it really does suck .. think how the band feels. i mean .. and even like that. it sucks in general to go out that way but at least like .. if you were in the pit and died or something i mean .. you know pits CAN be dangerous. but ... to have a fucking window break =\ death by stereo had to cancel their remaining shows which really sucks because they're pretty good .. but it's pretty much the only thing they can do ..

A few people fell through the floor correct? That's not a full story but I think that's pretty much what happened...

I was at a TBS show once and it was in this old theater and i could feel the floor moving up and down a few inches as the crowd jumped it scared the shit out of me.

i was at a agentfelix/tsl/yc/dynamite boy show long time ago and it was on the second floor of a dance place (like ballet dance) .. the floor was shaking hardcore and they made everyone sit down for the rest of the show cuz they were afraid the floor would cave in from all the jumping.. it was really weird, but the sitting made the show alot more intimate and amazing.

Most of the shows I go to are on the main level of a building. I think the closest Ive come to being hurt at a concert was when I saw Filter, I was in the front row, and the crowd was surging forward, pressing me against the bar. The security guard tried to pull me out, but I fought him off, cause there was gonna be NO WAY that i was pulled out of the front row of one of my favorite bands.

the story that happened is a death by stereo show in va somewhere .. at some frat-house like place (it might have been a frat house idk) they were playing their show. there was a mattress covering a window and it fell over and then people got spread out and fell through the window ... i heard like 6-8 kids fell and 1 died. =\

those stories are all scary...
the starting line, no use for a name and sum 41 came to my hometown which NO ONE comes to and my friend got kicked by a crowdsurfer and was knocked unconcious for about an hour...scary stuff but then she got to go back stage and hang out with everyone as kind of a present for missing the show

i just hate it when I can't breathe on the floor, i feel like a fish out of water in this sea of sweaty human bodies

also its scary when a lot of people fall on you and crush u to the ground
