Going to a concert alone

[Amy214]

I bought a ticket for a concert this morning and i am going myself, my parents are watching my daughter because she will be too young to take with me, will i look weird going by myself? my friends are always too busy with work and i really wanted to go so i bought a ticket now im getting nervous it isnt until june the 4th, its a vip ticket so i get to watch the last 20 mins of practise and i get to meet them but im scared incase they think im weird im not too worried about when it starts because then it will be fine and everyone will be watching

I've been to gigs on my own a few times, I just prop up the bar and watch the band. It's not really a social activity, is it? Much like the cinema. Every gig I've been to has had a group of people standing at the back enjoying the music.

That's sounds great. You don't have to worry about anyone but yourself.

I just thought i cant keep relying on friends to come with me so why not, but i am nervous i have alway felt weird going to the cinema with other people its not like you can talk to them haha

I've been going to shows and concerts by myself for years and no doubt will do it again in the future. I want to see it, and I'm ok with my own company. I've often ended up chatting to random strangers at intermission and even been invited out to dinner with a group afterwards.

I'd do it. I have done similar. Sounds brilliant and not at all weird. Hope you enjoy

Thanks everyone
