cellphones, raunchy sex toys, a massive cheese wheel and even the ashes of a fan’s mother during live performances.But one band decided to take matters into their own hands and start their show with a public service announcement — telling their fans that proper etiquette actually starts before the concert even begins.And that includes showering.Dethklok — a death-metal group that originated as a fictional band from the Adult Swim animated TV series “Metalocalypse” — showed a video to the audience that urged people to be mindful of their personal hygiene at concerts.A clip of the video was posted to TikTok and has garnered 3.2 million views and 563,7000 likes.“Send this to your smelly friends,” user @rawrxdkev wrote in the video description.The video shows the Adult Swim character Facebones spinning around and giving a melodramatic speech about how to properly behave at Dethklok’s shows.“Etiquette is a French word that means, ‘how to not act like a stupid a – – hole!” the terrifying animated face screamed at the crowd.Facebones started off with concert hygiene, asking fans if they ever go to a show and stand next to a person who “smells like BO and old shoes and s – – t” — and if they don’t know what he’s talking about, that person “might be you.”“Take a shower at some point in your life and THEN come to the show,” the animated logo exclaimed.Send this to your smelly friends #concert #ettiquette #ettiquettetips #hygiene #raves #concerts #festivals #babymetalworldtour2023 #concerttok A 2021 study revealed that listening to metal music increases BO by 87% — and fans are glad the issue is finally being addressed.“It’s crazy that it’s gotten to this point but at least they did it in the best way possible,” one person.
