Which got the tamest? Based on all rock concert footage I've ever seen in my life of any band, the craziest must be in South America and the tamest in east Asia.

igorsr Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 For me South America,Italy,Spain and Potugal have a craziest crowd... Poland,Rusia,ex East Germany have a Tamest crowd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nellyy Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Well, I saw Guns in Finland 2017 and again in Estonia 2018. In Estonia I was in the Golden Circle right in the first row while in Finland I was quite far from the stage, so that may explain the difference. But anyway, in Finland the crowd was pretty calm, some people were even chatting with each other and I didn't see any crazy head banging or singing around me. In Estonia the atmosphere even before the concert was way better and the people were amazing, they were clearly having a good time. People around me knew the lyrics to most of the songs and so on. Maybe the fact that Guns were playing in Estonia for the first time ever had also something to do with it. As a Finn, I know what other nationalities think a stereotypical Finn is like and I have to say that the majority of the crowd in Hämeenlinna in 2017 was pretty much showing as little emotion as we are known for, so that was sort of lame compared to Estonia. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it is an Americanism, using ''pissed'' for ''angry''. Although it could be ''both'' when Rose wasn't showing up on time - spoken from experience.

brad_k Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Even though it was a festival, it was pretty nuts when Axl was drowned out on the chorus for Slither at Download 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
igorsr Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 So is it case with GNR or with other bands? I think GNR had audience 18-68 years so it is pretty normal,that older people like to enjoy on he show on a different way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axl_morris Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 (edited) Seen NITL GNR in 6 countries, multiple cities. All crowds are boring, because Golden Circle dictates that with the split barrier. Download England was a bit wild but that's a festival so I suspect most festivals were like that. On a whole I'd say America are the most boring, but I also felt GNR had more stardom in Europe and elsewhere. I think everyone knows South America are a pretty wild crowd.

Dcrazed212 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 I was at night 1 Vegas before coachella. The energy and the tension in the arena before they came on was insane. Great show besides the fact he was in a wheelchair. I was at East Rutherford NJ and Madison Square Garden. Crowd was more wild in NJ, but I prefer smaller venues like MSG. But the best concert I ever been to was the private show at the Apollo. Small room, high energy. Even all the celebrities were wildin out.

If you're going to stand at a concert, buy a standing ticket. For the concerts I went to, it is Madrid '17 that had the wildest crowd. Massive experience to witness it, especially on the classics.

Seriously? I bought seat tickets so I could sit through the opening band and my legs could not take standing in the GA section....but as soon as Guns went on you bet your ass I stood up for the whole 3 1/2 hour show in front of my chair. In SF everyone in the entire stadium did that....stood the whole time in front of their seats. Fuckin great crowd! San Antonio was a mix.. @igorsr you keep on standing and rocking out with your bad self! it's a rock concert ffs people! 2 1 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lio Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 We don't have the seats culture, I'd never pick seats for a gnr show. If I ever have to because for some reason I'm not able to stand up, I'd be so pissed if people got up So if I get a seat, I stay seated, because I'd feel rude standing up blocking someone else's view. But we have a different culture. Most people would have a standing ticket for a rock show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselDaisy Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Yet standing at rock concerts doesn't seem to have existed until a later date - some of the most iconic rock concerts captured by television cameras, including Woodstock, have consisted of audiences sitting.

Ericstacey Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 I've been to prob 10 GNR shows around the US and Canada, all seemed the same, good-some of the late shows took a lot out of people. Actually, I seen Izzy in 9or 92 with JuJu hounds in a club here in Cleveland, the crowd went nuts for him-I remember getting pushed against the stage, and Snakepit in 95 was a wild crowd-Velvet Revolver in 2004 in Detroit was a great crowd-it was even before the album came out, the band and crowd were on fire.
