Crushed metal and broken glass was left behind Monday morning as dazed car
owners discovered the destruction left by thousands of Kanye West fans
outside Manhattan’s Webster Hall.

“I feel sick right now,” said Michael Gomez, as he surveyed the cracked
windshield and dented roof on his Chrysler Pacifica.

Throngs of Yeezy followers flocked to the music venue early Monday morning
after he promised a surprise concert hours after his Governor’s Ball set
was rained out.

But the Webster Hall show was cancelled because of crowds.

Police said about 4,000 people gathered outside the hall on East 11th St.
The concert hall can only accommodate 1,500 people.

Cops said there was one arrest — a 26-year-old woman for disorderly
conduct.

Mayor de Blasio responded to the fracas on Monday via Twitter to West and
his reality star wife Kim Kardashian West

“Great block parties are planned,” de Blasio tweeted. "@Chirlane & I can
throw one w/ you to benefit NYC kids.

Early Monday morning, Kardashian West posted a video of her husband on
Snapchat saying on the phone, “Call the mayor and shut down the block
about four streets and put screens up so they could have a party outside,
I heard it was sold out already.”

Shirley Green, who lives around the corner from Webster Hall, was furious
to find her Mazda with its windshield cracked.

She said West should be held accountable for the damage to the vehicles.

“I looked to see if someone had fallen or dropped from the roof,” said
Green, who had her dog Rocky with her. “"Rocky doesn't mind hip hop, but
he really doesn't like Kanye West.”

Dexter Schiefele, the superintendent of a building next to Webster Hall,
swept up the bottles, glass and other trash left by the frustrated fans
and dumped it on the steps of the music venue.

“Just cleaning up the mess,” said his wife, Jessica. “Thank you, Kanye.”

The couple watched the mayhem from their apartment and then the building’s
roof, calling 911.

Friends Monica Santiago, Albert Baliwas and Jasmine Tan tried to get into
the failed surprise show. They said the line outside Webster Hall was
orderly around 1 a.m. but the situation deteriorated as more people
arrived

“No one was jumping on cars or stamping, they just wanted a higher
ground,” said Baliwas, 23, who lives in Brooklyn.

“It was a chaotic mess,” added Tan, 22. “It was intense but it was fun.”

The three also said police officers at the scene stayed on the edges of
the crowd.

Fans saw West pop out of the sun roof of his car by 3rd Ave. around 2 a.m.
Monday but the crowd prevented him from getting out.

Kanye was “really close” to performing before the cancellation, a Webster
Hall security guard told the Daily News.

Concertgoers already inside the bustling venue saw employees setting up
Kanye merchandise.

Kardashian West tweeted a photo of the crowds on Monday morning with a
message:

“Last night was crazy! Kanye wished he could have performed last night!!!”

She thanked the people who came out for the show and promised he will make
it up to them.

“He really tried so hard but it was ultimately out of his control!” she
tweeted. “He has the best fans in the whole world!”

At least seven cars showed obvious damage with crushed roofs and smashed
windshields.

“Oh my god, that is so bad!,” said Marie Christiansen, 31 who lives across
the street from Webster Hall. “Were people standing on the cars?”

She said several nights a week the streets outside the theater are full of
people.

“I saw pictures of last night,” Christiansen said. “It has never been
anything as close to that.”

Jim Bessent, a retired book editor who lives around the block from Webster
Hall, said it appeared people had been standing on the cover of his Red
Chevy Silvarado pick-up truck. It could cost up to $800 to replace.

“You park across from Webster hall, you know what goes on,” he said. “This
is an easy target, I wonder how I lasted so long.”

The only redeeming quality of hip hop / rap "artists" is that they
regularly kill each other.
