What is your worst experience at a live show?
What is your worst experience at a live show? Fist fights, pit action, bad band performance, etc.

Broken nose at SOIA, first and last time I took a shot like that at a show. Don't even know what happend.
Worst performance was The Dropkick Murphys on this last tour, they were too loud and just seemed tired. The Horrorpops were killer though.

One of the times I saw the Dayglo's was kinda fucked. It was back in like 97 or so. Raging blizzard outside and people are bringing in snow and
throwing on the dance floor so it got pretty slippery. People also started breaking bottles. I gut a big gash in my leg, my elbow got torn uo and so
did the back of my head. Somebody started swinging an acoustic guitar around and it hit me in the head twice. Some chicks spiked bracelet cut open
the side of my head. I was a bloody mess. It was a great show though!

Social Distortion Gang Green, and Weirdos in 1990. Got into a fight with some dude I knew about a girl. Got thrown out. Missed Social D.

Damn, I got no horror stories like those... but I guess that's what happens when you spend most of your time in hardcore in the midwest.... I was at a
show in Indianapolis once featuring mostly now defunct locals and Poison The Well before they got REALLY bad, like their first US tour I think, and I
had eaten something bad... had spent most of that show in a funky toilet at the venue..... GROSS!

The worst I can think of right now was my experience at British Invasion back in March. That was a fuckin mess, stabbings, tear gas, cops with
shotguns, fences torn down, cop cars destroyed, burning dumpster in the street, nearby businesses gutted. Yeah, I think that was probably the worst
one. I have had shows where worse things happened directly to me or my friends, but not so much at once and not on such a large scale.

I had to sit through an hour of fucking Gavin DeGraw just so I could see Ben Folds.
I also slipped in some beer at a show once and fell flat on my face, which gave me a blackeye, causing me to drive and walk around with one eye closed
for like 2-3 days. Not a super huge injury but it pissed me off.
