Location: Dublin | Like everyone here, I love live music and good HM gigs in particular. Over the past year I have been lucky to see a lot of really good top name bands but something has been starting to bother me and it came home to roost last night at a Duff McKagan gig.
The big question is - Am I getting old or is the quotient of tossers at gigs getting larger? I love to rock out, I jump around, I headbang, I play air guitar, I even mosh a little but I get really annoyed when someone tries to push in front of me or spills their drink on me. Is this just the onset of old age (I am 40) and I should chill-out or are there more arseholes around these days. I remember a much cooler, friendlier vibe at gigs years ago - am I just being sentimental here?
What do you think? I realise different countries will have different experiences but I would still love to know.
Now where did I leave my pipe and slippers? |
