All-American Rejects Pause KROQ Holiday Set to Aid Fainting Fan

Fan-shot video captured the frontman personally coordinating aid.

Overview

  • The band stopped "Gives You Hell" mid-song during KROQ’s Almost Acoustic Christmas at the Kia Forum on Dec. 13.
  • Frontman Tyson Ritter called for EMTs and security, directed the crowd to make space, and checked on the woman in the pit.
  • He handed off his guitar, brought water to the fan, and asked the audience for sugary snacks as staff reached her.
  • Security lifted the attendee over the barricade and escorted her out, after which the band resumed and finished the song.
  • KROQ’s account reposted coverage without additional comment, and no official update on the fan’s condition has been reported.
