Concert Tips,Tricks & Advice

I'm the last person to judge about concerts I've been to some interesting ones in my dayFirst of all if it's outside make sure you- dress appropriate for the weather - have water with you ( as a nurse we've seen lots of dehydrated concert goers in the summer, stay hydrated)- don't bring a lot of crap with you to weigh your bag down- keep some money in your bag and some on your person in case some gets lost/stolenMake sure you're well versed on the lyrics and anyone incredibly important to the band/performer in case you run into them before the show, I've run into Big Rob (Jonas brothers), Kat Gilbride (Honor Society), Rob Dyer, and Matt Flyzik ( All Time Low), and many more, never hurts to leave a good impression with the behind the scenes crew cause it can help you out in the long run, I've been let into sound checks I didn't have tickets for, because of acknowledging the crew.Hope some of that helped, feel free to ask away any more, I'm kind of flying by the seat of my pants here not knowing the venue of the show you're going to

Best option is a satchel or a shoulder bag, they're the easiest to pack and you don't have to constantly be throwing it back over your shoulder like a regular purse, but it still has enough room to put anything you need it in, I put it over my shoulder and leave the actual bag portion in front of me cause that way I know no one can get into it. I'm assuming you're a lady here but putting stuff in your bra while convenient can easily get uncomfortable and fall out, dropping a phone or money in a crowd is a death sentence for said item, you'll be lucky to retrieve it once it's on the floor. I have tried to do both and by far a shoulder bag is the way to go

Very true! Concerts in bars while fun are risky if you're alone . Never ever ever leave a drink unattended and have a plan to get home if you are drinking

If it's your first time going to a concert ever than if suggest taking a friend, if it's not your first concert it shouldn't be a problem to head for it solo just remember to take your cell phone with you and have it charged in case you need to get a hold of a friend. And if you're planning on waiting outside before the show ( I'm not sure who you're going to see), you can easily make friends with other people in the line/crowd, I've done it more than once some of my best friends are fellow concert mates I met in line So yeah go have a great time, just don't leave with strangers and keep your phone on you just in case you need to call a friend

Try to think of anything original, skip favourite colours and inspiration questions guaranteed the boys have heard them a million times, be a bit cheeky if you can, if you're nervous about forgetting your question always write it down in your phone or on a paper you'll have with youNever hurts to suggest a local attraction or restaurant for them to try if they get the chance Promotes local business and they'll think of you for suggesting it if they goNow I'm not a huge 5SOS fan but I do enjoy their music so bear with me if any of these are common knowledge Some fun question examples could be 1- if they've ever named their instruments, if so how did they acquire such a name2- any crazy tour injury or prank stories that fans don't already know3- craziest delicacy they've tried while touring4- if they could collaborate on a song who would they choose and why.5- if they have any attraction or restaurant recommendations for anyone traveling to Australia to look up or to try Hope this has helped a little, have a fantastic time! PS always keep a sharpie in your purse just incase, never know when you'll need it

Depends on how photo crazy you are, for me concerts with crushes are a bad idea because I usually come home with a few hundred photos, kills the mood if you're obsessively taking photos but if you aren't photo crazy at concerts with crushes are fantastic, those slow jams are the perfect opportunity to lean in to them or the opportunity for a kiss and it makes for a great story

Hi sorry I suck at checking these messages! But the best trick to not getting sick at concerts is to stay hydrated especially at summer concerts, for future reference take two water bottles have one frozen so you have cold water all day at the ice melts and brig snacks granola bars can do wonders with taking the edge off when you start getting woozy from being excited and standing in the heat of a crowd

Honestly unless you're the one doing the crowd surfing, surfers suck, you get kicked in the head and it's hard to push them forward, but I have seen some people surfing the crowd that were on the very large end of the scale, if you want to give it a go, go nuts but just be prepared to have lots of people grab your bum and be prepared to potentially fall

15. Bring extra batteries - nothing sucks more then being half way through a show and having your camera die, have them out of a the packaging and in your pockets in case you need to change them in a hurry.

I have done this on way too many occasions

15. Have a great fucking time.
