People who are used to emo concerts must have quite the shock at a PJ concert with everyone standing, dancing, singing, fist pounding, etc. It's scary for them, like a Minnesota Presbyterian at a Southern Baptist revival meeting, they probably think "these people are crazy!". :roll:
Has anyone here ever been at a concert and commanded to sit down by an angry mob? I saw Chris Cornell at the Beacon Theater a few years back and had first row balcony seats. Me and my friend Chaz
first of all, it's bs that people were yelling at you - i mean it's crappy that they would do that to you.
second of all, i think it's great that you have a friend named Chaz. we should all be so lucky.
Chaz is also a big PJ fan and PJ concert frequenter, and is very friendly. If the band comes around to NJ or NY next year and you plan on attending, I could introduce you, and just maybe you'd hit it off... Then you'd be "One of the lucky ones. I refer to those whose who have friends named Chaz, yeah..."
Man, there are few things more frustrating than paying good money to see a rock n roll show, my favorite band ever Pearl Jam, and everybody in front of me stands up the whole time. Don't get me wrong, I'm a little over 6'2", so I could see over people if I stood too, but I paid so much for the seat I want to enjoy its comforts. Do you people stand at a movie theater? At the ballet? When you pee?
Just sit down already. It would enhance everybody's experience if we could all just take it easy. These PJ concerts can drag on for two hours or more. Do you realize the long term damage you could be risking to the lower joints, ligaments, and tendons of your lower extremities? Don't you get worn out?
The only thing more frustrating than the incessant standing up at rock shows is how some people insist on singing along to the songs. I believe the BAND is being paid to sing, not you. But I digress, somebody covered this already. It would be nice if they would turn the volume down on those speakers. I sat close to them once and boy oh boy were my ears ringing!
IF this is legit... listen to a fucking bootleg in your living room.

I think this must be from the same poster who started the thread 'Enough with the singing!', if not maybe they should hook up and go together? Apologies if this has been said already, got tired of reading. :yawn:

Most folks have none, but you've got your one, aw huh

I don't sit because i don't know who's sorry ass was sitting in that seat before me.
I heard you can get hemoroids from sitting on a seat where a hemoroidal ass has sat.
...
Oh... and Yes.. i stand at restaurants, operas and movies, too. People get a bit annoyed and say shit... but one flash of my Smith and Wesson Peacemaker usually shuts them up.

You posted the exact same thing on the DMB warehouse boards. How can Pearl Jam and DMB be your favourite band ever? Me thinks you doth have too much bitterness on your hands. It makes me feel better that both boards aren't taking you seriously.
Edit: If this is a joke, well played.

I can promise you 2 things - it is a joke, and i have never and will never be spending time on the DMB board. don't get me wrong, they're OK. but I only have love for PJ message boards. if there's a post like mine, check the time stamp. somebody may have liked my creative hilarity and decided to "borrow" it for the DMB board. it doesn't really work as well though, unless somebody also started a "don't sing at concerts thread" too.

This ain't a Coldplay or Bruce Hornsby show you're talking about. Grow some balls and celebrate rock 'n roll like it should be celebrated!!! On your feet; not on your ass.

This smiley is brand new to me - in all my decades of surfing message boards and chat rooms, and receiving clever emails from friends, I have never seen this particular one. I feel like I've just spotted a bald eagle or even sasquatch. What is it and what does it mean kind sir?
Guandanamo base now....Someone call 911 please couse im out of battery in my cellphone..
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
I can't sit down without crushing my bat&balls so i have to stand up even in movies, at home i have the comfort of sitting on a chair with a hole so my junk can just hang :oops:
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
Being a Fat Bastard I can't fit in my seat :roll: .

It is my self portrait, or more specifically the snapshot of the look I would be giving you while seeing you sitting down at a PJ show. Took hours to make...hope you like it!

that said, do we really have to stand for "just breathe" and "the end"?
that could be an excellent opporotunity to conseve energy.
just sayin'
Hey, I thought I was the only Princess KJ on the boards!

This was the funniest part of this thread, for me. I really don't think the seats were just leftover from a previous gig . . .
I just want someone to be there for . . .
I don't sit because i don't know who's sorry ass was sitting in that seat before me.
