I haven’t been to that many, but I’ve been to a few smaller concerts in the last couple years, and they were great experiences with the crowd. And these are heavy metal shows. Many years ago, someone spilled beer on me at one of those shows, and while I was annoyed, I was also glad that they hadn’t spilled it on the cast that was on my left arm. They apologized.

I saw a woman carrying a baby (with ear protection for the baby) at the most recent concert I saw. No idea if she was a huge fan of one of the bands or possibly the spouse of one of the band members.
