07.08.10 | It kinda bugs me that most bands always obviously save songs for an encore. I think they should just play they show as if they wont be coming back out. Then if people are really losing their shit, then come back out and play another song. Maybe one not everyone knows. |

Personally, I hate it when the band doesn't interact with the audience. They just stand there and play their instruments. |
MaskAtTheMasquerade
07.08.10 | i agree with the reasons in this list.
to add a few: when a band isn't very loud, and when a band doesn't say one word on stage to the crowd (Black Dice). also when a large portion of the crowd has flatulence |

07.09.10 | What pisses me off about some shows is the bands that think they must turn every fucking instrument up to 50000db. Ok, we can hear you, we get it. It get's to a point where it's just painful. Can't even go to concerts without my hi-fi earplugs. |

07.09.10 | "Personally, I hate it when the band doesn't interact with the audience. They just stand there and play their instruments."...with the exception of shoegaze of course.
I also hate when people have their hands in the air, dancing and screaming. When you are supposed to stand still and quietly looking at your feet. |

07.09.10 | Yeah, true.
Lol, I can imagine someone doing that in the middle of a slow mellow song (I.E "No Surprises" or something along those lines) and totally killing the mood. |
Satellite
07.09.10 | I think he meant trying to replicate screaming vox. |

07.09.10 | I hate to sound like a pussy, but I hate shows that allow smoking (not very many do these days, but js). |
Eclectic
07.09.10 | Yeah, I know, my comment was directed at couldwinarabbit |
Satellite
07.09.10 | Oh haha I suck. |
Eclectic
07.09.10 | I agree, smoking kills the atmosphere so bad. It might seem like a nice idea to have a haze filled room, but the smell is so godawful. |
couldwinarabbit
07.09.10 | depends what kind of smoke. |
Eclectic
07.09.10 | Dude, calm down. Smoking is one of the stupidest things you can do, it serves no other purpose then to harm people.
I'm glad its being banned. |

07.09.10 | @ Eclectic it does make you look cool. |
Satellite
07.09.10 | "because of people whining that you can't even smoke in a bar in Michigan"
I don't smoke, but I think it's shit that people can't smoke in bars in this state. It's fucked. Concerts are another story, though. |
Eclectic
07.09.10 | It doesn't make you look cool, it makes you look like an idiot because everyone knows you're going to die a slow, agonizing death. |

how you gonna come back from that? |

^^^ This. What's the point of having an Encore if its part of your set, ESPECIALLY if consists of some of your biggest songs (like when Muse encored with "Stockholm Syndrome" and "Knights of Cydonia")? That's like putting a "hidden song" after five minutes of silence on the last track of a c.d.: you know it's there, there's no surprise, you just have to needlessly wait for it. Ridiculous.
Also...I absolutely can't stand crowd surfers. I have to yell, "HEADS UP!" every three damn minutes so that people have adequate time to turn around a punch the guy in the balls. I guess that's punishment for making it to a show early enough to be at the very front. |

07.09.10 | Crowdsurfers suck, especially when you're tall. |

07.09.10 | sry masochist. definately am a crowd surfer so you can go fuck yourself lol
biggest pet peeve are the bitches who keep complainin to 'PLAY (insert song title)'!!!!!!!!!!!!!
so fuckin annoyin |

07.09.10 | My first show was Green Day/blink-182/Jimmy Eat World. |

Wow, shut the fuck up. |
Masochist
07.09.10 | I'm 6' 1", which means I get fresh air every now and then while in the middle of the crowd, but I'm also the target of every crowd surfer at the show, no matter which side of the crowd I'm in. Nothing worse at a show than having the band play your favorite song, and then getting busted in the head while enjoying it...especially three times by the same damn person. |
Satellite
07.09.10 | Yeah, I'm 6-1 too. Most kids at punk shows are midgets. |
cvlts
07.09.10 | i usually jus target some scene chick and cannonball my ass into that bitch.
i think ive removed about 15 people from the show because of that. and have started about just as many fights because of it. |
Eclectic
07.09.10 | Being a midget is shit, you have to be careful where you mosh and half the time you can't see the band because of the tall mo-fos in front of you. |
cvlts
07.09.10 | although, i admit that i only go to metal and hardcorepunk shows so its expected for that shit to happen |
CaelTaylor
07.09.10 | I hate going to small venues looking to enjoy some local bands, and all it consists of is redneck tard-asses disguised in the latest trendy get-ups from Hot Topic doing some stomping crab ritual to hide the fact that they have grapes and twigs for pantfill. Especially when they hit a chick. C'mon. |
Trundle
07.09.10 | lol Eclectic your views on smoking are pretty fucking dumb |
Eclectic
07.09.10 | Show me the flaw in this logic: You shouldn't do something that only hurts you and everyone around you.
Seriously, I want to know where I went wrong. |
Trundle
07.09.10 | so, no one should drink alcohol either?
Do you really think that the occasional smoke has any real long term affects? |
Eclectic
07.09.10 | Alcohol is an entirely different story, alcohol can be enjoyed in moderation. The part of the body it affects the most (the liver) happens to be the only organ in your body that can regrow itself if the damage is kept to a minimum.
Yes, it does actually, you do realise that they put Acetone in there, don't you?
Acetone: Fragrant volatile liquid ketone, used as a solvent, for example, nail polish remover. |

love this show. totally shits on the second hand smoke misconception, of course smoking isn't healthy and is very well harmful, it is no where near as bad as it's made out to be. |
Eclectic
07.09.10 | Oh I don't know, maybe because smoking doubles the risk of getting cancer. So let's see, if everyone (assuming that at least 90% of the population eat the aforementioned packaged foods) had a greater then double chance of getting cancer, don't you think there'd be a lot of people with cancer?
Funnily enough, I only know half-a-dozen people who have had cancer, and every single one of them smoked.
Bonfires are out in the open, also I'm pretty sure you don't burn acetone in a bonfire. |

