Our special podcast report goes inside the nightmare of Astroworld

There’s also a discussion with concert-safety expert Paul Wertheimer, who believes the only way to put an end to concert tragedies is to bring criminal charges against organizers. “When the concert industry gets a wake-up call,” he says, “they hit the snooze button every time.”complexities of his brand

, the state of festival culture in the U.S., the rise of moshing and stage-diving at rap shows, how the Astroworld tragedy might change the course of music, and much more in a discussion with host Brian Hiatt. “I’m sure there’s a Ph.D. thesis to be written about all of the different layers of socio-political and cultural and racial shifts that are implied by the punk ethos being introduced to hip hop music,” Ihaza says.

I would say the answer is no. Not the first time this has happened, remember The Who concert in Cincinnati?

If you mean listen by charging the concert goer even more money “for safety” yeah they will

If u pay them enough yeah.

What, to not listen to crap music?

LOL. The concert industry ? U2, the Stones & Taylor Swift etc. have no trouble with their stadium show's. This is about those artists & their entourage who have no clue what they are doing & are just focused on the $$$

it wouldn't make sense if the one's who broke into astroworld had tickets. How much of a contributiin did they make..If there's an enclosure, they'd have to monitor how many enter it, that's common sense. emergency gates on a crowd barrier enclosure. Useless if crushing in middle

Nothing will change like all the times before.

Nope

I thought The Who concert 12/3/79 was the wake up call?
