During the performance, it was noticed by the crowd that the band's Black Crowe character was dressed as Uncle Sam. As per the Britannica encylopedia website, Uncle Sam is a popular symbol for the United States of America.

Chris Robinson, as per an exclusive TMZ article, in response to this chant, stated to the crowd:"Thanks for the geography lesson...I don't know what you have to be so proud of right now."This dissing by the singer led to booing from sections of the audience, with some even leaving the concert altogether. Robinson then hit back at the crowd for booing, stating:"some of us have real faith. And for those of your f---ing booing us, some of us are not afraid. And we are most assuredly are not f---ing ignorant, so thank you!"This event at the Black Crowes concert has generated reactions online since then, with some criticising Chris Robinson and the band, while others defended his actions:"Anyone going to a black crowes show should know by now that Chis doesn’t give af and likes to speak his mind." one netizen reacted. "Seriously? That’s like showing a picture of a donut and lecturing them to eat healthy food after the crowd goes “Mmmm donut AAAAAAAAAA!” another netizen stated. "Mocking a "USA" chant in Florida? That was never going to go well. Fans pay to hear music, not political commentary. Booing was inevitable." one commenter said. "Who starts chanting USA at a concert? It’s not a USA vs RUSSIA hockey game." another commenter said. "Disappointing coming from a band I enjoy. Business wise not very smart but he has the right to his opinion right or wrong.
