Storytime!
TLDR; Someone who sqeezed themselves into the front of the crowd fainted twice just before the buildup and climax of Turbines/Pigs
I arrived about 30min early before doors opened to this show, unfortunately there was already a line down to the street. This caused me to get a partial view as the guy in front of me kept "hogging enough space for two" and had his phone out most of the time further blocking my view. I'm pretty short so I try to get there early as I know being in front almost never bothers anyone behind me (I'm 5'2"). After Cameron Picton (from 'black midi') who opened as 'Camera Picture' finished, the guy who fainted later decided to squeeze in some areas. Just as BC,NR was starting to play, he was behind me but further pushed himself to just behind the front row by the rail. He mostly had his phone out and was recording for his snapchat stories and managed to stay there until he passed out.
It was a warm day out; just about mid-80s and it seems some were doozing around as there wasn't really much security, aid, or service for any beverages. Not all venues provide this, and Ferris Wheelers is one of those. At around 7:15 As the pause before the build up of the climax to Turbines/Pigs was happening, Lewis Evans (Flute) and May Kershaw (Keyboards) noticed alot of people looking down at someone near the front. This was that same person who has now fainted (If you listen closely, you can also hear them fall over). May asked for security which never came, although the one who fainted then snapped back up very quickly and said he was "fine" but was provided water. Everyone around was looking towards him to make sure he was feeling fine, it seems he also tried to deny the water but then accepted. After opening the bottle, he struggled to take a sip, then again fell over and fainted, this time fully on the ground and not getting back up. May asked again for security or medical aid, which weren’t near the situation. At this point everyone was worried but also looking down at the same man that probably cut in front of them. Security which was at the back of the venue finally and dragged him to get some aid. The band members decided to give the audience some water and overall gave all of their water bottles on the stage to the crowd. May then continued onto the song.
At the end of the song, she commented "Is everyone feeling alright?" The audience all yells together, "yeah!" then continuing the set for the night.
(Someone on reddit mentioned it was drugs they passed out from, but idk about that...)
(Cute how the thumbnail generated is May giving out her water, she was drinking tea as her beverage)
(Updated info as apparently security did take him to get some aid, thanks to 'seamobloo_' for that info)
