Discuss your favorite crazy concert experience.....
I saw the Afghan Whigs back in I guess 1990. There was this guy that attempted to stage dive and he stumbled. His leg got caught in between a space between the stage and the floor area. A bone in his leg literally popped out of his leg, it was brutal, the show stopped but the guy hopped out of the venue and nobody ever saw him again.

1. I got a fat lip at a Social Distortion show last month.
I was so proud of it, I didn't touch it with anything, and four or five days later it got so badly infected I literally couldn't even use a straw without wincing in pain. My doctor said, "that's just an aphthous ulcer", don't touch it and it will go away. What a stupid doctor.

3. That is funny.....although sorry for your pain.
How was the show, I have loved social distortion since the "Mommy's little monster" era.

I wrote about it in a thread here, but I can't seem to figure out how the archives work. Any ideas? I usually bookmark the good ones so I don't have to deal with this problem.

4. I don;t think it would classified as crazy but it was cool and strange
at the same time. I came home from on leave from the Army and friends of mine were heading up to Woodstock 94 (you know the one without the raping, looting or burning)they had a spare ticket so I went with them. I was decided that I was going to go see Bob Dylan, the crowd was great because every musical clique you could think of was there and ejoying Bob. Deadheads, headbangers, punkers, Rastas, everyone was hanging out and having a great time. Especially when he started singing "Everyone Must Get Stoned." Though some people were trying to creat a mosh pit while listening to Dylan. That was pretty damn bizarre.

5. This is a Good One (I Think)
This past Summer I went to my first concert in Noblesville Indiana. It was linkin Park, Korn and Snoop Dogg. It was a hot August day and I was there with my friends. My one friends dad was there too but we didnt hang out with him. Anyways there was all these people sitting on the lawn where our seats happened to be just openly smoking pot everywhere. I mean security was just watching them do it, it was crazy.

I had done it a couple times before so this time as me and my friends were sittin there a joint just came out of nowhere and somebody said hit it. So i got really stoned. then I did it a couple more times later that night still at the concert, then one time we didnt know my friends dad just happended to walk by us when we were doing it. Well he was not a drug user of any kind and a prtty decent guy, but luckily he didnt say anything to either of my parents.
But they ended up finding out the next week when My dad and I were taking my friend home and he was drunk and ended up blurting out in front of my dad and everything, hey Corey,"My dad isnt mad he caught us smoking pot at the concert.

I was thinking OMG, lets just say it was a long silent car ride back home.

6. New York Dolls concert, summer of 1974, Washington, DC
The concert itself was great; it was what happened afterwards.

We were on our way back home to Northern Virginia. Some friends of a friend who went with us got a little too drunk and starting mooning motorists on the Wilson Bridge. Truly a night to remember.

Wonder whatever happened to those clowns, LOL?
