**From Far Out Magazine’s Joe Taysom:**
The trend of fans throwing objects at performers has become increasingly common — and artists are showing less patience for it.
In recent years, performers including Harry Styles, Bebe Rexha and Pink have all dealt with objects being thrown on stage during performances.
In Madrid, Eric Clapton reportedly left before the encore after a vinyl sleeve thrown from the crowd struck him near the end of the show. Spanish reports say the concert had otherwise gone smoothly before the incident.
For some fans, throwing gifts on stage is meant as a gesture of admiration.
For artists — especially older performers still touring at a high level — it increasingly looks like a safety issue.
It raises a bigger question: when did concert audiences start confusing live shows with social media stunts?

Was he saying racist garbage?
Clapton sucks so he deserves it
Maybe it was a fact sheet or encyclopedia
I guess Clappy ain’t God afterall….
🎵 That’s why I say ‚hey man, nice shot’🎵
Slowhand wasn’t quick enough to catch it.
When he was spouting his anti social distancing nonsense during Covid I wondered why we kept forgiving Clapton. From his vile racist rant bad enough that Rock Against Racism was the backlash to celebrating his own boorishness in Wonderful Tonight (actually listen to it sometime) and much more besides he has always been a horrible person. No more.
I heard it was a sheet filled with tips how to properly close a hotel window
Dont throw shit at the musicians on stage. Stupid ass fans.
Why doesn’t Eric Clapton ever shut down his computer? Because it makes him a lot of money when he leaves windows open
Who cares. He’s an asshole
Eric Clapton could have kept his big mouth shut, focused his undeniable talent on his craft, and kept his opinions related to things other than music to himself, but he didn’t.
He should have Laid Low, instead throwing blows at Layla. (Pattie Boyd)

Hopefully it was a big rock
“What the difference between a baby and a bag of cocaine…?”
Such a shame when old racists get smacked in the face.
he would’ve never walked off if he had been hit with a bag of coke

Did he make some Keep Spain White speech or something?
“The former Cream guitarist’s tour…”
Such a strange way to insert a factoid considering it was just two years out of 60+ years of his music career.
„The firmer Cream guitarist“- Cream was like a tiny little part of his career….
The number of people virtue signaling by regurgitating things they’ve read on Reddit about Clapton is embarrassing. Clapton has flaws for sure. But I have no doubt most of you are shitty people too.
I dont care who the artist is, dont throw stuff at them. These comments supporting it are insane.
Eric Clapton is a fool but you just don’t do this to people.
Was there tears ?
You sure it was a fan?
Was it a bag of cocaine? If so, I understand why he had to go backstage immediately.
Campbells soup can
Not a fan if Clapton as a human, but I will never understand the why people pay money to see an artist and do this shit.
Good. Fuck that piece of shit.
oh great, maybe he’ll go on another weird racist anti-vax tirade because of it
Tchouameni is getting out of hand
he could have been hit with much worse things – when fans fill up empty cans & bottles with pee and toss them at a performer – most won’t like that one bit – it was only an act of endearment if it was a Sex pistols show circa 1977 ..
Was it a bag of cocaine?
Blue Dot Fever strikes again!
Maybe it wasn’t a “fan?”
An attendee might not be a „fan“.
