Going to a concert by your favorite band should be a great experience. An awesome one, even. But as always, it that crowd there are party poopers out to make the show a crap-fest for everyone out there. We're ticking off the 5 worst examples of douchebaggery at a show!

1. Inappropriate dressing

We're not talking Paris Hilton inappropriate, and that carries an entirely different risk, as a certain segment of the male concert-going populace would definitely be more than pleased at that inappropriate, but we're getting a bit ahead of ourselves. 

Example: Dude in leather jacket at Metallica show

Wow. Well, now that your urges towards cheap theatricality have been satisfied, what are you left with? More than likely, you're sweating your arse off while the 10000 other concert goers are jumping around you, creating a suffocating atmosphere that your jacket does not help at all. When heading for a concert or gig, especially if you know it's going to be packed, dress to see, not to be seen.

Uh dude? Middle of a crowd of sweating, slam-dancing/2-stepping/generally going crazy crowd isn't your girl's idea of a romantic date, especially if she's hiding in your arms. And quit cock-staring everyone in a 2 foot radius of you and your precious cargo, cause the truth is these kids have just as much right to enjoy the show in their own way as you do. Deal with it. Get to the back of the arena where no one's moshing. Or get there earlier and be right in front. Better yet, go get a room.

3. Inappropriate moshing

Something just doesn't seem right, does it? Yet it still does happen, frightening the timid crowd that would typify the Stereophonics fan, who quite usually would not be used to rowdy scene types crashing the show with flailing limbs. Moshing can be awesome, but for some shows, it's not quite right.

Uh-huh. Yeah, this one thing that's totally not cool at all that happens at concerts. Seriously, if this girl paid to see this concert, she deserves to watch it unmolested, something that doesn't get into the heads of these Cro-Magnons. Just because you can doesn't mean you should, and if it helps you keep your itchy fingers to yourself, imagine this girl has a 6-foot bruiser of a boyfriend whom your eyes are not registering at the moment.

Come on. People are miserable enough as it is in the dingy, sweaty venue, and you really just have to light up? Thanks douche, you just made everyone within breathing radius of yourself's day much, much worse.
