Best part is when they all start complaining about getting squished when being in the front by the stage. Do they NOT expect to get a pushed and getting little sweaty defending their spot? I love when girls start hitting guys because they accidently step on their toes because there was a huge rush to the stage. I love music. It completes my mind, my body, and my soul. But the scene fucking sucks. I seriously want to throw up at 95% of the people I see at shows. I never want to hear the term pop-punk ever again. Punk used to be a form of rebellion. Now it's nothing more than a means to fit in. Oh, how times change. So next time you have your mommie's credit card in your hand, about to purchase tickets to a show on ticketmaster.com, make sure you're going for the right reasons. Not to yell that the lead singer is so hot. Not to get cred in your 5th grade homeroom. Go for the fucking music. If downloading shit will kill the scene, then sign me up.

But it is getting really depressing how these "children" are going for all the wrong reasons. No offense, but when you're 10, you really don't know what it's like to be cheated on by some girl who fucks a dude while she gets drunk at a party. I am not attacking you, nor do I hate the fact that you stated your opinion. But the scene isn't what it used to be. And sadly, I don't think it ever will.
