The Concert

Hey guys new post time. So my friends and I have gotten into a tradition these past couple of years of buying tickets to a concert in general admission and getting there really early so we can get front row. Concerts past have been extremely enjoyable, but this one was a little more hectic. The tour was the nightmare before christmas tour with new medicine avenged sevenfold stone sour and Hollywood undead. (By the way new medicine is an amazing band. look up there songs some of my favorites are rich kids, resolve to fight, little sister, and laid, but all of their songs on the album race you to the bottom are amazing) anyways back to the concert. we made it through new medicine and holly wood undead without any complaints it was a nice atmosphere. but then stone sour came up. Stone sour if you don't know is made up of members of slip knot who are an extremely violent band with equally violent bands. When they cam out the atmosphere changed immediately. When they started playing the floor began to move like crazy. If it weren't for the fact that we were packed in so tightly. my friends and i wouldn't have been able to keep our feet under us and falling to the floor in that is the last thing you want to have happen. There was this guy near us, obviously stoned or drunk or a combination of both, and he was extremely belligerent. he was getting a little to aggressive and (names have been changed from here on out to protect anonymity) at one point he began to get to close to my friend stans head and when he started to become physical, stan threw his head back and hit the guy in the face. now this guys a solid 260 and remember he is messed up on drugs and stand is like 185 so it wasn't a fair match up. i looked over and this guy had stan in a rear naked choke and no one was doing anything about it. so I started yelling get off him and punching him in the ribs as hard as i could my other friends, bruce and kent also began punching this guy and he didn't even feel it. Just to show you how messed up this guy was my friend kent is 215 strong and has been in boxing for a few years now. and this guy didn't react. he did however let go and we got away from him imediately. We were pretty lucky once stone sour was done and avenged sevenfold came out the concert was enjoyable again, and nightmare was one of the most amazing crazy songs ever. Thanks for reading

  3. Sounds like a hell of a show! I'm sure it was hectic in the moment but it's something you'll remember for a long time. To bad you couldn't have put that fatass in his place.
