*The official* "STAND THE FUCK UP and Don'T Be A FUCKING WUSS" Thread

DriftingByTheStorm

Back from Camden I

What the fuck is wrong with people!?!

EVERYONE WAS SITTING DOWN
during encore breaks.

NEARLY NO ONE WAS CHEERING.

You guys suck.

seriously.

WORST CROWD I'VE EVER SEEN! ! !

DC WAS BETTER!!!

ps - I'm TALKING ABOUT THE 10 CLUB SECTION -- The pit especially.

THE BACK OF THE HOUSE WAS GREAT,
but everytime they would start a round of clapping, the pit basicaly said "fuck off".
weak ass bastards.

revoke senority.
there, i said it.

i dont know - ya know they are comin back out. its not like a *real* encore. that would be funny though, because of the sitting wussies, after the first set, they turn the lights on and thats it. :P

I don't know - I kind of enjoyed watching 2 grown men rolling around on the floor trying to beat the crap out of each other during Lukin, prompting Eddie to say, "ahh the city of brotherly love." Hopefully they felt more manly after engaging in a homoerotic embrace for several minutes (not that there's anything wrong with it.) I guess at least they were showing some energy

Better that they sat at that time, then when the boys are on.

I know I sometimes sit down and have a drink of water (something I ALWAYS have onhand)...so that I'm ready for the asskicking I know I'm about to get.

jesus christ.. we just got out asses kicked for almost an hour and a half.. the band is allowed to take a break.. why aren't we? we're allowed to sit down for a min or 2 and rest our legs

I hear that man. I cant stand that either. I feel many times like Im the only one rocking out to shit. Me and Pjtaper were row 12 for nite 2 and we were like 2 of the few going nuts! Personally I feed off that energy and its my release at a show so when people tell me to settle down I could care less cause its a fuckin rock concert. I could sit at home and watch the dvds if its gonna be like that.

merlin401

Nooo, dont revoke seniority. Keep all those deadbeats contained up front. I want to keep the lawn as crazy, fun and loud as it was tonight lol!

chipinmyhead

I see what you mean, OP, but for me it's worse when people sit during the opening band, esp. when we're lucky enough to have MMJ. They're awesome.

phungi

am I the only one who likes to wallow in my butt sweat after a set?

BackwardsBlues1

I wasn't at camden, but I NEED to sit during the encore breaks or I'll pass out. if you saw the condition I was in at boston II, you'd understand...

I don't like to wallow in your butt sweat, but maybe there are others who do.

DeLukin

What a stupid post. If you want to bitch, bitch about people sitting down during songs, not people taking a break between sets. Holy crap, I sat down during the encores to try to rest up for the next onslaught not because I'm a pussy.

pjtaper

I have been going insane NON stop... fuck yeah Eli... I even managed to break a chair in Camden tonight, during leash, and not on purpose!!!!!!

DirtyFrancis

I guess you can gauge a band's success when the only things it's fans can complain about are people hording posters and sitting during the encore breaks. People enjoy the shows in their own way, some rage like teenagers not getting laid, some rock out like that "Rockin' in the Free World Kid" on Touring Band 2000 and some simply stand there and let the wave of great tunes wash over them. We've all had the opportunity too see the guys fairly frequently let's not fall into the Dave Matthew's Band elitiest fan complex...

Before the show began people in the back were going nuts and everyone was starting to get riled up. The two idiots behind me, overweight heifers that they were, kept making wonderful comments such as "Oh wow, a stagehand, everyone stand" "Look at me, I've never been to a show, don't these idiots know that they don't come out until the lights go down?". I had to do all within my power from turning around and telling them to STFU, people are hear just to have a good time! If they want to stand and cheer, hit baloons, start chants, etc. let them be. But I was with my girlfriend and I didn't want to make a scene. But this Thursday in Jersey, if any of those bitches are near me prepare for an earful!!!

I have to sit for a bit during the breaks.. I have a bad back and its the only relief I get. What pisses me off is the people on cell phones text messaging. There was a guy infront of me on night 1 who was to drunk and passed out in his seat for the whole show. Night 2 he was infront of me again and was bitching that he missed the show so what does he do, he sat down and was texting all night, and when I say all night I mean all night. What the FUCK, what a waste of a ticket.

I know who you speak of... must be great to look out and see them in the first 3 rows every night...
oh well, I have been about 6-15th row every night, and I get pointed out and laughed at by the band every time!
SHOW SOME EMOTION PEOPLE, the more energy we give to the band, the more they give back!
Please, listen to the Boston or Grand Rapids boots, the fans were AWESOME there!

FYI,

Camden II was MUCH BETTER.

You are forgiven.
Everything has changed.
Things were different then.

Seriously, My ass was kicked as well. I sat ONLY during the breaks, and was non-stop rocking out the rest of the time. Blood, Comatose, and Leash at the end???? My god, I didn't think I had any energy left, but somehow I found it!!!!
