Today, it was the concert of my life. I had bought tickets the minute they went on sale, and I'd anxiously waited until the concert date. Thirty minutes before the show, my friend got so drunk that we weren't allowed in, and I was stuck babysitting her all night in the hotel, completely missing the show. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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, I finally got to attend the concert I have been anticipating for weeks. The band was great. The drunk guy sitting behind me yelling profanity and out of tune lyrics in my ear throughout the entire show, however, was not. FML
Today, I was going to meet my friend at a concert. I got there before her, so I went in to check out the local bands that were playing before the headliner. When she got there, I went just outside the building to give her a ticket. The security guards wouldn't let me back in. She went in anyway. FML
Today, my friend and I went to see our favorite band in concert. We walked at least a mile from our parking space and stood in line for two hours. My friend was supposed to have the tickets in her purse. She actually had, but she left her purse in the car. FML
Today, I remembered that the concert I bought tickets for over a month in advance was yesterday. FML
Today, I went to a concert for the first time in 5 years. I got all dressed up and even ended up hanging out with the band. The night came to a screeching halt when I got a migraine and ended up in the ER vomiting non-stop. I was in the hospital all night. FML
Today, I bought tickets for my friends and me to go to a concert. While I was in the shower, they ditched me and took my girlfriend. 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, I went to a Red Hot Chilli Peppers concert with my best friend. We've been looking forward to this for over six months. She spent the entire pre-drinks, pre-party, and concert glued to her phone. FML
Today, I drove six hours with a friend to see one of her favorite bands in concert. We were turned away at the door because the online site didn't say we had to be 21 to enter. I drove six hours back with nothing to show for it but an empty gas tank and useless tickets. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Bieber does NOT count as the "concert of your life".

I would have left them at the hotel. Sounds mean, but they brought it on themselves.

I say YDI. You should have known the consequences of your friend getting drunk and you will know that both of you won't be allowed to enter the concert. Unless you ditch her aside and went alone. If I pay so much money for the concert, I will not sacrifice it for my selfish friend who get drunk like nobody's business! The max timing for a concert may be 2hrs? Your friend won't even know if you ditch her after you've seen the concert. Maybe I'm not a patient person like you.

...so it's the OP's fault that her friend got drunk? I highly doubt that and I don't even think that OP expected her friend to super wasted. How was Op supposed to know that they wouldn't let her and her friend in? I say you Sir are a moron.

Yes, because OP knew her friend is going to be drunk at the concert.

That is not stated in the fml good sir. Unless I misread it which I doubt I did I see nothing about OP knowing her friend would be an idiot and get drunk.

Yeah, because the OP had control over her friend getting drunk, the idiot who got drunk before a show is. The "friend" is responsible for OP missing the show. "Friend" owes OP big time.

bad times but I would have called a taxi to take her home !!

If they're staying in a hotel, most likely "home" is not close. Have fun paying the taxi fare on that one.

who said anything about paying for the taxi... call taxi, drop to taxi and then slowly take big steps backwards and run like there is no tomorrow!!!
YoureJellyBro 5
I'm thinking if the taxi driver drove a long ways like that he would ask to see that you could pay for it. Also, I guarantee if you tried running after he drove that far, he would probably chance after you and/or call the police.

They make pretty alright sounds music. But you know better than to post a bands Name on FML. Ppl tend to be a bit...biased against some. Leave your likes out of FML. I learned that fast. Or leave it in your profile....idk what the hell in ranting on about but it seems very, very neccessary. So head my words as If they were the words of Tom cruise himaelf. Or he will spawn a giant, radioactive super zombie baby that's on fire and that's half German and half French. If you are sill reading this you have no life or you are extremely bored. I have no idea what's Going thru my mind right now, I need to get back to work, but I'm all caught up. Hmm. A Girl walked into the room with two borritos. Wonder if I can pay her for one? I'm not sure as looks rather hungry and grumpy. I took a shower this morning and ran late so no time to dress formally and my arms are like desert dry. Hmm. I think I'll get back to reading FMLs for those of you who have made it to the end of my rant, please go out and buy yourself a cookie, you deserve it. :) thank you and have a great day!
