Attending a concert alone?

Contemplating going to a concert myself for a band that I discovered last year. It would be a train ride away and I might need to stay overnight.

They're a very different band and I've only been to pop concerts before but nobody I know would be interested in going. I'm hoping if I go that I don't stick out like a sore thumb, I'm not hugely girly but not alternative looking either so am a bit worried that I'll look out of place. Not that everyone will be watching me but I feel a bit self conscious especially on my own.

Should I go for it? I've travelled myself a lot but don't go out socialising much these days and am usually at home at night. But last year I was thinking oh I wish they'd come here and now they are.

@FailBetter I also enjoy Sigor Ros! Incredible music. Makes me want to visit Iceland too. Hadn't heard of the other band you mentioned.

Yeah go for it! I go to a lot of alternative gigs and don't look at all alternative nowadays and I find a lot of people are just in jeans and t-shirts. Have fun!

Go for it! I've done this a couple of times and loved it.

Well done! I hope you have a blast.
The hour-long Heilung set, complete with opening and closing ceremonies(!), that was performed at Glastonbury last weekend is now on iplayer, if you want to see the kind of performance you'll get. Enjoy!
