Why are people pushing this racial violence by nazis at the gorge narrative? From what I gather those 2 incidents at the gorge involved unrelated people in different areas of the venue, neither victim could identify who attacked them. There was a guy at the Gorge with a swastika tattoo who was photographed at some point before the shows , apparently that was all it took for this hyperbole. As of yesterday "No suspects have been identified. We’re exploring all possibilities but have developed no links. The persons who were involved with the nitrous (including the one seen on social media with the swastika tattoo) were identified and questioned by deputies but not arrested. None of those persons can be linked to the assaults. We’re still asking concert goers to let us know if they witnessed either of the assaults and can describe the suspects."

Nitrous is thought to be involved as well, the very few eyewitnesses have said that it was a guy who was seen selling gas, some online even saying that an attempted stealing of a tank was involved. These are rumors and should be treated as such.
The real story is that 2 people were attacked, we don't know why, or who by.

Why and what do you all want Phish to say about it? "Hey we heard there was some violence, we don't know the whole story but we just want to say don't do that... be nice..." ?

These 2 incidents of violence at the Gorge are disgusting, but to make that entire weekend about those two incidents is even more disgusting. I was there for 4 days and have been going to the Gorge for over 15 years, as always I was/am happy I went and had an amazing time at one of the most beautiful venues in the country.
