It appears the legal ramifications stemming from Travis Scott’s Astroworld festival, which ended in tragedy back in Nov. 2021, are continuing to play out.
On Wednesday, it was reported that the top lawyer representing Live Nation, one company out of the many that have been named in several suits, is now pushing back against an upcoming documentary centering around the devastating event.

Directed by Charlie Minn, Concert Crush: The Travis Scott Festival Tragedy is set to feature “interviews with several Astroworld survivors and witnesses” and “other attorneys representing victims,” with special screenings planned across various cities in Texas, according to Rolling Stone. However, in a new letter, Live Nation’s top attorney Neal Manne argued that the project could “taint the jury pool,” and raised concerns about the participation of Riccardo Ramos, who serves as co-producer for the film and attorney for 20 victims in the case.
“The involvement of plaintiffs’ lawyers in the film, and the publicity the filmmakers and producers are trying to generate for it, raise significant issues about efforts to taint the jury pool,” the letter read in part.
