Chilean fans of Maroon 5 are disappointed after a cold and unenthusiastic concert of the band on Thursday night at the 61st Viña del Mar International Song Festival.
Singer and jury member Denise Rosenthal said that Adam Levine, who insulted the festival afterwards, asked for no one to look him in the eye.
She also claimed that people had to face walls when he entered and left the amphitheatre.
On top of that, the show started 25 minutes late, so hosts María Luisa Godoy and Martín Cárcamo had to fill in while 15 thousand people waited for the band to come on stage.
Their presentation lasted 66 minutes and as it had no interruptions.
The audience, also known as “The Monster” because of their ability to boo an artist out of the stage, could not give them any awards.
On stage, Levine appeared to be bored. He even sang out of tune.
Even though their show managed to win over those present at Quinta Vergara, it failed to please those watching at home.
Upset fans and users took to Twitter to express their dissatisfaction and both Adam Levine and Maroon 5 became Trending Topics, with a wave of memes making fun of the band and its lead singer.
But an angry Levine made news right after the concert was over with two videos.
The first one shows him yelling “that was a TV show (…) not a concert”. The word “shit” can be heard as well.
In the second video he can be heard saying “fucking town” and “assholes” as he went down a flight of stairs.

Their show made Coldplay a Trending Topic, with Twitter users claiming that they would have never behaved, performed or acted the same way Levine and company did.
Even Franz Ferdinand’s Alex Kapranos weighed in. “We are very different types of frontman”, he tweeted.
We are very different types of frontman
