    I have to agree.   I imagine a security guard at a concert has little ability to impact what happened at AstroWorld.    People are going to sneak in or misbehave knowing that they can easily run or mix in with the other 50k people.   Maybe the first person gets caught, but not when multiple people do it at one time.  So many people sneak into the PJ GA section by keeping their wristbands loose and sharing them to sneak friends in.  

    Not saying there aren't things that can be done.  
    Then add booze and drugs to the mix...whst could wrong.

    Too bad for the folks...especially the poor 9 year old is in an induced coma because of his dumbass father.  Who in their right mind would put their child in that kind of environment...father of the year.

    Many of the PJ fans bring their little ones to events. Read above your post.

    There is a tiktok video circulating about a PJ Roskilde "connection" to the Travis Scott concert.  It shows some video of Scott wearing a Binaural shirt and how Binaural shirts were being sold at Roskilde. 

    Also...they were comparing the Binaural eyeball graphic to some of the effects at Scott's concert.

    The video said that 8 died at Roskilde though....trying to make a connection to the 8 dying at Scott's concert.

    Oh boy.  That eyeball and Illumanati references again most likely.

    There is an ongoing phenomenon in rap culture that to make it, you need to make a deal w the Illumanati.  Bloods run the rap game pretty well so maybe that is how the Illumaniti thing started?

    I think it's funny that the article they show clearly say 9 died at Roskilde yet the narrator says "8"

    He says "died at venue" so 8 is correct.  This is what people do and get tons of views.  Put stupid coincidences together and BOOM!  Home made conspiracies!!!

    8 and eyeballs.  And I always thought that Binaural was a picture of the Nebula...

    travis scott went to dave and busters after the show. this is before he found out people died, but still. if i witnessed a crowd surge and people injured the last thing i would do is go play video games. at least not until i knew people were going to be okay.

    His crowds are like that every time though.  It's nothing new.  He encourages you to get rowdy.

    Satan and the Illumanati go hand in hand.  It is one crazy rabbit hole to go down if you have time.

    Rappers and Illumanati.

    Enjoy.

    Yep.  Never taken a young one to an actual PJ show but ACL is safe for any age if you do it right.   In 2014 we were never within five feet of another human it felt like.  We owned the perimeter!   Plus those trees always give nice shade.

    So sad.  Still can't believe the guys went back to playing these.  Hoping they figured they might as well take the money (because someone else will) and try to do something good with it.  They must pay extremely well, feels like the majority of recent tours have been planned around festival dates.
