Is Coachella for the Prawn Sandwich Brigade?

first things first, if you dont know what the term "prawn sandwich brigade" means, it is basically a term that describes "unvocal fans" or ppl that show up to sporting events or concerts "just to be there"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prawn_sandwich_brigade

ok guns n roses reunited for the first time in 23 years and headlined coachella

i personally know ppl that attended and saw youtube videos, and the way the audience treats the band is FUCKING DISGUSTING

THE LEVEL OF DISRESPECT THAT THE AUDIENCE SHOWS TOWARDS GNR IS ABSOLUTELY GROSS

IF I WAS THE BAND, ID SAY FUCK YOU TO THE AUDIENCE AND LEAVE

Is "prawn sandwich brigade" your own term or is that a common phrase? Because wow that's a mouthful

I thought Coachella was a fashion show. See and be seen.

cochella looks so shitty haha. big festivals like that normally get pretty lame, at least in terms of the people that show up to them. when i go to music festival i wanna be around a bunch of friendly hippies trippin their asses off. not a bunch of drunk city bros, that just go to start a mosh pit at skrillex or whatever shit theyre listening to these days.

I understand that Coachella probably was the wrong venue for GNR to play at, but still compared to any other artist on that shit lineup, GNR are fucking legends

All those other shit bands that were on that line up were talentless and shit

That audience should have considered it a privilege to see GNR live

Again, the level of disrespect that the audience showed towards GNR was absolutely disgusting

maybe they were being disrespectful cause they weren't expecting a fat fuck full of taco bell who can't sing his own songs properly anymore to safe his life.

People who are on their phones record an entire concert and so annoying and stupid. Pay some respect to the artist and just fuckin listen to them. Go to a concert to see your favorite band live, not to "be there" and show all your shitty videos to your friends who couldn't give a duck you went to a big boy concert

are you guys saying that old bands lose their chops and become ineffective?

Ozzy still plays massive stadiums and they got to stick a pole up his ass to even stand up on stage

Coachella is a joke. I wish I had made it out there pre 2010 when it was still decent and not a total brofest/fashion show.

fighting the world about the how your taste in music is better than everyone else's is not going to get you anywhere, ever. I don't understand why you're so hurt about this it's not like the entire fucking planet likes rock music.

he's not entitled, he's either delusional or delirious. I guess both is an option but yeah you might wanna brush up on some English bud.

Op were you even at coachella? Did you really think that you could make assumptions based of off a video you saw from coachella? Honestly, gnr was a fine band they had some good songs too but they are old and irrelevant now you need to get over it.

Also stop trying to force your opinions on people, if they don't like gnr like you do deal with it. For example I don't like cars but I don't go around telling people to get rid of their cars because I don't like them. You need to grow up and learn to choose your battles.
