During a local show for Mississippi Deathcore unit VÆN, a so called “elderly” man was knocked out by a hardcore dancer. And, of course, there’s video evidence of this which is now going viral along with the following statement from the band:
“We do not condone the intentional targeting of human beings, but we also do not encourage senior citizens to enter our mosh pits. This is the second time this has happened during our performances with two separate drunken elderly men. Enter the pit at your own discretion. We are not responsible for your choices to enter, or the actions occurring during said choice.
“He was completely okay after this happened, he was bleeding pretty badly but recovered in the restroom, and came right back out and was trying to mess with kids dancing in the pit again right after. He was warned to stay out of the moshing area numerous times by bands, crowd members, and staff at the venue.”
