A fan who attended the Billy Talent concert that was disrupted when several thousand people pushed through the fences says that despite the chaos, which saw him get 'sucker punched,' the band 'put on one hell of a show.'
FILE - Benjamin Kowalewicz lead singer of Billy Talent talks to the crowd during their performance at the Danforth Music Hall, in Toronto on Saturday, August 11, 2018, as part of a benefit concert, organized by the band to raise money for the victims of the Danforth Shooting.
Jasper Davies, a 36-year-old life-long Billy Talent fan, says he got sucker-punched by a drunken fan when people started flooding in before the show. "We looked behind us 15 minutes later and the line was well back across the road and down the street towards the hospital," he said."Almost makes it hard to believe the gates got crashed at all," Gorman said.
