10 Types Of Fan Every Concert-Goer Knows (And Hates)

3. Over-Enthusiastic Hand-Banger

Everyone does a little bit of head-banging. Whether it's at the gig itself, or in the privacy of your own home, safe in the knowledge that no one but the cat will ever know of your shame. A concert is most definitely the time and place for head-banging, but what becomes annoying is that guy who gets too far into the moment. We all know him, he's the one who turns up to any gig wearing a Megadeth t-shirt, has enormous wrist bands and a beard of debatable quality. He'll stand within close proximity of people like yourself, those who will be irritated most by his actions, but are too frozen with socially awkward outrage to actually ask him to stop. Upon the slightest provocation, the head-banger will let loose with the dance of his people: flailing his ridiculously long hair wildly, whipping all within a two metre radius to the point of severe tutting and eye-rolling. Whilst the hair is sort of annoying, what really sets us on edge here is the fact that at any second, you could be headbutting into a musically accompanied oblivion by Mosh and Thrasher up there. And what's worse is they probably won't even have noticed.
