To the woman in cover-alls at the Sloan show: you suck. People like you at concerts are the worst. You try and get up front well after the band has started and expect to get the spot you want just because… why exactly? Because it’s closer to someone you know? Because you deserve it? I don’t think so. You expected me to give up my spot for you despite me being there long before the band even started. You pushed me, banged into me repeatedly, and then purposefully got in my face just to spite me. Then you even had the gall to shit-talk me to your friends right behind my back. Amazing. I even explained to you that I wouldn’t be able to see if I had moved to where you “wanted me to move” but that’s just not good enough for Queen Cover-Alls. And, hey, FYI – everyone else around us also thought you were an idiot. —Underwhelmed by obnoxiousness

Everyone knows that if your wearing overalls and you’re not a farmer, there’s an 84% chance you’re a shit head.
Next concert – sharpen your elbows with a file.
I am typically not a proponent of violence however…
If you could force farts anytime you wanted, that would be a good talent for just such a time as this. Make sure you eat nice and spicy.
I’ve heard it all from late arrivals who think they are entitled to my spot up front at shows.
“But it’s OUR song, we NEED to be here,” as they push me out of their way. Wrong answer: your emotional attachment to a song does not supersede mine. Nor does it entitle you to my spot. Oowatanite, chickies.
“But I’ve travelled all the way from Montreal to see the band.” Should have left earlier if you wanted a spot up front. All this and more.
“You don’t own this spot.” No, we don’t. But we got here over an hour before you so we could use it for the show. Who taught you how to live like that?
“But we LUUUUUUV him!” Go away groupies. You still ain’t like me.
Then there was the guy who introduced his fists to the skirmish in his bid to spot steal. That’ll earn you a quick exit from the show. I’m a highway star.
I don’t mind sharing for a few minutes if someone squeezes through to get a few pics of the band, but I will not give up my spot.
Wow, what an asshole. Had the same thing happen at other shows. You want the spot up front? Show up while the stage is being set up for the act you came for/sit through the shitty band playing before the band you came for.
