Today, I went to see my favorite band. It was all amazing and great until I decided to go crowd surfing. I was maybe too heavy because people jumped away instead of catching me. I fell right on my tailbone. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went to a local concert. The singer from my favorite band stage-dived and I got to catch him. Unfortunately I was the only one to catch him. The next thing I know I'm pinned between him and the concrete floor as he finishes whatever part of the song he was on. He was fine, I hit my head. FML
Today, I was performing for a fairly large crowd with my band. I decided it would look cool to stand on one of the speakers and sing from there. It did look pretty cool for a bit until I tried to step off and fell face-first on the floor mid-song. FML
Today, my band played its first real gig. It was going well, and I, the vocalist, thought it would be a good idea to stage dive. I underestimated the distance between the stage and the crowd and crashed into the floor. FML
Today, my friends and I got front stage tickets to our favorite band. Being my first concert, we planned to start a small mosh pit in the back. I got knocked out by my best friend's elbow and was rushed to the hospital, during the first song. FML
Today, after saving up my money for weeks, I went to see my favorite artist in concert with my friends. Two songs in, I passed out, hit my head, and had to have someone drive me home. FML
Today, my favorite song came on and I started playing air guitar and headbanging to it. I didn't realize just how close I was to the chair next to me and went face first into the metal back. FML
Today, I went to a concert. One of my favorite bands was performing, and I'd had the ticket for seven months, with a great seat for the show. It was all going perfectly, that is until a guy twice my height sat in front of me. FML
Today, my band was playing its first serious gig. I was in the middle of a solo when a drunk guy tackled me, causing me to crash into the drums, breaking them and my guitar, hitting our drummer, knocking him out. FML
Today, I went to an indoor trampoline park. This would usually be fun, except that I got there, broke my ankle, and left in an ambulance, all before my friends even arrived. FML
Today, while playing a gig with my band, I tried pulling the classic "playing the guitar with one foot on the monitor" rock-star pose. However, I misjudged the height of the monitor, didn't notice the puddle of beer in front of it, slipped, and fell off the stage into the security guy. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Never crowd surf. You leave that to the actual rock stars on stage.

Pardon my ignorance, but I thought only band members crowd surfed.

Nope. A few concerts I've gone to it was both. A lot of times the band will even say "I WANNA SEE EVERYBODY ******* CROWD SURFING!!!" But that's just in my experience. It also depends on the popularity of the band, and the venue. Outdoor venues or more likely to allow people to crowd surf.

Yea a lot of the time the band encourages crowd surfing, and I've had my share of crowd surfing. It's really not that bad, I've never been groped or anything. It's fun!

No offense....is this a white thing that happens regularly? Or just a Rock thing? I've only seen crowd surfing on tv. Definitely not at any concerts I've been to.

I voted YDI as soon as I read, "I decided to go crowd surfing."

OP, you totally deserve it, and I know I personally would have let you hit the dirt before I touched you. In my experience the crowd surfers are always out of their minds on drugs or alcohol, or they're just so wrapped up in themselves that they want to be the center of attention. The ones taking drugs like ecstasy spend the entire time writhing and humping against all the hands, and it's absolutely disgusting. How about we all play nice at concerts and not force our bodies on others, hm? Leave crowd surfing to the band members, people the crowd might actually want to touch.

A sweaty person is a sweaty person and I would rather not touch them, band member or not. I never got why people make a huge deal out of touching a person just because they enjoy that person's work. Oh man, great spread sheets. I'm so in awe let me try to touch you as you go by

What boring concerts have you been going to lately?

Unless you needed medical attention and needed to surf your way out of the crowd you deserve it. Who wants to get kicked in the face by some idiot crowd surfing?
