10 Annoying Things That Happen At Concerts

I LOVE concerts. But that doesn't mean they don't annoy me.

10 Annoying Things That Happen At Concerts
Alessandro Maldonado

I am a big fan of concerts. Such a fan, in fact, that I have gone to 25 of them. There are a few annoying things, however, that drive me nuts at almost every one I've been to. Things that just always seem to happen that make me wonder why it is that I love concerts so much. I'm actually guilty of a few of these, but that doesn't mean they're not annoying. Without further ado, here are 10 annoying things that always happen at concerts and festivals:

1. The lighting makes it impossible to get a good picture.

You'll get a great picture of a bright flash of light, though. And some classics where you can't make out the face of the artist but can vaguely see their silhouette.


2. The prices are ridiculous.

No, I don't have $40 to spend on a hoodie that literally only has the artist's initials on it. However, I will take the shirt with their face on it for the same price.


3. The tallest man in the world decides to stand in front of you.

He also just happens to be sitting next to the shortest man in the world. If only you were one seat over.


4. Your favorite song is the ONE the artist decides not to sing.

Like, why me?


5. Drunk people are obnoxious.

There's always those couple of people who have had wayyy too much to drink, and are annoying because of it.


6. A fangirl sticks her sign up and blocks your view.

This only happens at select concerts, but it can be really annoying.


7. You can't hear the actual artist because everyone else is screaming.

I know that the audience being crazy is part of what makes concerts so fun, and I'm guilty of screaming myself. But that doesn't mean that in the moment I love someone screeching "I LOVE YOU TAYLOR" in my ear.


8. Someone forgot to put on deodorant.

I hope you know you're contributing to the sweat sock smell. It's people like you that need to be stopped.


9. It's over before you know it.

It's like the second the artist steps on stage, time speeds up. You're always left wondering how 2 hours flew by so quickly.


10. The Aftermath.

The Aftermath includes being so parched with thirst it feels as though you've been hiking through the desert, trying to get out of the venue and to your car through the herds of people doing the same thing, and having sore feet and vocal chords...all while already experiencing the inevitable Post Concert Depression (PCD).

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
