Huge crowd gatherings are always best enjoyed from afar.
This was in 1999 but if you go back to the stories of Motley Crue, Guns N'Roses, Metallica etc. during the 80s they are not too dissimilar
They were the guys on stage (and I would add not ordinary people, high on fame and dozens of different drugs) meaning separated from the crowd both in terms of height and distance and there are testimonies of them becoming extremely scared and agitated by the crowd pushing and charging each other and the barriers.
All in all, the story telling about surviving it and being able to enthusiastically tell people you know about the scare and relief is much better than actually living such experiences (although of course you have to live them to be able to do so)
Another documentary about the St. Louis riot in 1991 during Guns n Roses UYI Tour :

- panick21_ 2y ago> Huge crowd gatherings are always best enjoyed from afar. That's just limiting your experience. I have been in plenty of huge crowds that were incredibly fun. And that includes huge death metal concerts. Picking out a few exceptions about riots isn't just the usual experience, at festivals.
- instagib 2y agoTake a look at “electric daisy carnival Las Vegas 2024” that’s been going for years now. Latest number was 500k people attending per day on a race track field stadium. Yoga and pool party during the day then party with live music/DJ all night long. Good time to be a helicopter pilot charging for rides to the show and able to see the views.
