Mine is people going crowd surfing in poor clothing choices, with boots and anything dangling being particular hates. If I had a quid for the number of times I've been kicked in the back of the head by someone wearing steel toecaps I'd not be rich but I could probably buy a couple of pints of terrible lager, which brings me onto...

Terrible booze sponsorship deals. I detest Tuborg. And carlsberg. Stop making them the only available beers.

  1. Bands playing smaller venues or opening acts will sometimes hang out at the merch table after (or even before) the show. I was able meet quite a few artists and get some stuff signed that way. They've always been genuinely appreciative when someone buys a CD or poster or an enamel pin in the most direct way possible. Kinda hit and miss though-- you may get the legendary guitarist, you may get the keyboardist hired for this leg of the tour only, you may get nobody.

Someone mentioned Automatic for the People by REM in the comments. One of my favorite albums, but I’ve never really enjoyed Star Me Kitten. Every other track is great, but that one breaks up my experience. At least it leads into one of the finest final three tracks on any album, Man on the Moon, Nightswimming, and Find the River.
