Over the weekend, satire and rcallty mirrored themselves a little too closely.

On Saturday Night Live’s season finale, host Andy Samberg produced a pitch perfect excoriation of contemporary EDM culture. lie portrayed an overpaid Ill named “Dawineii,” likely modeled after Swedish superstar DJ Tim Bergling, a.ka. Avicii, and spooled a culture where thc DJ does little actual music-making, and the audience just waits for the bass to drop. When the bass does drop, several fans’ heads literally explode.

That same night, in Toronto, Bergling played a gig at Rogers Centre, where 29 people were hospitalized.

While no heads exploded, seven! coneertgoers were thought to have become ill after Thverdosthg” on alcohol and/or drugs. Toronto EMS claimed they transported io people to the hospital, but the Rogers Centre also had its owii medics on standby for the sold-out, all ages show, and other reports claim 29 people were sent to the hospital, after the venue become ovenchelmed” with sick fans. ‘lhcrc i’as one arrest.

‘!‘hcre were no reported deaths, but member did place the blame with the promoter for making it all ages. In a press release, he said:

‘This only proves that it doesn’t matter whether these events are held on privately owned or government lands, they are dangerous events to hold as ‘all-ages,’ allowing kids to be present.”

Bergling didn’t mention the incident in his tweets from the night, but it’s possible he didn’t find out about it.
