Massive respect goes to anyone who is down-to-earth and observant enough to bring a halt to their own concert to stop abusive behaviour in the crowd. Plug in your headphones before you play this in the office, it is explicit.
Aaron Lewis stopped abruptly, mid-song, to reprimand a group in the crowd who had hoisted a young teenage girl up to crowd surf and were taking advantage of the situation.
Music blogger Cassiopia Demers witnessed it from just a few rows back. Demers, who is known as KC Cassie, said it was clear that the crowd was groping and pinching the teen, and that the girl wanted to be put down.
Now we don’t advocate beating violence ordinarily but if the harassment was bad enough that the lead singer stopped performing to yell at you at a Staind concert, perhaps you do deserve a light beating.
Talk about taking advantage… Good on you Aaron! What a great human being.
