Foo Fighters Fans Act Like Huge Babies After Weather Ends Show Early In New York

The entitlement society was on full display last night after dangerous lightning forced the New York Mets home Citi Field stadium to pull the plug on the Foo Fighters concert halfway through their set. 

The decision -- which many knew was most likely going to happen, including frontman Dave Grohl, who warned fans that bad storms were coming in but that they would "play as long as they possibly could" -- was met with unhinged criticism by some fans after the show was called 90 minutes into the Foo Fighters set. 

"We're gonna play as much as we can until someone says it's not safe for you, OK? So just so you know, we're up here doing our thing for you, until it's not safe for you. For the time being, we're gonna sing this s*** now," Grohl said before hitting the opening chords of their massive hit ‘Everlong,’ which they moved up from the Encore so that they could at least have fans hear it. Unfortunately, 25 seconds in, a Citi Field official came out and stopped the show. 

FANS ARE FURIOUS AT FOO FIGHTERS OVER LIGHTNING CANCELLING SHOW

"This f'n sucks… believe me, if I could do something about it, I would just f'n hold tight - everybody go get safe and if we can come back and play we will, but listen, you know we f'n love you," Grohl told the Citi Field fans during last night's opening date of the band's "Everything or Nothing At All" stadium tour. As the torrential downpour and lightning continued, the show was officially called an hour later. 

There's no doubt that all the fans were bummed about the show's cancelation, which only hurt more as ticket prices continued to become ridiculously high and parking at CitiField was anywhere from an additional $60-$120 more. 

First, you had some true ‘geniuses’ complaining on the band's social media accounts that the show said it would happen "Rain or Shine." It's truly quite stunning, however, the number of people that lack reading comprehension and don't understand that Rain or Shine doesn't include the words "lightning" as well.

Others that by no means have a major in meteorology began comparing the Foo Fighters being forced to postpone their show to Taylor Swift of all people - because "Taylor played 3 and a half hours in the rain!" Once again, rain is not lightning, but let's not let facts get in the way of things here.

Others were upset that they only got 90 minutes of their scheduled 3-hour set, which worked out to 13 of 21 songs. 

Apparently, 90 minutes of Foo Fighters stopped by potentially deadly lightning wasn't enough for some. Or for Twitter user David Glick, he must have been in the bathroom the whole time because he claimed the band "did not perform" at all!  

FANS COMPLAINTS ARE ONLY GOING TO PUSH BANDS AWAY

The comments from the Foo Fighters socials continued on with irrational demands and truly displayed the new wave of Entitlement and "I'm Owed This…" society that we have seen only grow more in the past 4 years or so.

What none of these complainers understand though is that it's not like Dave Grohl or the band DIDN'T WANT to play. In 2016, Grohl fell and broke his ankle on stage and came back out and performed on a folding chair ten minutes later - because he's the epitome of alternative rock, he was in Nirvana for crying out loud!

However, as we've seen with other bands, musicians and artists - eventually the complaining will become so much that it turns the artist away from the fans. It's just not worth it anymore, because it's exhausting to try and please everyone when, in reality, as Dave Grohls' friends in Everclear sing - you can't be "Everything to Everyone." 

If this entitlement mindset is going to continue and they are going to spew ridiculous demands at CitiField, Ticketmaster and the Foo Fighters and demand a free make-up show as if it's no big thing (the band still might do that by the way, but on their own accord) then eventually you are going to be the reason that bands say the hell with this and limit the amount of touring that they do. 

So keep the complaining up but don't be surprised with the end result. Oh, and this goes without saying, but this is exactly why fans should always get there early and see the openers - because even though you "only" got 90 minutes of the Foo Fighters, you would have been able to see Wolfgang Van Halen and The Pretenders play their entire music sets, which were also included in that expensive concert ticket you paid for.
