07.26.16 | At Warped Tour maybe 5 years ago someone threw a can at the dude from Gallows and it hit him in the face. So, he stops the song, goes out into the crowd and finds out who it was and punches him in the face. |

07.26.16 | Ryan Adams (I'm lazy so I'm just going to quote an article):
"Singer/songwriter Ryan Adams is apparently not amused by the similarity of his name to veteran Canadian rocker Bryan Adams. At a Ryan Adams concert Tuesday night at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium, someone in the audience yelled out a request for "Summer of '69," a Bryan Adams hit. Ryan Adams, former leader of the band Whiskeytown, reacted with stream of expletives and ordered the house lights turned on, The Tennessean newspaper reported.
"The alt-country musician found the fan who made the joke request, paid him $30 cash as a refund for the show, ordered him to leave, and said he wouldn't play another note until that happened. Ryman general manager Pam Matthews stopped the fan on his way out, "apologized profusely," and allowed him back into the concert. The fan kept Adams' $30."

Vocalist Jon Pettibone of Himsa. Drunk asshole in the pit had allegedly been a little too physical with some kids in the songs prior so Pettibone tells drunk asshole to chill (hint: drunk asshole just gives him the middle finger. smart). Cut to 1:44, Pettibone has enough of drunk asshole's shit and dives right in to whoop his ass. |

07.26.16 | 3 makes it sound like the prick had a real reason to kick the girl into her back without any warning. She was standing there for a total of 5 seconds and didn't film "multiple segments" of the show or anything. Actually it might have been kind of acceptable if he had explained himself afterwards but this loser didn't have the balls to put out any statement at all and just ignored the hundreds of comments on their FB page until the buzz went away.
Also: 11 is human scum millions of levels below all the other folks on this list who might be just douchebags or had a bad day or something |

07.26.16 | At Warped Tour maybe 5 years ago someone threw a can at the dude from Gallows and it hit him in the face. So, he stops the song, goes out into the crowd and finds out who it was and punches him in the face.
i saw something similar to this from a gig off the orchestra of wolves era, they were put on the bill supporting bullet for my valentine and obviously some of the bfmv vans didn't take to them so they started throwing things. A pint glass whizzed past Frank Carters ear during a song and he just spins round "who the fuck was that!?" and goes hunting for the guy to give him a kicking, the guy shits it and hides behind his mates while Frank is going off his head at him. What i thought was even funnier was the band just kept playing as normal as if that sort of thing happened all the time. |

07.26.16 | I don't get why Billie had to apologize and check himself into rehab for 5, seemed to be pretty justified |

07.26.16 | Another good vid, though not on stage.

07.26.16 | I once saw a video of Converge playing in a small venue. A fan climbs on stage and full on fucking tackles Jacob Bannon into the crowd. Security intervenes, tearing the guy off of him and in the chaos, Bannon somehow gets back on stage. All the while the band is still playing. Bannon stands there looking awkward and confused for a moment while searching for his mic. A fan hands it back to him. He says "okay" and then goes right back into playing the song. The complete opposite of going over the top. He was immensely cool about the whole thing. A real pro. |

07.26.16 | Dat lack of Axl Rose tho. There's also this one Kanye one where he wants every single person attending the audience to stand up and then refuses to advance the concert unless this one particular person not standing up does so; the person not standing up was wheelchair bound |

07.27.16 | "The Story So Far's vocalist dropkicks a fan that comes on stage. Probably the most asshole thing I've ever seen."
The fan was standing up on stage there snapchatting the concert, it was relatively deserved. These kids need to know that interrupting a show just for the sake of recording a show isn't even remotely okay. |
50iL
07.27.16 | "These kids need to know that interrupting a show just for the sake of recording a show isn't even remotely okay."
