Industry Dynamics
Incidents of audience members throwing objects at performers have drawn attention across live music, with Mon Laferte's eye injury in Las Vegas the previous week being a notable recent example. Artists increasingly address crowd conduct directly as concert audiences grow more active with phones and onstage contact.
Fans attending Summit's shows should expect the artist to discourage phone-filming and crowd contact on stage. Concertgoers who want to avoid being ejected or injured should keep objects out of their hands during performances.
The takeaway
Performers are increasingly asking crowds to respect their space and safety, and attendees can help by keeping hands, phones, and objects to themselves during sets. Staying behind the barrier and avoiding throws protects both the artist and the people around you.
