I scored a 14.

[WhiteSteve]

Let’s see….

I’ve crowd surfed, and I can prove it😝

Got on the big screen too, haha. And Rivers Cuomo put his arms up after I did😎😂

Haven’t caught a pick, but I did catch a CD from The Pharcyde back in the day.

No tats, period, so no luck there

I’ve been backstage as part of an opening act, but not as a straight up fan

I aim to be in the front row as often as possible. It’s usually general admission “pit” tickets, so it’s just a matter of getting there early enough. Dozens of times, I’d say.

Spent over $100 more often than not, haha

Never got a setlist before

Mosh pits are half the reason I go. And I try to be the alpha gorilla in every one🦍 Mosh pits are “my happy place”, lmao. Been in some tough pits like Agnostic Front, been in some medium pits like Korn and Rancid, been in some soft ones like Green Day and Weezer, haha. Most recent was Pantera last month. I was just the object the guy crashed face-first into the back of, but I’m pretty sure someone broke their nose or front teeth on my shoulder. Felt bad, but that’s the pit🤷‍♂️

I don’t remember crying at a concert, haha

It wasn’t the concert itself, but the flight back from it, I was AWOL from work and hoping no one called me😂

Jumbotron checked off from the earlier gif, plus fans on the street have told me after the show that they recognized me from the mosh pit on the Jumbotron (I have wild hair, I’m easy to spot)

I travel out of state fairly often, but it’s New England, so it’s not a crazy drive. An hour to Rhode Island, 2 hours to Connecticut, three hours to NYC. The farthest for me was Austin City Limits festival in Texas.

As aforementioned, I went to ACL in Austin, TX, and I’ve been to Boston Calling a few times

Never caught a drumstick

I almost go to all my concerts alone. Not enough friends into music like that, or the specific music I’m in. I’m good on my own, I make friends easily

I’ve gotten to a point where I either am going to be right up front, or I’m just not going, haha. I’m a seat snob. But when I was like 21 I had a friend who loved Phish, and he convinced me to go to a show. Good time, mid band, lmao, but we were on the lawn of an outdoor venue, so those were the nosebleeds

Bought the VIP pass for Boston Calling one year

Common invited fans on stage to dance, and my date just ran to go dance with him, lmfao, and I was like “oh…. alright then”🤣 Ended up talking to the DJ who turned out to be a pre-fame Kanye West, weirdly

Haven’t waited four plus hours before

I’ve definitely been a little hoarse the next day. That’s probably something that happens more after a sporting event

I’ve gotten a few rappers’ autographs after shows and I bought a CD, more underground-ish guys, Wordsworth, Cappdonna. Also the old 70s R&B group The Main Ingredient, featuring Cuba Gooding SENIOR, haha

Never won tickets

Never drove 6+ hours but I flew about six hours for ACL

There was a day in between, but earlier this year, I saw Mayday Parade, and I liked them and their opener, Microwave, who I didn’t know. They played Providence, RI two nights later, the tickets were like $30 and it’s only an hour drive, so I decided to see them both again. Good time, but Mayday Parade is maybe the softest band I’ve ever seen😂👍

[Wiredone]

I lost my voice at an OZZY OSBORNE concert. I was also pretty drunk

[Nikki1989]

Not at Ozzy, but I have done that too.

[Wiredone]

Thanks for the mho

[MemeSupreme]

9 of them and all of them are pretty basic ones lol

what about you

[Nikki1989]

A total of 14 for me.

[petitedollbabee]

Just 1, paid over $100 for a ticket - I think it was $270. I’ve only been to one concert, Foo Fighters when I was 6 months pregnant.

[Nikki1989]

Most concerts are around that price these days. It is becoming increasingly difficult to afford.

[Finchie40]

LOL all of them except crying,, Most of these experiences happened when I was younger in my teens and early 20’s , all I did was go to concerts with friends’ as much as possible. Plus I was good friends’ with a radio DJ that hooked me up a bunch of times with front row tickets and backstage passes , why I got to meet so many bands. I still go to concerts nowadays, but not as often as I use to , mainly because it’s not cheap anymore to go to most concerts these days. Prices are outrageous , so I watch most concerts on your tube instead , unless it’s a band I really enjoy, then I will front the money and go., nowadays there aren’t that many bands I will do that for , I am perfectly fine with the lawn / general admission , unless I can get seats for a reasonable price. Some of these concerts these days want close to a thousand for good tickets , which is insane to me

[Kaneki05]

I have done 4,5,6,8,9,10,12,13,15,17,20,21,23,24 so that's 14 in total.

Another fun fact is I've had a week with 3 gigs. by the way 6 hour drive? Make that a 15... Illinois to Colorado (Rezz at Red Rocks!) straight shot there and back, I should get triple points for that right?

[Nikki1989]

3 gigs in the same week is some effort. I tend to find concert-going exhausting these days.

[AyChingao]

Define concert. I've been to arena and stadium shows, but the large clubs etc. have more often been performing than attending. When it's like that you kinda know a lot of the folks around those venues anyway. No major nationally recognized band affiliations or anything by the way, but you do occasionally meet the recognizable musician. John Fogerty and Eddie Money come to mind right away... score only 3 on the list for major productions though.

[Tarifa]

Just 3. Front row is always best. I drove quite a whole to get to a concert and a whole night to get back. And I've been to concerts alone. I don't ask my friends to share the same musical tastes.

I would never pay an outrageous amount of money to see someone live.

[Massageman]

I've been backstage to get an autograph. But the star was MIA, so I left my LP jacket. The next day, they delivered my autographed record jacket to our hotel room. So I get a weak "2". (We didn't drive 6 hours JUST for the concert- it was on a vacation, so I didn't count that one).

[MannMitAntworten]

Been in the front row twice. Was give free tickets by a performance member a few times. Also , not back stage but was allowed on the tour bus once - Dierks Bentley concert when he did a free concert at 29 Palms United States Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center.

[Sunrising]

I've not done very well!

I've scored zero I've never been to a concert as far as I can remember.

I prefer to go to sporting events.

[BCRanger10]

Not much to go on here...

[Chode9cm]

6 for me, haven't been to a music festival since soundwave 2010. Hopefully going to throff and furry next year

[BLP11520]

My score would be pathetic but I love music

[Techrescueff]

Would have been cool to be at woodstock i think

[Nice222]

I scored 16. I didn’t drive 6 hours but I flew from New York to Europe to see a concert.

[msmissydc]

I got 8 of these.

[Friendlybro79]

Only 7. I'm embarrassed now lol

[Xawyx-2]

Just 3, not much of a result :P

[Ironco]

16 out of 24 for me

[NordicInScandinavia]

[douride2]
