Get yourself some good insoles and hearing protection.
But you have to give respect to those old-timey crocs.

The headliner refers to the main entertainer of the the show that comes on stage after the opening/warm-up acts finish performing. You have to get through the opening acts before you see the one you actually came for.
F that. You stand around, drink, socialize and then you go in the pit for the headliner.
This guy moshes.
Fat and unfit and still in the pit. And I’ll never change.
I saw a very large man wearing a pickle costume at the last mosh I went to, Suicide Silence and I AM. He called himself Pickle Nick.
Funniest fucking thing I’ve ever seen
Bro what the hell at the Suicide Silence show I was at there was a dude dressed as a banana. He moshed the whole fuckin show too.
All the fruits and veggies come out for the hardcore and extreme metal acts
Hey, who you calling fat?!
[looks down at belly]
Fair enough.

I also love audience participation and I find people sitting are 10 times less likely to participate. I haven’t found it common but being able to buy a seat but still stand and mosh etc is ideal.
Idk I just recently saw Nick Cave and Jason Isbell both at Massey Hall and were seated for both shows and it was a very energetic audience.
I’ve never been a fan of standing for concerts. But I especially hate fuckers who buy the seats in front of me then stand up most of the concert. IF YOU WANTED TO STAND THERE WERE DEDICATED PLACES THAT WOULDN’T OBSTRUCT MY VIEW.
I can only assume standing tickets were sold out

Wear good shoes!
Been putting in the exercise as I see Chelsea Grin and Suicide Silence tonight. My back and neck are not ready.
I just saw them in Fort Wayne a couple weeks ago! Fantastic concert. Have fun and be safe
Show was super good! Neck is sore though lol.
Once I grew my hair out I couldn’t resist the urge to headbang like a maniac at metal shows. Can’t beat seeing Cannibal Corpse and Mayhem a couple months back… That was insane. Moshing and banging, probably the best concert I’ve ever seen
I have back issues - if I stand too long, my back really starts hurting. One of my favorite bands was playing in a standing room only place a few months ago, and I didn’t go because of it.
It’s not something that bothers me on a day-to-day basis, because I’m never really standing that long in normal situations. But for a few hours, on a concrete floor? That’s not going to go well.
Same. I LOVE live music but I’m a cripple the next day.
Unhealthy*
This is the only true answer. Work on your fitness, people.
I disagree. I would say I’m healthy. I walk almost everywhere and I inline skate a lot, often do 20k in a single session. But i cannot stand still for the life of me. It hurts.
The secret is dancing
It do be like that. I’ve just had to learn my limits when it comes to pits. That and I can’t afford to break anything.
I’ve been uncomfortable standing for more than a minute, through my whole life.
Do I have a disease
No it’s human to want to sit down.
It’s more of a severe discomfort. I don’t know how to describe it… I’ve felt guilty of people who can just sit.
The nod?
