I went to a concert on the weekend and our tickets were for the main floor. This particular venue doesn't have seats on the main floor, it is all open and it's standing room style.
I'm not very tall...5'-2" on a good day. We went to stand on the main floor and everyone was jockeying for position. I pretty much didn't see any of the opening act...this venue doesn't have video screens since it's kinda small.
The main act started, and I was kind of bobbing up and down on my tip toes trying to see better, when this one very drunk person was pushing and shoving his way from the back of the pack to the front of the stage. He was stepping on people, and elbowing his way through...luckily, on my left was a very tall and very muscular guy who totally sheltered me the entire time...he was cute, so I didn't mind. After all of this shoving subsided, all of the people lined up so that I could see through their heads...it was great! The show was fantastic, but the heat was really unbearable...it was like a sauna in there...it was 92 degrees outside with like 90% humidity...everybody was sweating and as people moved to the music, you couldn't help but have sweaty arms brushing up against you. Then, as the encore was wrapping up, a head popped over my shoulder and said "Great show, huh?" and I thought it was my friend at first until I felt a huge hot and sweaty hand on my right bum cheek. I turn around and it was a very large, very sweaty stranger, to which I immediately elbowed in his abundant gut, while shouting "Get Lost!!!" Ew. I could feel the sweat from his hand through my jeans.....
Regardless of all of that, I had a great time. My neck kinda hurt after from straining to see for so long, and I had like a 30 minute shower scrubbing all of the stranger sweat off me, but it was worth it!
