CONTENT WARNING: The following article discusses allegations of public masturbation
A Korn concert has been interrupted by one bloke’s, um, extremely horrifying solo performance.
Yep. In a now-viral TikTok clip filmed during Korn’s recent set at New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium, a concertgoer appears to be… taking ‘Freak on a Leash’ far too literally… AKA hand-banging instead of head-banging… in plain view of surrounding punters.
“That cop is brave touching that hand unprotected”
After repeated shouts from nearby fans (and even a drink lobbed at him to cut it TF out), another attendee stepped up from behind and gave the alleged offender a swift smack to put an end to the behaviour. Security and police quickly arrived, dragging the man out of the venue.
While neither Korn, MetLife Stadium, nor local authorities have issued a statement yet, TikTok’s comment section has already done what TikTok does best – AKA memed the incident into oblivion. Highlights include:
- “I thought he was just hitting a crazy air drum solo.”
- “That cop is brave touching that hand unprotected.”
- “Should’ve waited till ‘Adidas’ came on.”
- “Was he buttering his Korn?”
It’s an ugly scene, though. Jokes aside, nobody without something seriously off-kilter is out here doing that shit in front of minors and families at a gig. Hopefully the dude gets the help he clearly needs.
