How do you feel about seeing concerts live?

Post Reply New Topic

Not really enjoying it, no. Too loud and too many people. I like performing in concerts though, especially solo. Been over a decade since last time, but it's quite a nice rush to pour your energy into the flow of sounds you're generating.

As long as there's a circle pit I'm game.

I'm not big on live performances from genres of music that don't consider that appropriate.

I tried it once, with my very favorite band (Tool). I had to leave early due to sensory issues (noise, crowd, the feel of the bass (which was so loud I could barely hear the rest of the music), and someone near us had lit up), and concluded that I'm much happier just listening to music at home. But at the same time, I feel like I somehow missed out and would like to try again, even though the results would probably be the same.

I like seeing live music, but it has to be a band I really love and I have to go alone so if I do get overwhelmed by the crowd or volume, I don't have to take any one else into consideration as far as my behavior goes.

I'm not into going to concerts & I don't think I ever really been to an official one. I have a low vision disorder & am extremely nearsighted even with glasses so I'm not really into the visual aspect of concerts. I would much rather listen to the artists on my computer than hear em live. The sound quality is a lot better on my comp if I a good CD rip or if the songs are HQ on youtube. I would be open to going to a con thou I never been to one. I like the idea of being able to meet the artists & talking to em & hanging out with other fellow dorks

Is painful. Vibraty eardrums. Too much noise. Too much people. I avoid!
Would love to hear Cyndi Lauper sing but somewhere quiet.
I avoid any pop concert or things like that. Once went to one to please a girl when she asked me. Was a painful experience due to the noise. Ear drums nearly turned insideout!

Mostly when hub plays, is that concert?
i didn't like the hard rock sort of thing, i hadn't planned to go, but was planned for, very unpleasant, the light, the crowd; the spot, not to mention the teksts
i don't go usually, liked it better when the repetitions were at our house with the old band(s)
last time at an other live concert, lee perry & the white belly rats, funny performance but troublesome situation,
how things have evolved, you're in cages of a sort and garded by foreigners who don't understand the public

Live concert is a thing to remember for years... But where is a perfect location... It's controversial question.

I'm generally pretty tolerant of seeing concerts live, but it does depend on how loud the concert is and who and/or what is being played. If it were Keith Green in concert though (RIP, I wasn't even born when he passed away) I probably wouldn't care how loud it would be!
