KimopoBotar Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Punk rock. Or any music that makes you feel pumped. And a shot or two of liquor. Mostly the liquor actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poof Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 punk rock shows w/good audiences are an amazing workout if youre up front constantly fighting the crowd as an individual to get up close and not get pushed back and when one side of the crowd as one organism pushes against the other side and everyone almost falls down then unites and pushes back and everyones squished the combined body heat and cracking bones makes it like bikram yoga works the arms as you keep them up so they dont get pinned to your sides from the crowd packed in like sardines and then the music starts and theres the jumping and screaming and carrying/groping the crowdsurfers the endurance required to survive the show and then after the show. you're half naked in downtown columbus ohio and you have to walk back to your car only to find it's been towed! and it's 2007 so your phone is useless and the battery is dead anyway you walk a mile to the address where the sign said all towed cars go to. your cars not there and theres nobody there. you wander the streets aimlessly like a zombie. until you see a tow truck stopped at a red light down the block and you run. you ask him where your car could be. he tells you about the other lot they take them to. its another mile and a half away. finally you arrive and theres your car! but its too late theyve gone home for the night so you have to call the after hour number on the sign. so you backtrack to this weird late night donut shop and buy a donut and charge your phone for 15 minutes. and only then do u call the number and get your car back and its all over great workout! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a wild ride. My last punk rock show was more ska. And orchestral. We got to sit down for most of it. Still a really amazing show and a great community in the audience. The one before that we stayed in the back. Same band. The crowd as rowdy but i was already to old to jump in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made a 7 hour drive to Vegas last weekend (and another 7 hour drive back) to see a concert. I could've instead made a 4 hour drive to L.A... but for some reason they thought booking the 2 hour and 45 minute set in L.A. in a standing room only environment would be a good idea. NOPE. Drove to Vegas so I could SIT THE FUCK DOWN. I don't have fucking legs of fucking steel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

discolé monade Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 my last concert was a white zombie/karen black/toad yes...quite a while ago. best work out ever was the mosh pit. some bruises, sore muscles. but ya know. also...a really good work out? riding a 'tube out of 'party cove' holding on for dear life...finally getting the wakes just right, and having a super fun time trying not to die.

I do kinda miss that feeling of being a part of a giant, writhing mass of people all joined into one organism enjoying the same music. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have bad feet and my gf has some partial paralysis that makes standing for long periods of time in that kind of environment very difficult.
