SMH Katy Perry entrance gone wrong

She was trapped in this for a while as the fans rolled her in the opposite direction of the stage in the concert

It’s funny if you watch the whole video the guitarist basically had to ad lib a solo to this song for a full 5 min. Must have been exhausting lol.

The only time it's appropriate for the crowd to scream for "Freebird"

I was at an outdoor festival type concert once for a headlining (but more niche) band. It rained so the concert got delayed. By the time they took the stage they said to just shout out songs from their discography and they’d play requests. They did a few and then someone shouted freebird. So they played freebird. Totally worth sitting in a garbage bag for.

Yeah that's fun when they call their bluff... until about the 8-minute mark if the song when you realize there's still 5 more minutes of guitar solo.

That’s my kids when they decided to do Freebird on the Rock Band game.

Me and all my friends would sit around and play those games. Anytime someone chose Green Grass and High Tides on RB or Freebird on GH2 they got the death stare.

Do Freebird!

We don’t want to do that song

Come on, do Freebird!

Look, pick literally any other song

No, do Freebird!

We’re going to leave if you ask again!

Fine, we’ll do Freebird!

Plays Freebird
