Finch Halts Frankfurt Show to Eject Alleged Groper, Video Goes Viral

The viral clip underscores his push to enforce safety at shows.

Overview

  • During his October 10 arena tour stop at the sold-out Festhalle Frankfurt, Finch stopped the set after spotting a man allegedly groping female fans.
  • He signaled to the affected woman to confirm her discomfort, then called the man forward and had venue security escort him out.
  • Addressing the crowd, he urged male attendees to protect women and told female fans to use a hand signal to alert security.
  • Finch posted the ejection to his social channels, where it drew millions of views and broad praise, including from Katja Krasavice.
  • Coverage also highlighted his closing "give a punch" remark as a problematic message, even as the concert continued without further trouble.
