Crowd chant ‘Kanye sucks’ and graffiti toilets

Fans at Bonnaroo yesterday (June 15) were so angry at Kanye West for his delayed performance that they scrawled their anger in spraypaint on the portaloos at the site, angrily chanted his name and pelted glowsticks at the stage during the two-hour delay.

West was due to perform at 2.45am yesterday morning but did not emerge on stage until 4.25am.

Messages on the screens told the crowd the show would be delayed until 3.15am and then delayed again until 3.30am, reports the Associated Press.

more, haha, taken from wikipedia,

“Kanye West was originally supposed to perform at 8:15 PM on Saturday at Which Stage, during Jack Johnson’s 8:00 show at What Stage, but he requested to be changed to What Stage at 2:45 AM[citation needed], the announced reason being that he wanted to perform his set from his recent Glow In The Dark tour after nightfall. The show was delayed until 4:25 AM. Many fans missed Lupe Fiasco, Talib Kweli, and Chali 2na’s respective sets while waiting for Kanye, which would not have happened had the audience been informed of the delay from the outset. Those who had timed their LSD trips to coincide with Kanye’s light show saw their drugs wear off before the show began. During the course of the show West made no attempt to apologize for the delays or even acknowledge them, sticking completely to his scripted set from his tour. This, along with the fact that his set lasted only one hour (instead of the hour and a half he had been listed to do on Which Stage), angered many fans, leading Robert Randolph to proclaim at his set later that day that “Kanye sucks!”. This was also mentioned by Rogue Wave and Broken Social Scene, who pointed out that they would never disrespect their fans in such a way. The slogan “Kanye sucks!” was quickly picked up by disgruntled fans, and chants of “Fuck Kanye” were common throughout the final day’s activities. Even the festival’s wall of graffiti near the entrance soon bore a stern “Kanye sucks” banner. Another banner said “Jay-Z wouldn’t be late”
