Fan throws object at Bryan’s guitarist during Tacoma Dome concert
During his concert at the Tacoma Dome in Washington, Zach Bryan paused his performance to address a disruptive fan who threw an object on the stage, hitting his guest guitarist. The country singer stopped mid-song, picked up the object, and sternly addressed the crowd.
“Who threw this? Who was it?” Bryan asked, scanning the audience. After giving attendees time to identify the culprit, he warned, “Don’t throw s— at concerts, huh? And if you guys do know who threw it, you need to get ‘em outta here, if we ever find out who did it.”
Bryan resumes the show after addressing the incident
While the object’s origin and purpose remained unclear, Bryan resumed the concert shortly after delivering his message. The singer has emphasized respect at his shows, joining a growing list of artists calling out fans for unsafe behavior during live performances.

LaPaglia criticized Bryan’s lack of public response, calling his silence “deafening” and implying she had evidence to back her allegations if he denied them.
