Machanism/item strapped above audience in a music venue (lemmy.world)

I saw this at a music venue. It was strapped onto railings above the audience facing the stage. Says "kick out", is attached by zip ties, looks like a tube wrapped in a durable plastic coat, and looked like it might have a wire running to it.

Ohh a banner. Right, that makes sense. I thought it might be some sort of pyrotechnics.

So you're thinking "kick out" is just what the banner is saying eg name of a band etc.

When unrolled it might say "KICK OUT THE JAMS!"

If the place doubles as a sports venue there may be rolled up banners all over the placem

There appears to be another line of text under it in your picture, although not enough of it is there to be legible. I'm sure it has other content as well -- more text, logos, a photo, whatever.
