Chair Hurled: Treaty Oak Revival's Plea
25 Sep
Summary
- Band urges fans to stop throwing objects during 'Boomtown' performances.
- A chair thrown into crowd injured a fan at a recent concert.
- Previous incidents include thrown trash cans and beer cans hitting band.
Treaty Oak Revival has issued a direct plea to their fans, urging them to cease throwing objects, particularly hard items, into the crowd or onto the stage during their performances of the song 'Boomtown.' This appeal follows a recent concert in Charlotte, North Carolina, where a chair was reportedly hurled into the audience, resulting in one fan requiring hospitalization.
Singer Sam Canty, in a video message posted last week, stated the band is unhappy with the videos circulating and explicitly condemned the throwing of hard objects. While encouraging the customary beer showers and enthusiastic atmosphere, Canty stressed that causing harm is unacceptable and not condoned by the group. This follows other reported incidents, including tossed trash cans and Canty himself being struck by a beer can in September 2025.
The issue of fans throwing items has become increasingly prevalent at country music concerts over the past two years. Braxton Keith, another artist, previously halted a show to address similar behavior, calling it unacceptable. Treaty Oak Revival is scheduled to perform in Darien Center, New York, and Cincinnati this upcoming weekend, hoping for a more controlled environment.
In earlier comments, Canty acknowledged the band receives criticism and detractors, viewing it as motivation. He maintains that the band's music resonates with a large audience, and personal preference should not detract from their success.
