Etiquette

Certain concerts should not take place in venues with seating. That being said, those who prefer to be seated should not come to said concerts. Why? Because they act like douchebags.

Tuesday night, I saw TV on the Radio (incredible) at a larger venue in Toronto (Docks). TVOTR fans are extremely diverse (in age and concert-going experience) which makes for an interesting crowd. There are, however, those who are accustomed to a different vibe and do not appreciate being sandwiched between sweaty people. I have no sympathy for those people. It baffles me that people will come to a concert and think that they're untouchable. Tough luck homeslices.

There was one particular 'human being' that snarled at everyone who tried to get past her. What was even funnier is that Snarly was situated close to the bathroom so those poor souls that had to empty the bladder had to feel her wrath.

Turns out there is legit concert etiquette behaviour on the interwebs categorized by genre. In a pretty cute (and comprehensive) list entitled "The (Rock) Concert-Goer's Guide to Etiquette", section VI. Pre-Concert Behaviour promotes the mantra: "push and be pushed". Regular concert goers will adhere to this rule but that doesn't exempt the newbies.

Just thought I'd give you all a heads up. If I ever catch you pouting at those "damn teenagers", you will feel MY wrath....or I'll just yell profanities at you.
