Attending concerts alone

[Silver Springs]

If you're alone you don't have to worry about losing anybody when you're trying to sneek into the front "VIP" area

True, but you don't immediately have anybody to set your bail if you get busted, either. That would be the downside of going alone.

There is that technicality, lol. But I'm blessed with a small frame, so I can easily hide if need be. I got to the front of an R.E.M. concert by crawling between people's legs XD

You guys are too funny!! I'm getting inspired to go! Just need to find a ticket now. Hehe.

Keep the info coming. You're giving me some good ideas! Who knows what the night might bring!

You bring up another excellent point - it's often easier to get a good seat if you're only looking for 1. I've gotten front row 3 times by checking ticketmaster/tickets.com the day or two before the show (and I needed 2 tickets!) Go for it!

I too have been to several show's alone. One of the perks is you can spend more money on yourself!! If your taking a date or spouse the tickets can go from $100.00 to $200.00 and its sometime easier to find 1 seat then 2 close to stage, I say "go for it"!!

Haven't been able to pull up anything on the floor yet. Just the first ring around the floor. Which I'm not opposed to at all, especially since for this show, there's supposedly no edge walk.

I've been checking stubhub and craigslist too. Thinking people are getting desperate to unload.

I usually go to Stevie/Mac shows alone these past years.

I've been to quite a few concerts alone and always had agreat time. You already have something in common with everyone there and so yes, people are often very chatty. Also you can get to the front much easier! I'm actually going to a (Kylie) concert on my own on Monday,

I've not been to concerts alone as such but I've been with online friends. I know that if I went to a Blondie show that I'd never be 'alone' because I'll always bump into someone I've talked to before.

Going with other massive fans helped in getting me to meet Debbie Harry last night

I don't think there's anything wrong with going to a concert alone! I went to see FM during the SYW Tour in Phx alone and I had a ball!!!!! I figure if you're seeing your fav band then who cares who's standing next to you! Just rock out and try not to strain your voice like I do everytime lol!!!
