How old is too old to go to shows? I'm not talking pro musicians, but local music shows
Youre never too old, unless you arent able to hold a discussion about music. If i see a 50 year old at an underground show, he better not be dumb or deaf, but otherwise i dont give a shit
there was a study in the uk that said once you get to around 35 you got to start letting it go. this more more about clubbing but I think things would overlap.
the age at which you think the music is too damn loud
>he better not be dumb or deaf
That's pretty shitty of you. Imagine gatekeeping music on a basis of disability
when you think about it, it kind of makes sense
I saw Slowdive last year, and half the people at the gig were couples in their late 40s who were probably fans of the band during their teens. You're never too old for shows.
I'm not talking about professional musicians, I'm talking about a local music scene.
Depends on the band....what the fuck
Is it a local band who's been around and the audience is all your age? Or is it a band comprised of teenagers with a crowd even younger, in which case, wtf are you doing there?
I'd say you shouldnt be more than 10-15 older than those performing, unless they're playing at a place that sells alcohol, then who fucking cares? Adults are adults
There's always plenty of 40-50 year old dudes alone, or old couples.
No one gives a shit but retarded kids trying to be cool. You'll get more shit if you're a fattie though.
I'm just talking in general, the bands around here seem to be at the least a bit college aged at the least since I live in a college town
I mean I don't know, college kids like shit music. I live in an area where there are local metal and punk bands who've been around for decades, and the shows are primarily all adults.
there's a lot of bands here dude, there's a pretty vibrant music scene of what seems to be all ages. i want to start going to shows and being around others again. just feel im getting older (I am, but that's not really the point) and have missed out of that part in my life.
So just go to age appropriate shows....go to shows at places that serve alcohol and where the audience is mostly adult
Being into pop music past the age of like 16 is embarrassing Tbh.
a lot of the shows are at places that serve alcohol,i've found house shows and shit too. mostly seems like it's people in their 20's-early 30's at the most.
so you're good.
I think going to see a band/artist is different from clubbing though
sounds like a legit study
you could probably find the article if you google it
t. social retard
to answer your question op, it depends on a band. If its some indie sadboy shit then dont go there unless youre below 25
