TikTok user @amandaooiooi took to social media to express her disappointment with The Script’s concert in Singapore, labeling it as “good music, but damn lame concert.” She highlighted the strict security measures that prevented fans from freely enjoying the music by keeping them in their seats. The TikTok video captured her comparing the concert experience to a “graduation ceremony” where attendees were restricted from dancing and moving around.
@amandaooiooi The Script Singapore concert, good music, but damn lame concert experience cuz security kept everyone AT THEIR SEAT #thescript #singaporetourismboard #singapore ♬ original sound Ooi – Amanda
During the concert, @amandaooiooi observed security personnel using intimidating tactics to deter fans from leaving their seats to dance in empty spaces. Despite initially trying to enjoy the concert near an open area, she and her group were repeatedly directed back to their seats by the security team. She described the stringent enforcement of rules as making the concert experience feel “sterile” and called out the organizers, questioning their knowledge of what a real concert should entail.
The TikTok video quickly gained traction, amassing nearly 75,000 views, with many netizens sympathizing with the security staff. One viewer noted the importance of enforcing boundaries to prevent unauthorized access to paid sections. Another concert-goer echoed @amandaooiooi’s sentiments, describing their own experience at The Script’s concert as “awful,” where everyone stood motionless like “robots.”

Responding to comments from viewers, @amandaooiooi emphasized the need for crowd control and safety but shared evidence of excessive security measures, such as obstructing fans from leaning out of their seats to enjoy the show. She questioned the extent of security personnel’s role in regulating the audience, prompting discussions about who determines their job scope.
