I wouldn't be able to handle it. Well i would, but only from a distance. Definitely not my scene. I went to a Family Values show in phoenix a few years ago when evenescence opened for Korn. They were good shows, but the crowd was fucking ridiculous! It was like prison for a day. There was a huge bonfire and the crowd was all around it. And this was a fucking amphitheater. I mean it was all inclined and people were stumbling around it. a fight broke out that turned into a brawl. Saw a guy do a windmill sending a full gallon jug of water right into the crowd. I wanted to tackle him when i saw that. Anyway, good show, shitty crowd. The experience is what you make it though. I'm sure you will have a great time. But let me ask you this...can you find psychedelics at these shows? The two tool shows i saw at red rocks in june I had several people offer me shrooms each night. that was cool. Coincidentally i already had a bunch of shrooms and weed. colorado and cali are the bomb i tell ya.
Oh dude, that's any show really. I've seen good and bad shit happen at the many metal shows I've been to. People helping people, people being dicks to people, it's really no different from daily life man. I've seen a whole pit just stop when a guy got his nose broken and everybody helped the guy. I've also seen guys do some fucked up shit to chicks that were crowdsurfing, but chicks know what can happen when they go up, so it's kind of at their own risk in a way. As far as finding psychadelics, I always just brought my own. Only really tripped at like one show, I usually just get drunk. I'm sure you can find them if you look hard enough though. Goes with anything at shows.

Have I mentioned the time I watched a dude get nailed in the back of the dome by a budweiser tall boy from across the mosh pit?
Also, during dragon force in 2008 we had a solid 2-3 minutes of crowd surfer after crowd surfer all over the pit.

Yeah, motorcycles last year too. Me and a buddy snuck in twice last year. Probably end up buying tickets this year though. There's a thread about it up here somewhere I think. Mayhem festy is a pretty decent show. I've seen Korn quite a few times though, same with Hatebreed, and a few other bands there. I really want to see Lamb of God though. Been wanting to see them for years now.
