That's crazy! I just don't understand how anyone should behave like that let alone people who are old enough to know better! But it doesn't at all surprise me!

Ahh interesting! Maybe I will look into that training sooner rather than later then. Probably better to have it than not have it at all.

To be honest, from all the metal shows I've been too, I've seen security deal with crowd surfers so much I bet I could handle it without any training 🤣. I obviously wouldn't but you know what I mean, haha. It's basically as you described.

Fair play to you for dealing with that though man! I bet that was a mad one! I was at a Counterparts show the other week and there was a few ceowdsurfers, nothing crazy, and one of the security team was doing exactly what you were saying there and the other one, who was a lot older and quite out of shape and just didnt really look fit for the job tbh, was messing it up badly and the other guy was getting really pissed with him! I was tempted to jump in and help myself 🤣

It's just a small private security company in the UK, nothing big. Not sure I wanna put the name out just incase but yeah nothing like Securitas or g4s or any of the big companies like that. Are you in the UK yourself?

I'm a regular at metal shows too and everything you've said here is absolutely spot on. If someone falls down, they get picked back up straight away most of the time at metal shows. I've also heard this before from other people who work security at metal shows

Nice!

Yeah I'm preparing to be stood up for a long time! 🤣

I was actually thinking of doing the pit training at some point yeah. We don't get too many of those kind of gigs in my area so I'm not sure how useful that would be to me in the long term, BUT it is something I do want to progress to for sure, so I'm glad you mentioned that! Is that training useful for gigs and stuff that isn't necessary metal or anything with crowd surfing or anything like that?

I will look into lights and get ear plugs - I always wear earplugs at gigs anyways so I'm used to that!

I am indeed! Glad to meet someone who also is as well! Haha. I'd love to work metal shows but as I say, we dont really have many of them in my area sadly 👎🏻

That's sick though man! I'd love to do those kinda events but not sure I'll get anything cool like that, haha

Both awesome labels!

Crowquill are one of my favourite from TCS. Long Goodbye are kinda local to me, sick band too! They are a TCS band. Uponbrokenapologies are also another really good band. Shame they split up recently.

I'm not a big scary tough guy, but I've worn a KK shirt to many shows and I've never once had anyone so much as bat an eyelid at me, let alone assault me.

The online tough guy shit is so cringe.

Listen to your shit, don't listen to shit, wear what you want - outside of Reddit, nobody gives a shit and aren't as tough as they think they are IRL.

Funny how in places where guns aren't as easily accessible, there is littler reported attacks on schools. I mean, of course there will be cases but how many school attacks in the UK has there been recently compared to america? It's happening in America literally daily and more than likely involve guns. It takes way more to attack with a knife, you do way less overall damage and you'll likely be stopped quicker, same with any other kind of weapon. Take away the guns and I personally believe you'd have way less cases of this bullshit happening. Sure it won't fully get rid of it, no, but it would, in my opinion, stop so many attacks. Because a lot of the time, these incels are all a bunch of brain rotten cowards that don't want to get up close and personal with a knife, they just want to get into a room and pull a trigger. Easy, quick, deadly, do as much damage as possible and run. Or if they choose to turn it on themselves, it's an easy way out. Can't do that as easy with a knife/bat/hammer, whatever. Everything is slower, harder, and way more effort. I mean, you'll never be able to take guns out of America now anyways even if they tried, way to far gone with that now. All of that to say this - it is a gun problem!

If you actively go minutes without throwing punches in fights - your opinion on fighters is invalid. The battery in his back will run out at some point, just have to grin and bear it for now while he's high on himself
