I simply don't understand the concept of going to a concert just to hear a band play a song that you could easily just play all by yourself. Just have fun and yell **** or whatever.

One of the most disappointing concert experiences I've ever had was at an Iced Earth show, not because the band wasn't good, but because me and another dude decided we'd start a mosh pit all by ourselves and everyone around us aggressively wanted none of it. If you don't want that then fine I guess, but Jesus Christ none of the other people did anything but stand perfectly still. It's a metal show. You're stupid just for being there. You might as well give a brain dead thumbs up for other idiots who want to hurt each other for no good reason.

Even the guy at the merch stand I asked about it said that mosh pits could start depending on the crowd, and obviously our crowd was a bunch of boring mannequin ****s. I was in my early 20s btw just for reference.
