When Throwing Things at Bands Goes Wrong
Музыка
There's been a disturbing recent trend of fans throwing things at musicians onstage, hoping for a morsel of internet fame. Unfortunately, as this video shows, it's an issue artists have been dealing with for a while.

Never forget during Woodstock 94 when Primus was playing "My Name Is Mud" and they got mud thrown at them (as it was heavily raining throughout the day and the concert took place in a grass field). Les Claypool responded by stopping the song and saying "You know, when you throw things onstage, it's a size of small and insignificant genitalia." The crowd immediately stopped and hurled nothing for the rest of their set. Legendary.

This video is missing Chester Bennington. He didn't get hit but something threw a jug close to him and he did a stare down while singing directly at that person. That was one month before he died and people like Loudwire made fun of him for it. Edit: Mind you, they were the headliners, and the fan probably did not like the song "Heavy." They could have just left the festival early.
Such a sweetheart of an interpreter, no swearing.
Saw Metallica in 1998 at the Gorge at George. Some ass threw a bottle at Newstead right in the middle of One. They stopped, James pointed the guy out, people took turns punching the guy as he was herded to the barrier and handed over to security. To their credit, they picked up right where they left off and continued the song.
Oh God, for one to not be a fan of Justin Bieber, like at all, I'm still disappointed that someone would do that to him. Imagine being a young child, like at least a teen and creating music that makes teen girls wee in joy, and having to deal with your haters, I can see why he had become a douce later on. Still not a fan of him, but I would never do anything to hurt him, maybe a complaint about his plain music, but never, ever hurt him. I'm not only mad at the concert goers but also the managers for having a teenager, a childish teenager who seems to have a lot of joy, and put him on the top of the world. For shame. Now can we have more metal videos loudwire?
On that Metallica video it just shows James being hit with the bottle. Without context that looks bad. However before that bottle was thrown James was mocking Lane Staley and that is what got the crowd mad. I've only ever seen the whole video once.

It really just baffles me how people react when they have a few too many. Throwing bottles at bands, getting in fights in the audience, fighting with security, i’m so glad I’m not one of those people. If a band. Wants to get my attention for any reason I should hope that it’s for something positive that I did. Not trying to hurt them.
Angus Young pinching the guys nose was just too funny.
In 2003 at Papa Roach in Joplin Missouri the crowd split down the middle and went to war with eachother throwing shit. It was fucking crazy people were throwing bottles, shoes, cans, cigarette butts and those empty Co2 cannisters from people doing whipits. But no one ever threw anything on stage.
I seen nofx in London (Canada). People kept throwing crap and Mike said next thing to hit us we are taking song off the set list. They took four song of the set list and said to the crowd “I fucking hate Toronto” walked off stage. I was so mad.

At a NOFX gig in Oslo, Mike was getting sick of this one guy throwing water or beer or something at him through out the first half of the gig. So much so, he jumped into the crowd to deal with him. I can't say what really happened as I was too far away, but yeah. It was a great show anyways. And they didn't remove songs either (as far as I know) ending it with playing the entirety of The Decline.
My favourite reaction to someone having a beer thrown at them on stage was Abbath. He simply said to the guy who threw that beer, I'll buy you another.
One of the more notorious examples involved Sebastian Bach from Skid Row when he jumped in the crowd and fought whoever there stuff at him.

Fantomas played a festival in Australia and the band played dressed in cricket uniforms. Mike Patton encouraged us to throw bottles while he hit them with a plastic cricket bat.

I was at Ozzy front row , threw a joint onstage and Robert Trujio picked it up 🤘👊
It was early 1990. I bought a Slayer bootleg from an ad someone ran in Metal Edge magazine. I think it was the Seasons in the Abyss tour. Anyway, the show was at the Felt Forum in NYC. It was free seat cushion night. During the show, the fans went nuts. They were Slayer fans! What do you expect? They started throwing the seat cushions everywhere. Araya kept saying "You guys are fuckin' unruly! The next time you throw seat cushions at us, let us know so we have time to duck!" Bad ass!!!!!! Wish i woulda been there!!!

To play devil's advocate for the Metallica scene. They were making fun of a lot of other bands ahead of time. Even Nirvana, at Woodstock '94, the same year of Kurt's death. Should the guy have thrown that shoe and possibly injured James Hetfield? No! Though I'm not surprised that it eventually happened. The band member's egos after the Black album and later Load and Reload were on the moon. And they didn't get reality checks until Jason left the band.
some idiot is sueing because he got on stage and tackled a comic and had a knife and boohoo the guards hurt him. someone threw a lighter at geddy lee, left blood runiing down his face and him reeling. but on the other hand a fan tossed a n alexander the great helmet on stage at an iron maiden concert and bruce was running round with a big grin, trying it on before he tossed it back.
I've only seen a couple guys from bands actually jump down off the stage and whoop some ass. Axl was one of them
