i scowl at the fucking scenesters who prefer to yak with their buddies instead of paying attention to the music-- then i come up to their faces and say SHUT THE FUCK UP-- occasionally i pelt them with beer bottles
fuck you, you loudmouth fuck. go to the bar if you're so desperate for flapping your piehole, you twat. |

I hate those kids too. They are usually texting too, which makes no sense. ENJOY THE MUSIC, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!
They are just going so they can say they were there when they go to school the next day.

I generally get trashed and shout and throw things.

People chat at gigs. It's fine. It's only annoying if it's a quiet band, and in my recent experience, bands tend to be far too loud for no apparent reason. Merzbow needs to be ear-shreddingly loud. Crap indie band does not. I only say this because I get annoyed at having to wear ear-plugs for a band that on record really shouldn't merit it.
Anyway. I tend to like a dance, or a bit of a standing with the beer at the back.

I observe,listen and do the head-nod thing. If it is a real doozy of a show I'll dance or do something that slightly resembles dancing

i'm either taking pictures or yelling "WHOOOO!"
or planning marriages, depending on who's performing.

I sit or stand still and watch and listen.

i stand very very still. cross my arms. let my man-bangs cover my eyes. and quietly judge everyone at the gig. i bring over my non-interested friend whom i only converse with, and if anyone tries to talk to us, i utter 2 word responses and pretend that they're not giving me the "fucking weirdo" look.
and when the music becomes somewhat dancey, i stand even more still |

I dance if the music is dancey.
I blank if the music is blanky. Edit: I shit if the music is shitty.

Quite often these days, like I don't want to be there. Which I frequently don't.
I don't enjoy the live music experience as much I used to. If I had some Harry Potter-esque power to make people disappear, and I could use it on arseholes in the crowd, I'd definitely be a happier gig-goer. Although I'd probably be quite busy making people vanish. |

if its a gig i've paid good money to be at, i'm pretty close to the front or at a suitable vantage.. Whatever suits the band.
If its local or cheap show, i wander around till i find some free space.. Drink a bit. Dance a bit. Sit a bit. Repeat. I like wandering up to the side to check out gear too.

I go diretly before the stage, usually on the guitarist's side. I let the music determine my motion, i.e. good music is more motion.
Went to see No Age in San Francisco last Thursday. Hipsters out the wazoo, but that didn't stop me from having an amazing time. I got pretty rowdy, but I'm no mosher. Edit: Oh, and oddly enough I tend to respect girls quite a bit at shows. If they appear to be to pretty/scene/hipster-esque type who would get demolished if I bumped into them, I don't. If they bump into me, however, I am obliged bump back. |

I stand stoic and text message all through the performance. If I am with a friend I usually talk, the band is great background music.
