Would You go to a concert by yourself?

[Viva Las Espuelas]

i've done it. it's great. you don't have to worry about anyone.

So Arcade Fire is playing 2 free shows here in Cleveland. I need to make a decision in the next 25 minutes to whether or not I will attend my first concert by myself because none of my friends can or want to go. What would you do. I really like Arcade Fire, but I also don't want to be that tool at a concert by himself

Take that guy from your job dude.....

Are you going to the concert to hang out with friends or watch the band play? Last I checked you don't need a buddy to hear music.

If you're doing a bench press then invite a buddy. If you're listening to music, who cares?

Mono just says that because he has no friends.

holy this guy is obsessed with me. i'm guessing his insecurities over the internet pour over into his personal life, hence the thought that just because you have no problem doing something by yourself, it means you have no friends. Do you also need a buddy around to help you jack off, ATRAIN?

Yeah internet insecurities spill over to real life hahaha, sure buddy. I never said I had a problem doing anything on my own if you read my post earlier you would know that. Its just funny to see you cry all over this board so I saw an opportunity and I took it, deal with it.

You must have no friends.

I went to the Warped Tour in 2000 by myself. I had about 15 joints with me so that helped. It wasn't bad. I knew a lot of people at the show so I just spent most of my time roaming around and hanging with different people.

Yes I could see where having 15 joints on you would make finding friends pretty easy!

lol, funny you say that. I was listening to Kings of Leon at my desk the other day and he walked by and was like "man thats some good music, I could get into that kind of music, why don't you burn me a cd"....so basically he ruined KOL for me, I couldn't do that with any other band right now, just not ready

Who played in 2000?

[tlongII]

Of course. No one would go with me.

I used to run into that problem a lot because my friends didnt like the music I did. Either way concert alone can be cool because if the bands suck you can leave without having to wait around for your friend or you can avoid leaving early because your friend wants to go.

[CuckingFunt]

I missed two $10 concerts several years ago because I couldn't find anyone who wanted to go with me (one show was Southern Culture on the Skids, who no one had heard of, and the other was Cake when no one had time), and I was so pissed at myself that I swore I'd never let that stop me from seeing a show again.

Well I went by myself and it was awesome. I met some cool people who also went alone. It was pretty funny to hear a Canadian band hold free rally concerts for Obama, but oh well I got to hear the songs I came for. It was a good decision to go and I guess it's not really my first concert alone because I spent all of day 3 at Lollapalooza alone so I could be up front for Pearl Jam. I ended up meeting some really nice people from New York I still keep in touch with. I actually might start doing this more on weekdays.



it was at the place called the Beachland which is right in the very worst end of Cleveland (Bone Thugs are from around there). I have to admit, I was pretty scared parking the car and walking over there

Cool like this does not happen in San Antonio. It's really unfortunate.

Bingo! That or in the case of lil Wayne concerts riots and shootings start.

yeah I guess it's a benefit for being the deciding state in 2004.

haha Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

see Texas just couldn't pull it off because we in the other 49 states know you will be colored red. However, here in Ohio, people traditionally considered us red but that was the old Ohio. New Ohio knows that if they wait till the last minute to count their votes (like say 11:20ish) not only will we lead the news, but we will get free concerts 4 years down the road. We are the state that starves attention.

Well, you win.
