

I've always enjoyed the Cult and Ian Asburys vocals. Obviously with security around him he wasn't worried about being harmed. It was very considerate and caring.
He clearly cares about the people who support him. Didn't even hesitate, the second he seen it he handled it.
Amazing talent in this band
Ian Astbury has changed over the years. Good job saving a fan.
He didn’t even have him removed. Class act.
Love it. Intervened, held him accountable and called him out. That couldn’t have went differently.

I had this happen to me almost 2years ago by my landlord at the time. He kept asking me out and my repeated refusals almost cost me my life. Later I would learn that he has done this to other people too. He has never been charged even though I tried. If I was to tell you more in depth the things this bully in my town has done and gotten away with too it would make your blood boil! I'll never be the same Changed forever Never to trust again Narcissist/Bully/Bragger/Twist He will strike AGAIN! There is seriously something wrong when you tell someone that this happened but it doesn't even register because it's easier to believe a lie when the truth is too painful to swallow. . Awesome thanks a million times over for being one of the good guys Ian Rock On
Amazing, Now I respect them even more
