How do y'all on the rail not piss your pants?


Recommended Posts

1.) How (if at all) do you get back to your spots right in front of the stage when you go to the bathroom?

 

a.) catheters

 

b.) dehydration

 

c.) nice/delusional people allowing you back through?

 

d.) tazers

 

e.) you don't worry about it because you've already wet yourselves from being so close to such incomparable performances

Pure and simple etiquette.

I was in the front row at the Pines, I really didn't feel all that well, thought I was gonna puke (turned out to be dehydration), and was about to attempt an excursion to the bathroom, only to realize that it would be impossible to get through the crowd twice.

 

But needless to say, I didn't get sick, and also maintained my "seats", win-win.

It probably goes without saying but if you started to vomit the crowd would part like the Red Sea, getting to the bathroom wouldn't have been a problem.

usually being nice (without too much eye contact cause you might need to use your elbows for the stubborn) works but I would love a catheder because I don't like walking in the first place

At Lollapalooza a few years back, a dude near us peed into a plastic bottle to avoid having to make his way through the throng. This is probably more easily accomplished by the male species versus the female.

You left out the best part: him launching it, with the cap off, to the back of the crowd. :ermm

:lol i didn't remember if he did that or not. I was like "Hmm, i remember him tossing it too... but wait, no, he couldn't have!"

If you dance hard enough, all moisture gets excreted through your sweat glands. I danced so hard at the Columbia show that my pants fell off. oceanman knows. "Pants off dance off". :lol

 

Plus I only drink water, no booze. Alcohol is a diuretic which makes you have to pee.

I hit the ladies right when Spiders starts. Late in the first set, while it is building, always make it back before Nels goes at it. ALWAYS works, especially if I work my way back front with a "sorry, I have a place further, so sorry, I'm going to keep moving, excuse me, sorry."

As you're leaving, catch as many eyes as possible, smile, and say "I'm coming back..." Repeat all the way out, and do your best to return by the same route, repeating, "I came back...".

 

People are surprisingly sane. Usually. I've only had to get tight-lipped and muscley a couple of times.

exactly. We all know who have been standing near us for the entire show.

 

I was on the middle "walkway" on the first riser, with the security guard right in my face the whole time (poor guy). I slipped him a fiver and told him that I'd be back. Not only did he keep a spot for me, he was exceptional for getting the drunkies who were trying to weasel their way up front back where they came from.

 

side note: Buying a beer for the tall guy in front of you who is wearing a knit cap pulled to the very tippy-top of his head and asking him politely to remove it also adds to a more pleasant concert experience. Win Win.
