4 Great Concert Tips

This past weekend I attended two concerts. Something Corporate on Friday night and Green Day on Saturday night. My ears are still ringing from the noise, but it was well worth it. I have learned a lot of things by going to concerts over the years and I believe these tips below will help you in the future.

1) Viewing: If you are going to a venue with no seats, just know that you will have to push your way through the crowd to get to the area you want. Make sure you get there and stay there.

2) Pre-Game: If at all possible, drink in the parking lot. One beer at a venue will cost you about $10, when a 6 pack will cost you about the same. You do the math.

3) Merchandise: Skip it, unless it something you really want. $35 for a Green Day shirt! I think I’ll pass. I know I was at the show,you don’t have to show off that you were at the show. If you want to show off, just show your ticket stub.

4) Security: Some security guards are real hard-asses but some of them are really cool. If you ask nicely, you might be able to get closer to the band than other people. During the Something Corporate show, we were actually on the railing were they were hanging out. It was pretty cool and the guard didn’t care much. Sometimes just ask.
