that makes total sense. if u are at a festival or whatever and actually carry stuff you NEED and USE then yes. Totally get it. Its those damn chicks that have the huge glamorous purses and just wear them without ever having to open them for anything! i have a friend that carries a HUGE purse and she has JUNK in there and she even says she doesnt know why she carries it cuz she needs nothing in there!!!! :eek: do u ever worry about getting ringworm at shows????????????

does she carry it to the pit at shows? To be honest, I've never seen a designer bag in a pit

No need... I've enough bags but thanks anyway. Besides, I'm not sure a 'fanny pack' as you call it (still have to laugh hysterically at that one ) would be big enough for all my stuff.

Look for me next tour in the front row Helen. I'll pop your designer bag in the pit cherry. but I'll leave the big ones at home. I don't want to offend anyone.

I went to a show the other night and took a teeny tiny little purse that hangs diagonally across my body. It's perfect for ID, money and lipgloss and stashables. There was some dumbass girl with a gigantic purse squeezing her way to the stage. She probably had hard backed two books in there as well as her dinner. It totally made me think of this topic and how cool I was because I didn't have a gigantic pain-in-the-ass bag.

i bring my ticket and maybe a few bucks in my pocket. I mean you cant even jump with a purse on!.. i don't even like bringing my phone unless it will fit in my pocket :P

Who Princess

I don't like to carry a purse even if a show is seated because I don't want to have to worry about it. I try to wear cargo pants or shorts and just put my stuff in my pockets.

When I went to ACL fest in September I took a small bag but I still had my wallet in one cargo pocket and some stuff in the other one. At the gate they made me empty my pockets because they thought I might be smuggling in a flask! You could buy alcohol inside but you couldn't bring it in or take it out. My husband could not stop laughing because I don't even drink!

stickboy

pants or shorts with side pockets are the way to go

u got roomfor your keys, camera, money and other small shit,
leave the rest of the shit in your car, hotel or home..makes much more sense

I never have a problem jumping and maybe I'm wrong, but nobody's ever complained about my bag... I could even take the hint from a dirty look here and there or maybe an elbow on the sly... but nope, nothing!

the word 'fanny' on this side of the pond is a slang term for 'the female genetalia'

Which is why Enid Blyton books were soooooooooooo filthy Dick AND Fanny???? cmon... that's just genius.

I went to a New Kids On The Block concert last night.
*hangs head in shame*
...but that's not the point.

I was AMAZED at all the girls in heels with huge purses. And not just cheap, crappy purses either. I'm talking Coach, Louis Vuitton, Fendi....purses that if something ever spilled on it, you'd be pissed. I can't imagine going to a show like that.

Not to mention, i realized while standing in the middle of it all, i'm totally NOT a "woo girl".

Anyway, yeah. No purses at shows for me.

well, since over here they're associated with American tourists and middle aged people, I guess it depends on who you ask

so if i was in europe, i would get showered in trash if i rolled into a PJ concert with a fanny pack loaded with granola bars, juicy juice, maps, passport, tissues, and whatever the hell else you can fit in those things?

Yeah the last time I wore one was in the 80's. I think they are goofy looking, I rather just bring a small shoulder bag/messenger bag
