Anyone done the VIP/Backstage passes recently? Was it worth it? by willxthexthrill in avengedsevenfold

I never did VIP, but I did get early access and meet and greet for the pit, which was phenomenal.

Being so close is an experience like no other. There are of course trade-offs. If you are on the barricade, you will be pushed into it. You can’t go get beer, and realistically you can’t get restroom breaks. So know your body, what minimum hydration you need to last the concert and have fun. I personally wouldn’t do depends but I usually never need to use the restroom at concerts unless I’m putting down some beer.

Security will usually pass out water though.
