Everyone Wants to Get Front of Stage
When people rush up to the stage -- what we call FOS -- those who
are in the very front row get
jammed against the barrier in front of the stage.
Imagine being pushed from behind by 5,000 other people!
If you're small, front of stage can be a very unpleasant place.
We've seen many concert-goers overwhelmed by the crowd.
Concert security people sometimes have to help patrons over the
barrier and hand them over to Rock Medicine.
When they've caught their breath, security takes them
back to the main hall. If this happens to you, we recommend
that you try to find a less crowded place where you
can sit down. You may want to find a less noisy spot
out in a hallway and get a drink of water.
We escort people who require more excessive examination or
rest to the main medical area where they are checked out by
a doctor and other medical staff.
