🎵 Well it’s one for the money, Two for the show, Three to get ready, Now throw, cat, throw 🎵
Why...
Have people started flinging things at stage performers? Adele recently at her Las Vegas concert dared anyone to throw anything at her and see what happened! Well, it’s not exactly a new phenomenon. Originally performers were paid by money thrown at them on stage. I assume the more that was thrown the more grateful they were. Tom Jones has had enough knickers thrown at him to supply a decent sized Marks and Spencer store and no doubt Ozzy Osbourne has enough headless bats to build a wall. Recently the objects have ranged from a lemon at Arianne Grande (is that a subtle comment), a dildo at Lil Nas X, a mobile phone lobbed at Drake, a teddy at Lady Gaga and weirdest of all, the urn of a fan’s dead mother’s ashes tossed at Pink! (Before that someone tossed her a Brie de Meaux cheese)! There are three issues here that worry me. Firstly, who goes to a concert with a massive roundel of cheese or even a funeral urn as something suitable to toss at a performer. Secondly, with supposed security at these events how on earth do they get in? Thirdly, don’t the people sitting next to them think this is a tad unusual?
