its one thing to willingly make yourself a target, but another to put your friends in the crossfire without their consent. Not just Jack but their crew, fans, venue staff, etc
well firstly, you are the one who just said:
that is what I was responding to.
but whatever, if I respond to your most recent comment you are copying and pasting everywhere, you're being a bit naive if you think safety didn't factor into the decision at all, or that any of these people couldn't be targeted. There are whackos out there who could be targeting anyone for any reason and being on stage is a vulnerable place to be (see dimebag darrel, for example). And if something like that happens, it's not just the target in danger, but everyone in the vicinity including the entire venue. People are likely to get trampled while fleeing, see just about any active shooter situation with hundreds or thousands of people crammed together.
