it looks like there are multiple points of entry, so to speak. Im guessing those structures every X feet are screens for people to see the concert way in the back, so there's surely some sort of way to conduct order if things go bad.

No. Absolutely not. This should not be allowed.
Venues security struggle with controlling crowds in organised places with far smaller numbers. This is just a disaster waiting to happen.

that's the thing about living in a country where the economic inequality is so abysmal: there's always risk, and some situations (such as crowded, open events) are riskier than others. there'll definitely be a LOT of robberies but people are very much aware of it considering all the memes, and most of them are taking a calculated risk bc the possibility of watching such a huge show live outweighs the cons.

for me, the huge crowd is far worse than the risk of losing my phone (I have a robber's phone anyways lol), even in open spaces I get pretty claustrophobic when surrounded by too many people.

só acho que o povo quer mto ser oprimido e passa do ponto. Não tem nada de errado de admitir que um evento desse porte é perigoso, principalmente no Brasil. Show do Alok foi um festival de arrastão.
Eu não me meto nessas furadas

qualquer evento de grande porte é perigoso, Taylor Swift fez seu show caríssimo e privado e deu em morte, por exemplo. não tem nada a ver com querer ser oprimido, até pq quem mora em um país de terceiro mundo, a menos que tenha muitos privilégios ou seja totalmente desligado da realidade, inevitavelmente vai ter que lidar com opressões sociais. o ponto é que existe uma grande diferença entre um brasileiro pontuar as questões do evento (que no fim das contas são irrelevantes pra a discussão aqui pq quem vai certamente enxerga pros >>>> abismo >>>> contras) vs. um gringo cu seco querer pagar de expert na logística de um tipo de evento que já tem rolado há eras aqui no país. esse tipo de evento, por mais arriscado que seja, é uma maravilha pois proporciona uma puta oportunidade pra pessoas que JAMAIS teriam acesso a um show desse porte (e oportunidade de trabalho tb, pq muita gente que precisa vai garantir uma renda significativa por conta desse show). quem vai, vai 100% ciente dos riscos que corre e gringo recalcado tem nada que vir dar ( ... )

exato! quantas vezes aqui msm eu já não vi gringo falando coisas do tipo "ai nossa mas o brasil não é super perigoso? ai não sei hein eu não viajaria sei lá" e eu não posso ter pé atrás agora quando alguém vem comentar da segurança e infraestrutura?
