7 Portraits of Top Musicians Who Are Willing to Stop Concerts for the Safety of Their Fans. From Linkin Park to Green Day

An unfortunate incident occurred with the death of 8 people during a music festival held by the famous American rapper, Travis Scott. The incident was truly something that nobody wanted. However, during the riots that occurred at the music festival, there was no effort from the rapper to stop the event so that people could retreat and make room for those who fainted. 

This is truly heartbreaking, as the fans who went there to enjoy and support their idols did not receive the appropriate response from Travis Scott when the chaos happened. Despite the fact that the artist was on stage and could see the situation below.

In contrast to what Travis Scott did during the music festival on November 6th. These 7 musicians are willing to stop and some will cancel concerts if the audience cannot be controlled anymore. So, to satisfy your curiosity, here are 7 portraits of these caring musicians!

First, coming from former One Direction member Harry Styles. As reported through buzzfeed.com In 2019, Harry temporarily stopped his concert and asked about the condition of the audience. After he found out that there were audience members who were struggling, he said he would send help to their location and asked other audience members to slowly move back and give space.

Second, Logic, who is also a rapper like Travis Scott. In 2017, this rapper stopped his concert when he found out that there was a fainting audience member. He then said to the attending audience, "You have to make sure you drink water and stay hydrated. People here have been waiting for hours, all day long. I know, I understand you guys, but... it's not worth waking up in the hospital tomorrow," as reported on buzzfeed.com

Thirdly, Linkin Park, a famous American band, held a concert in London in 2001. One of their fans fell down and Chester Bennington shouted, "Lift him up! Lift him up now!" and Mike Shinoda responded, "We must prioritize safety. No one should be hurt. That's number one."

Fourthly, during one of Green Day's concerts, the audience seemed to become aggressive. Billie Joe Armstrong stopped singing and said to them, "That's very inappropriate right now. These kids just want to have fun. You don't have to hit them, right?"

Fifthly, rapper A$AP Rocky held a concert in 2019. Then he realized that people were colliding with each other. He asked the music to stop and shouted, "lift those girls up, pass those girls, what's wrong with you?" After that, he told the audience that he wouldn't continue until everyone stood up.

Lastly, Niall Horan. During his concert in Argentina in 2018, the singer stopped after seeing the audience getting crushed. He said, "Your safety is our responsibility." Did Travis Scott say the same thing?
