OK so first Dave Grohl pulls bad-ass rocker move, then at Pinkpop Festival 2015 in Holland, John Coffey lead singer David Achter de Molen catches a beer, thrown from the crowd, while crowdwalking, and drinks it! It's a good year for Rock Gods this year.

First of all the assist goes to whomever threw the beer, props to that guy. Second, does he now get panty dropper vision?

+Paul Spoerry Yeah, not so much if what he drank was actually piss!! Pretty awesome move catching the cup, pretty stupid move drinking whatever the hell was inside the cup! Acts should always keep in mind that it's a Rock Festival and there is more piss being carried around in cups than are in actual port-potties, so it would be safe for them to assume that some of that piss might reach the stage! However, if he did drink piss, and survives it, he's got a "I once drank piss at a rock festival story" which would also allow him to increase his cool factor!

Wie geht es dir
Paul Spoerry says
People are pissing in their cups +asotolp?! You must party with different people than I do. lol
asotolp says
+Paul Spoerry Seriously, dude, if you're not seeing piss in cups at Rock festivals, than you simply do not attend Rock festivals, which would be cool for you to admit and would explain your comment! Piss in beer is what happens at all of them! I have been to many, many festivals and pee-cups line the floors because people simply don't want to miss an act, or the lines at the pee stations are too damn long, so they pee in the cup! Shit, I have had people standing next to me, cheering an act, and peeing in their cup at the same time! And, whether there was pee in the cup or not, it was a pretty stupid thing to drink a liquid without knowing the source!
Paul Spoerry says
To be fair, I haven't been to a "rock concert" in ages +asotolp. IMHO 99% of live rock sounds like shit (I saw Robert Plant do The Wall… totally an exception). Plus, I always liked electronic music way more… though I hate that they've gone uber-mega-massive-festival style where the announce the DJ's between sets and people talk over the set and all that nonsense.
asotolp says
+Paul Spoerry Well then, respectfully I would then say, first, you're right, music isn't the best quality at the live shows, but for me it's not a priority, and secondly, I think people would probably have way more respect and decorum at a Plant concert. These days, and I am not kidding, people will defecate and urinate in the most unimaginable places. In fact, people will have sex on top of other peoples feces and urine! The last festival I went was no exception! To be honest, even at my age, I go mostly in order to hang out with friends and listen to one or two my favorite bands, then I leave! More times than not, because these kids that are attending nowadays are super disgusting and disrespectful, I find a desire to leave even before my favorite bands get on.
asotolp says
+Paul Spoerry So, this is why I think that John Coffey's move, although super impressive, was still pretty risky – especially since he's been around long enough to see what goes on at these things!

ROBERT PLANT PREFORMED THE WALL!!!! O.O
I wish I had seen that.
Paul Spoerry says
Oh man… I meant Roger Waters did The Wall +West Kagle. My fingers were going faster than my brain!!! I don't even really care for Pink Floyd all that much (again, I did electronic music primarily… it's not that it's bad, in fact it's good, but not the style of music I would default to) but it was probably the best show I've ever seen. I'd pay a boatload of money to get really good seats if it were to ever come back.
+asotolp Again, I meant Roger Waters, but yes I think you're right about the people. It was an older crowd for one and also not an outside festival style event. The last show I saw was +Pomplamoose and it was in a small venue and AMAZING. But again, not the insane mega-show-festival style event either. (and to be truthful, I wouldn't have drank that cup if it'd been thrown at me… I mean… ew… plus how big a fan are they if they're throwing beer at me?!)

+Paul Spoerry
Aw man, let down.
Pink Floyd is my favorite, and it would have been cool to hear the wall done by Plant. Oh well.
Kim Jong-Un says
+Paul Spoerry what did dave do?
Paul Spoerry says
Supreme leader +Kim Jong-Un how many times do I have to tell you to stop stalking me on the Internet. I'm not like Dennis Rodman.
Kim Jong-Un says
+Paul Spoerry hey pal, you better tell me the source of the video from drave groll or otherwise you will spent some time in one of our peoples republican democratic concentration camps!
Paul Spoerry says
While I admit that your short stature might allow you to sneak up on me on a crowd +Kim Jong-Un I will not be deterred…. mostly because I meditate daily so a "concentration camp" would be a cake-walk for me.
