Do you go to concerts alone ? I have in the past and I am tonight but when I tell people I am going to a concert they allways ask me who am I going with and when I say just myself they seem to have the reaction they would never go alone.

But lately there have been a few concerts I really wanted to go to but missed because I couldn't find anyone else who wanted to go and was also available that night. I see other people at concerts who are obviously on their own, so I've been thinking why not try it.
I guess you could always buy two tickets and pretend your "friend" backed out at the last minute.

Lately I've been going with my 12 yr old son. I've got 4th row for Masters of Metal this saturday, he'll be blown away.

At the time I also lived across the road from the venue. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Sep 2004 Location: Kingston, NY/Middletown, CT | | | I recently went to a bluegrass festival alone, knowing my friend was going but assuming I wouldn't meet up with him. Of course I miraculously ran into one other kid from school and hung out with him. The time I intended to go alone, I wasn't alone.
I did see Brian Haas and Reed Mathis from JFJO with the Benevento/Russo Duo in a bar alone once. That was fun. |

She talked too much, anyway.
