Probably the last great rock show I attended was the 2000 Voodoo Music Festival in New Orleans. Me and some friends spent the entire day listening to so many great bands on different stages.
The final act was Stone Temple Pilots. We were lucky enough to be right up front. I ended up with a concussion from being kicked in the head multiple times by crowd surfers. Little known fact...at the 30:50 mark you can see me in the backwards red hat turning around to make sure I wasn't about to get kicked in the head again by the crowd surfer in the white hat. 😂

@AppleFangirl Pretty nostalgic to see how red hats were ok in 2000. Redhat in bewteen and then the other thing, whoa.
@AppleFangirl A tall friend of mine adapted a strategy of "what goes up" and pushed...
But i guess punching is ok. If they don't watch out for people they might kick, they don't mind being hit, right?
@admitsWrongIfProven It's the price you pay. I've been banged up pretty good in my younger days in the pit. I used to engage in a lot of hyper-masculine and testosterone filled activities. Classic overcompensation.
@AppleFangirl My high point was hand holding, but yeah, i did some pretty "notice me" reckless shit.
As long as we are not dooming humanity by our sole decision, right? Live a little, kick some rando in the head, pick a senseless fight. Be a creep, hurt someone.
As long as we are not carrying on a system meant to destroy humanity, all is forgivable!
@admitsWrongIfProven Agreed. Now I'm the kindest, gentlest person you'd ever meet. That happens when you don't have to pretend any longer.
@AppleFangirl I'm happy you found your way :-)
@admitsWrongIfProven Yep as a University of Georgia grad MAGA has pretty much ruined wearing red hats for a lot of folks that went to school there. 😡
The crowd surfer in the white hat eventually made it to me and did, indeed, kick me in the head. I responded by punching upwards and right into his nuts. Ahhh male copsplay me...😂
