Going to a concert alone for the first time in a few days.

What do? I'm thinking about getting really drunk.

>>72613142
Me?

I've never been to a concert or rave and I plan on never going to either—waste of time.

Hum

I've never been to a concert with another person. Always go alone. That having been said, I usually just stand there and don't talk to anybody because I'm socially retarded. Except one Built to Spill concert where I met a group of really cool people who befriended me.

>>72616542
If I'm drunk I won't feel as lonely and awkward?

>>72616663
Doesn't work that way in my experience. I just feel relaxed and less awkward about being alone. But maybe it will work for you.

Not that anon but I can't talk to my favourite artists (or even just other people in the crowd) without dropping spaghetti.

I wish I had a confident friend to do these things with me.

>>72612912
I go to concerts alone - who gives a shit. It's not like I'm talking to whoever I go with once the music starts, and besides it's not hard to strike up a conversation with random drunk people.

>>72614749
>Missing a chance to trigger Gira by taking his picture a load of times during the gig
Damn, anon

>>72616663
If you're going to a good gig you're not going to have the time to feel awkward and alone. I'd still have a few drinks first though.

>>72616677
That's because they go to their own concerts without you.

>>72616677

Yeah. The concert was Carpenter Brut and Perturbator, with some black metal and experimental electronic on a smaller stage.

>>72616891
Is it just me or does anyone else feel they have nothing to say when they see their favorite artists? Like I could go over and say something nice like I'm a fan and I enjoy their music and they've helped me a lot but all I can think about is how much they've probably already heard that and the fact that they really don't care.

pfft, you went because you enjoy that music and it meant something to you and thats all that matters bud.

>>72612912
I just pretend I'm press if anyone asks

I went to see Alvvays alone

It was still pretty great. Got a setlist and a spot at the front and talked to Molly for like 10 seconds

but I got there like 2 hours early cause poor planning so it was awkward sitting there

>>72615850
My pleb friend who never even heard about Boris went with me. He eventually helped me get a signed 3LP copy of Pink

What the fuck do you during the intermission when you're alone? I'm not a drinker so going to the bar to buy beer is out of the question. I don't want to keep hiding out in the bathroom until the next song/band starts.

>tfw most girls in the concerts I attended to are my dreamgirls
I always attend concerts alone since my "friends" are normie plebs as fuck. I don't mind going alone but I alway wonder how do people make friends with people that have similar taste in music? And the girl problem is another different story, sometimes I see some who seems to be alone but fuck me my social anxiety is just playing all sort of embarassing Mark Corrigan moment that are bound to happen if I started talking with them.

Fucking hell m8 that's incredibly haram as fuck.

I don't like going to concerts because it just makes me want to play music instead of listen... but there's really no where else to meet music-minded people

>>72617467
>>72617499
These, I go to a lot of shows and I rarely see a girl who is alone. The exception is after the doors first open and everyone files in, I'll see a few girls by themselves, but then a couple minutes later their boyfriends or friends come back from the bathroom/bar/merch table. Other times I'll see a girl who's alone or with another friend but I can tell by the way she's dressed or carries herself she's totally not my type.

The other problem is I live an hour from the city, so on the occasions I do see someone who looks cool, I'm like what's the point? They'll be nice and we'll get along and then it'll just be disappointing because they'll live far away from me so a friendship/relationship would never work out.

>>72614749
Their recent tour was amazing. I went by myself, got there early and got to the front. I was zoning out doing this weird tribal movement in the front that Gira started to copy.

>>72618949
im NYC, which makes it even more infuriating when people say

>YOURE IN NYC BUT NO FRIENDS???

its easier to make friends in a small town cause theres not as many people, so your friendships are more important/meaningful

>>72619319
It's not going to concerts alone that's the issue for me, it's going alone and seeing all the guys with their girlfriends, and not having one myself even though I want one really badly.

>>72619345
there are many people alone and content, so this should tell you the problem isn't inherently troubling and that your method of dealing with it is what adds negativity.
if you start thinking about the future just stop and focus on how your body feels and what you hear, anxiety is based on forethought and contentment is easily attainable through thinking-in-the-moment.
if you find yourself resisting this you are probably the type to feel odd satisfaction in loneliness and sadness,, i cannot help you with this
it is not easy to change your way of thinking especially when advice comes from over the internet with no personal connection but you should listen.

>>72619469
This is good advice but not everything is black and white. When I go to concerts alone I enjoy myself very much, and have fond memories of all the concerts I've been to even though I've gone to 95% of them by myself.

I was alone and content for the first 23+ years of my life, and then for a few months after my breakup with my ex, but now I want a girlfriend again, this is perfectly normal. I also think going to a concert alone and, while looking around in the crowd between acts or after the doors open, seeing all the guys with girlfriends and wishing that was you and it reminding you you don't have a girlfriend, is perfectly normal too.

>>72619542
