The only thing you really have to worry about at most concerts are the unhip people that can come around. I mean, I'm definitely not the epitome of "kewl", but I like to think that I'm at least above the suburban couple in their 40's wearing sweaters with a five year old, videotaping a Rammstein concert. And the fat goths. Watch out for the fat goths.

I hate you (j/k). The Incubus concert here sold out in 2 days, about a week before I even heard about it. Anyway, I've seen Incubus before and they put on a great show, so have fun.

Hm, if it's an outdoor show I'd most fear those people selling overpriced stereotypical "alternative" crap in the booths. :P

Heh. Have fun. :)

My advice: think HARD before getting a bunch of souveniers. Souveniers are EVIL at concerts. Think $50 for a shirt, $30 for a CD, etc.

Have a blast!!

Oh, and Kthulu, about that suburban couple you mentioned, personally I think it's great they are letting their five year old listen to Rammstein.

yeah, i remember my first concert...the HFStival at ravens stadium here in Bmore. it kicked ASS. jimmy's chickin shack, offspring, chili peppers, live, moby, the bosstones. went w/ my dad. he used to go to all the hfstivals. he stopped cuz he got married...but we went to this one. it was the last good one, spring 99. by the fall show, limp bizkit and linkin park and that crap had shown up on hfs (a radio station) and it started sucking. the station used to be an alternative station, like beck, and the ramones (its nearly 30 years old) but then they started being a rock top 20, playing crap, and what kills me is that theyre still billing themselves as alternative. they play friggin disturbed...and soad. god, those are 2 of the worst bands to come out in the last few years, especially disturbed. i hate them and sliplnot equally. anyway, ive also been to a weird al concert (IT KICKED MORE ASS THAN THE HFSTIVAL), a better than ezra concert, everclear (got a shirt, disco still sucks), and crosby stills n nash. all of em were great, specially weird al...

Let's see, the two concerts I've been to:

The first was a Crossbreed, Godhead, and Rammstein triple header. That fucking kicked ass.

The second (and most recent) was a Kidney Thieves, 16 Volt, and KMFDM triple. It was so-so. Took too long to get to KMFDM, and they mostly played stuff off their new album. It wasn't too bad, but they could've played more of their old stuff :cry: . Oh well, we got "Godlike" out of it, which raised the roof.

I agree with Chaos Angel. Go into it for the music and leave your money in the car. Well, bring enough to get something to drink. Actually, that'll probably cost as much as a used Incubus CD.

I've never been to a really huge concert like that, but have fun and just try to take it all in. Make it something to remember.

Don't worry about the inflated prices buy what you can because you never feel that its been a waste. After the concert you think about the money but then you realise that you saw a cool band and the merchandise you got was part of that experience. Im not rich but Ive spent over a grand on tool concerts and accompaning merchandise and Ive never looked back it all means something different to me regardless of how shitty and inane it really is.
