What just happened at the Global concert?

They came out and took the ones on the stage backstage and one man kept saying to calm down, calm down. Then, MSNBC cut to ads. Any clue?

The way things are in the US right now, nothing would have surprised me. Everyone seems programmed to move at the least hint of trouble and I sure can't blame them.

Glad it wasn't anything serious, although stampedes can be.
