One of the fans is grabbing the girl. The crowd is trying to drag the…the bassist into the audience. Uh oh. Courtney has fallen into the audience. The crowd’s ripping her clothes apart.
Guy in Crowd #2: She’s alright.
Guy in Crowd: I mean, a girl express herself – how dare she! (Laughs). These Americans think they can come over here and do what they want – well, you’re certainly mistaken! They’re supposed to be like, ahhhhhh.
Guy in Crowd: Well, the band won’t come back on. Let’s trash the stage.
Guy in Crowd: Well, I deserve a slug. I won’t forget now.

Girl in Crowd: What is your name? I forgot.
Guy in Crowd: Paul.
Girl in Crowd: Oh, ok.
Guy in Crowd: We’re even.
CL: You wouldn’t…no…you wouldn’t do it to a guy. I don’t think it’s fair. I mean, if it was a girl doing it, it would be one thing, but it was really scary, you guys gave me bruises and called me, like, a c*nt and stuff. It was…really made me cry.
Guy in Crowd #2: Just play some music!
CL: I don’t understand – is that an English thing? I…
