Tips for your first concert

[Eoin]

1. Dont wear a sweatshirt/jumper/hoodie you will overheat.

2. Put money down your sock + dont take a wallet, your money will stay safe.

3. Dont wear a hat, you will lose it or it will get all sweaty.

4. If you smoke put cigs in your sock, they wont get crushed. If you live in scotland, do the same but smoke them in the toilets (smoking ban).

5.Dont be afraid to "get involved", if you fall over while in a pit someone will always help you up.

6. Drink water before you go in, this will stop you dehydrating.

7. Wear converse, they will stay on your feet. If you dont have cons, tie you laces tight.

8. Organise a meet-up-point with your friend(s), before you go in the concert. Unlikely you will stay together.

9. Dont forget your ticket!

10. If your short on cash, and want a band t-shirt, go outside the concert at the end and there are people selling fake Tees.(Ok, its not too good for supporting the band, but its a T-shirt.

Hope it helps.

Feel free to post more hint or tips.

11. When running out of air and need somwhere to breath, duck down, there's lots of oxygen.

12. Try stay away from moshpits, they are rather rough.

13. Dont worry about being not near the front to begin with because as the concert moves on people get more tired and dont care if you pass them.

14. Watch it if you crowd surf, people steal your shoes and punch you as you go past.

15. Always have your hands up and jump around etc. A band member is more likely to chose you if they chose somone from the crowd.

carbon dioxide is heavier than air, it stays low to the ground. Thats why people can die underground. They get tired, have a sit down, get starved for air. (i think)

Nah, it all floats around by everyones faces, it is easier to breathe if you duck down.

Im guessing youve been to the cathouse?

[uh huh her]

One of my mates said be carefull when crowd surfing. She knows someone who got injected with ****** or something.

[RedStratocas]

Dont cheer/scream just because part of the song got quieter-- It makes people like me get angry.

[DMB-Hosting]

Another Tip which is the safest i guess:

Dont go. (Sad)

[Kasabian]

**** that. Mosh pit all the way.

[Billay]

**** that. Mosh pit all the way.

yeah rock on \m/

[mysticember-]

lol at the remeber your ticket point

[Flap]

^^ yeah remembering your ticket would be a good start..

[Craig]

**** that. Mosh pit all the way.

You'd probably get killed in a mosh pit. Not even joking but I bet you would.

[Jin]

Mosh pits are probably the most dangerous at smaller gigs than at concerts and festivals. At Concerts and fests people are so crammed together all they really can do is just push to make space for themselves and thats about it.

Another tip, if the mosh pit is rough dont even bother trying to get to the front, stewards will pull you out if they think your getting crushed.

If you want to crowd surf tap the several people in front of you and tell them of your intentions and they will help you up.

If you fall in a mosh pit then try and get up as soon as possible, I was on a bottom of one and someone jumped on my ribs by accident as I lingered for too long on the floor.

Dont put yous **** in your sock they will get crushed and all sweaty!

Also you forgot to add: GET DRUNK BEFORE YOU GO!

[Eoin]

Getting drunk before you go is rubbish, just get merry, or smoke toot.

Doesnt spoil your evening by being totally hammered.

[partie2]

:o Well obviosly you dont get Hammered so you dont remember anything

[Foks]

Getting drunk would be Dangerous anyway.. :S
Because your body would dehydrate Faster...


Always carry water with you :)

AND don't get pressured into doing something you don't want to (Like Drugs), Thats Important.

[Eoin]

Wear a spiderman costume, you get absolutely flooded by birds :)
(found out last weekend)

[SiteOnline]

hmm i have a tip for the more lazy ppl who dont care :
acctually move and get involved duh!

AHHHHHHH DOUBLE POST SORRY!

Edit by Xelame [Sooper Dooper Forum Mod to the rescue!] - Posts Merged :)

[Crono]

If you're going to see a band, don't wear their T-shirt unless you want to look dumb. An exception is if you bought a shirt at the show/concert and don't want to hold onto it.

[Emicat.]

Sounds fun.

I have a tip; better not wear jewerly. It could get lost or stolen.

[Ryan+Joe]

no just gate crash, then you don't need to forget your tickets or your tickets at all.

[Eoin]

Gate crash past 13 bigass security guards...
On you go mate....

[AdamCookie!]

no just gate crash, then you don't need to forget your tickets or your tickets at all.

Hmmmmmmmmm, Im guessing you've obviousally not seen the size of the security guards at gigs then :rolleyes: - There not afraid to litrally kick you out :eusa_danc

[Joe.]

carbon dioxide is a element in the air so it cant be heavier than "air"

good tips :)
