Concert experiences #1
I was at a pretty wild show last night (see below) and it got me thinking, what are everyone's most fun/memorable/craziest moments at concerts or other events?

I went to see Sabaton and Kreator (top grade Power and Death Metal, respectively, so very high energy) last night. My friend and I were two of the very few who didn't get busted for having fakes, so there were varying levels of intoxication all night. First I got pulled into the Kreator mosh pit at the end of their set, then I said fuck it and stayed there for all of Sabaton's (2ish hours), during which we got them to play the YMCA. My scrawny ass then got launched around the pit and kicked in the face by a crowd surfer (I only noticed it bled when I got home) which made me say fuck it yet again, go crowd surfing myself, and end up on my friend's Snapchat. All around 10 out of fucking 10, would do again but I need a few months to recharge.

Back In my younger days, a group of us jumped the fence at a festival In my locality only to find myself caught In barbed wire on the way down. I still have the scar halfway down my arm.

Bon Jovi was one of (If not the) best concerts I've been to.

I have only ever been to one actual concert in my life. Didn't really listen to the band much beforehand, but went to see them in Brixton, London for a friends birthday. Decided by the end of the night I liked their stuff, and got one of the concert t-shirts. Wore the shirt the next week at school, only to be asked by a friend if I supported pedophiles. Needless to say I was confused, but it had just hit the news that the lead singer was a peado. I was stuck at school wearing that shirt all day.

I believe I have told this story before, and I'm almost certain mothered or others managed to guess which band it was xD

I have only been to one but when I was really young. I can't remember the main people we were there for but Olly Murs did a song or two.

More often I go to shows like comedians and TV show tours. I have seen a lot UK shows on tour like Russel Howard, Derren Brown, Mr Browns Boys, Ant & Dec, BGT.

I've only been to one dedicated concert and it was for Buckethead. Besides the expected weed smell permeating everything, someone ran on stage and tried to rip the mask off his face but before he could another guy ran up and smashed beer into the guys face. Overall I think everyone was pretty drunk.

Got me some glow in the dark stars though lmao. Stared at my friend for like a solid ten seconds and handed it to me.

Dude, Buckethead must have been insane live, I can imagine why everyone was fucked up lol.

Sabaton's stage presence is crazy, there wasn't a single song where the whole crowd wasn't going nuts.

Got sprayed with champagne via firehose when I saw Ozzy in Brazil. Also enjoyed seeing Motorhead, Slipknot, and Slayer with @"Skullmeat". Haven't been to any recently, though.

Another time a few friends and I were given VIP tickets, open bar, and party bus access to see Party Favor (EDM artist) perform at a club. Never seen so many girls or drugs done in the open.

Back before Ozzy quit Ozzfest for a bit, I got caught in a mosh pit and got pushed into a tree. OW
People were setting their shirts and money on fire and got sprayed by firehoses just for being nearby. Would do again though!

Another one was Linkin Park. Really bad storm started and I was in the cheaper lawn area. As soon as it started raining, I jumped over the fence (lol) that separates the lawn area from seats and went further up to avoid getting soaked. People were getting kicked out for that, luckily I wasn't caught.

All others aren't too wild, just getting drunk and lost, and getting free seat upgrades for a two day concert.

You must still be somewhat young if you were young when Olly Murs became a thing xD

I've also seen Russel Howard, love those Derren Brown shows (which one did you go to!?), and love Mrs Browns Boys (I'm so jealous, I want to go to one). Was it Ant and Decs Saturday Night Takeaway? I've always wanted to go to one of those too, since I was a kid.

You sound like someone I need to go to a concert with xD
