**HEADLINE: COMMON SENSE PREVAILS? SEPULTURA FINAL CONCERT SPARKS OUTRAGE OVER "DISRESPECTFUL" CROWD BEHAVIOR**

**SÃO PAULO** – Look, I’m all for a nostalgic farewell, but common sense apparently died with the last guitar riff at Sepultura’s final show. Everyone’s posting those "emotional" slow-motion clips of the band taking their final bow, but let’s talk about what I saw with my own two eyes from the bleachers.

Why are we pretending it’s normal for grown adults to start a full-blown mosh pit *during the acoustic intro*? The band hadn’t even hit the first power chord, and some yahoo in a faded '90s shirt was already trying to start a circle pit. That’s not passion, that’s a lack of reading the room. It’s like showing up to a funeral and trying to start a conga line.

And don't get me started on the light show. I don’t care if it's the "final chapter" — blinding people with strobes for three hours straight isn’t a tribute, it’s a public health hazard. My cousin’s kid had to leave because of a migraine. Where’s the common sense in forgetting that not everyone wants to have a seizure to prove they’re a "true fan"?

Plus, the prices for a "historic" T-shirt? R$200 for a piece of cotton that’s going to fall apart after one wash. That’s not legacy, that’s a cash grab. We all love the band, but common sense says you don’t exploit the very people who made you famous just because it’s your "last rodeo." If you ask me, the real Sepultura spirit died when they started treating fans like ATMs. But hey, that’