07.09.10 | it sucks when the lights go off for a second. they should go off longer so i can grab girls tits without them knowing who did it |
Ire
07.09.10 | i hate when you go to a show and it sucks
example: children of bodom, btbam and black dahlia murder |
Trundle
07.09.10 | seriously eclectic watch the first half of the video i linked, it's a great show and you might realize where somguest is coming from. We NEED smoking, population is out of control, and seriously, smoking seriously relaxes you and yes it may shorten your life span, but why not enjoy life in your prime and not when you're 70? |
cvlts
07.09.10 | no smoking allowed in seattle shows.
that would be so fucking gay if they did though. |
cvlts
07.09.10 | only got one life ;-] |
Eclectic
07.09.10 | So after watching that video I respect that second-hand smoke is not an issue.
However: That does not excuse the fact that smoking DOES harm people and gives them nothing back. Why would you want to do it in the first place?
Give me one good reason why I should start smoking. |
Eclectic
07.09.10 | Sorry, out of time with my comments.
Smoking relaxes you? The only reason it relaxes you is because your mind goes crazy when it doesn't have it. If you didn't start smoking it wouldn't relax you. |
Eclectic
07.09.10 | Bah, fucked up the last sentence. Meant to say that if you didn't start smoking you wouldn't need to relax as much. |
Eclectic
07.09.10 | As for the population thing: Fuck off, why don't we just stop sending murderers to jail then? By your logic they're doing the country a service.
living life to its full: Wouldn't your life be better spent healthy? as I explained cigarettes do nothing for you. |
Trundle
07.09.10 | ^lol you are seriously misinformed, I have smoked probably 4-6 cigarettes in my life. and have enjoyed in sharing about 4 cuban cigars with my friends. They relax you like nothing I've known before. I am by no means addicted to smoking tobacco, in fact I don't go looking for tobacco, as I have been smoking weed for 3 years now, about once every two - three weeks and realize what Im doing is harmful. But put it into perspective dude, you can't get addicted to smoking cigarettes from your first smoke, don't preach about something you don't fully understand. |

07.09.10 | I saw this one post-rock band who ended with Mario Bros. theme song (played on violin, but still, come on now.)

Bitchfork
07.09.10 | I just don't find a point to smoking, to be honest.
Getting high. Purposeful.
Drinking. Purposeful.
Smoking. Risks definitely outweigh the benefits. There are much better ways to relax than smoking cigarettes. |
Trundle
07.09.10 | ^ o totally, but people deal with stress in different ways, and smoking can help, that being said i don't promote it, but i'm not gonna knock people for smoking. |
Eclectic
07.09.10 | I have seen my friends get addicted to cigarettes after just one, don't tell me you can't get addicted after one smoke because I've seen it happen. You sir just happen to be a lucky exception I guess. |
Bitchfork
07.09.10 | I'm fine with people smoking, mostly because I genuinely enjoy the smell of secondhand, but I by no means advocate it, esp. now that all my friends are menth-addicts.
|
Trundle
07.09.10 | dude, it's all about your personality, if you can keep your head about you, you can dabble into things like smoking but still keep your life in check. That being said i come from an addictive family apparently, so i've been told, but I guess i've just known how to deal with things. Though i must admit, never try MDMA, i did it once without really knowing what it was, and i was seriously depressed for 3 days, it really gave me insight into why people become drug addicts |
quicksilver050
07.09.10 | You know what really grinds my gears? Hearing assholes yell for stupid fucking song requests right in my damn ear. For example: No, current-Underoath will not play "When the Sun Sleeps". Please stop yelling it every fucking second between songs. |
Dryden
07.09.10 | girls who dont flash 24/7 suck |
Eclectic
07.09.10 | See, that's where drugs catch people out, so many of us think we're strong enough to handle them, but the only way to truly know is to try them. After that 50% will find out they're wrong and they can't handle them, the other 50% will tell whoevers left that it's OK, and the cycle will keep going.
And I admit there are some truly disgusting drugs out there.
I can't believe people are still using Ice, that shits worse then you can believe. |

07.09.10 | Ross, are you that guy from AP.net, from IL? If so I'm an Illinoisan, too. If not, dismiss this.

07.09.10 | haha yeah, don't know how people can even compare the two, |
Captain North
07.09.10 | Crowdsurfers are okay, ONLY if they're doing it because they need out. When the same guy comes past three times it pisses me off. Especially since I'm short and they just get dropped onto me. |
Captain North
07.09.10 | To throw my (small) weight in the smoking debate - yeah sure, its fine if you smoke. But I dont smoke and I hate the smell of it. It makes it hard for me to breathe (duh). But I like going out drinking and I like going to shows. I don't see why I have to put up with someone lighting up beside me when they can just fucking go outside if they're that desperate. It's their own fault their addicted.
And having someone light up in the pit is the worst, I don't want to get fucking burnt. |
