I'm serious. I've been to some youth gig before which had a few bands, all local, and I've seen a few people perform, but not a proper concert, let alone a festival. So any tips you guys have would be appreciated.



Funeral bore me...and I've never heard of Valencia before.

I know this comment is irrelevant, but I finally saw a Trial Kennedy video the other day (Sunday Warning) & the lead singer looked nothing like I had imagined he would.
lol, werent expecting a short, white man? And also, there is nothing wrong with laziness.

Just have fun Tom. And if you'd prefer to listen to the music above anything else, probably stay away from the moshes as you will be more concerned for your (& others) safety.

I'm unsure what I was expecting Billy. He looked a little older than I thought and... I dunno. Silly thing to say I guess.

Come on Croc... Lift your game. Birds of Tokyo's new album just went gold!

If you don't leave sweaty, chafed, burnt and pissed off at everything then you weren't at the right show

1. Lots of water

2. Sunscreen/protection

3. Avoid people without shirts

4. Keep your goddamn shirt on

5. Go hard in the pit or get out

6. Everything I learned about moshing I learned at metal and hardcore shows. Be prepared.

7. Pace yourself.

8. ENJOY that shit, man.

9. Nine Inch Nails

10. Minus the Bear

Fuck the music, Im there for the moshing. I've been in a moshpit once (at that youth concert) and it was one of the more enjoyable nights I've had...and it wasn't one of the jumping ones, it was a proper circle pit.



My main concern is that I'm gonna lose whatever I take.



And thanks guys. Cheyeah, I'm yet to even listen to Minus The Bear normally. I was tempted to check them out because everyone here loves them, but I'm with a mate and we're compromising to get the best results for both of us - so we're going to Innerpartysystem in that slot for him.

Huzzah, for never wearing them! I have the worst sock tan you'll find on a guy who doesn't have a working tan.

That's actually a great checklist there DavID. And a nice addition from Billy too. Man, thongs or sandles would be great, but...

LOL re: sock tan.

Oh & 12. Don't do what that chick did at the Perth Big Day Out!

Right now, hundreds of American SputnikMusic users are going "What's up with these Aussies & their liking for wearing G-Strings?" :-)

Haha i was thinking the same thing, hence me saying thongs/flip flops in my first mention of them. Poms will be thinking the same also, had a few awkward moments when i was there due to this very thing.

So for all you non Aussie kids thinking wtf.

Thongs = Flip Flops
