So I'm going to a concert later tonight. Before r9k pounces, I'm going alone. I'm wondering if any other robots enjoy going to concerts alone as well.
What is your usual routine?
Ever had a great/bad experience by yourself?
Ever meet someone?
I've been to several shows by myself and rare talk to anyone else. When I was younger I would try to engage but would make a fool of myself. I'm 29 now and been going to shows by myself since around 19.
r9k pls. am i just a normie?
yes now wan wan

I go to shows all the time. I dont even bother posting on FB if its something I know Ill enjoy. Something like Tiger Army Ill pound some beers beforehand but avoid the moshpit and just enjoy the show.
I don't get why would you engage in conversation at a concert, i've been going alone to several concerts for many years, and I've never met anyone or engaged in conversation more than a couple of words. You are there to see the band, why would you care about talking to people?
True story
> go to see Talib Kweli amd Hi Tek alone
> get in line for bar
> guy in front of me is 6 something tall wearing a duster and leather fedora
> he leaves line to ask his companion what he wants
> comes back to line
> "you can have your spot back"
> line progresses
> he talks to the bartender
> turns around holding three drinks
> hands me one
> its a tesla (redbull and lemonade)
> "honesty will take you far in life"
> literally tips fedora
> disappears into the dark
Thank you indy, I wont forget this lesson
Had a gay experience at a show once:
>band plays really heavy rock song I love
>middle of song has particularly intense vocals
>decide to yell along with him
>he leans over the crowd and we look up at him
>"this is cool, we're both into the son--"
>he gets really close to my face as we're both screaming mouths wide open
>our lips touch
>i recoil, completely bewildered, a few others chuckle
I don't remember anything else from that show. Was it rape?

> What is your usual routine?
My usual routine is as follows:
> Show up
> enter venue
> check out the merch stand if I haven't already bought a superior bootleg T-shirt in the parking lot
> go to my seat
> have fun
When I leave, I'll buy a bootleg shirt if the design and price are right. If not, I'll just go home and get something to eat on the way.
> Ever had a great/bad experience by yourself?
I saw Black Sabbath in February and had a phenomenal time. I might see them again in September at the Hollywood Bowl.
I saw Iggy Pop in April and it was an amazing show even though it was an outdoor venue. Motherfucker's still got it.
> Ever meet someone?
Those two times mentioned above, I engaged in sporadic small talk with the person sitting next to me. Other than that, I never met anyone. I did see my co-worker at the Black Sabbath concert so that was cool.

I would have thrown it in his fucking face and then fucked his companion.
