#punk concert

[ftxhc]

I saw Frank Turner on the Undefeated tour this weekend! It was an absolute banger of a show, even on a Friday at midnight after a looong week!

He played lots of new stuff, but lots of classics too. I moshed for the first time, which was really fun! My ponytail almost got ripped out a couple times bc everyone was so sweaty it kept sticking to people lmao 😳 and my legs were covered in beer and sticky at the end of the night.

So much fun! This was my third FT concert and hopefully there will be more to come!

Talking about gatekeeping, i once got punched in the face by a group of skinhead that are known in the scene to target newcomers (The punk scene here is pretty small, I've gone to concerts in different cities and still see the same faces, so it's easy to spot the new guys) I guess they like to see if new kids can handle the punk life???? Anyways i was trying to go out of the pit and this bald brick wall just grabbed me by the shirt, pushed me into the pit again, and then his friend fucking run onto me and punched me in the face. I blacked out and found myself out of the pit with the same guys yelling and telling me how sorry they were.

It was terrifying I'm like 5'4 and weight basically nothing and got my ass kicked so hard i am now afraid of bald people

Middle School: Biology Immune - Green Day live in concert

[lunargracklepersonal]

Went to my first concert last night, at an anarchist co op a half hour out of town. Five local and bay area punk bands, $10 cover. Good shit. Wore my jacket-in-progress and one of my punkish hats, no eyeliner or nothing cuz I found out about it through a friend on discord like fifteen minutes before we needed to leave.

The venue was really cool. Small space, little building full of anarchist and anticapitalist books with a drum kit and the coolest bathroom I've ever seen (full of trans-anarchist graffiti, narcan on the toilet tank). Table full of free zines out front.

Mosh pit was in the building, outside was just loud enough to listen and have a good time, which is what my group and I did as I didn't have time to find ear protection and the local mosh scene is a bit on the violent side.

Afterwards we went for pizza and wings before heading home. Had a great time.

shout-out to the transbian couple at the small punk show I went to a few months ago, you have no idea how much you encouraged me

if you’re looking for a cool new punk band to listen to, i highly recommend looking for local small bands before searching “punk” into spotify.

don’t know how to find them?

what i did is i looked up what some punk bars in my area, i started going on random nights and found bands i liked that way. (if you’re under 21, you can still look up the bars, but go to their instagram, see what bands are playing and see if they are on band camp, spotify, etc.)

this has worked amazing for me, i’ve made so many friends, it’s to the point where certain bands shows feel like monthly family reunions full of so much love and genuine compassion.

hope this helps anyone wanting to be more involved in the subculture

EDIT: if you live in a small town, just search the nearest big city. or honestly any city that you vibe with. every area has a slightly different sound and scene find what you blend with!!

There's just something so therapeutic about screaming your lungs out to your favourite songs at a concert
