Step 1
When your first going to a rock/screamo concert you have at least know what your getting yourself into. youtube the bands that your going to see and watch what the crowds are usually like. and of course KNOW WHAT BAND YOU ARE SEEING. be on time :)
-
Step 2
what to bring: always bring money. you will get dehydrated so you will be getting water a lot. also there is always merch so you might want to do a little shopping while your there to last the memories. BRING A SHARPIE! you never know if you'll run into one of the band members. and be friendly when asking! cameras arnt always acceptable in venues but if it is bring it along! also bring a cellphone to call your mommy if you get hurt :)

Step 3
crowd: usually rock/screamo crowds are VERY aggressive. so start out on the side where the crowd is a little more mellow. the middle/front is usually where the brutalness and most dedicated fans are at. but once you feel the vibe don't be scared to join; some people are very nice...youll just get suffocated from the tight confindness of people
don't pick fights. they get nasty... mosh pits very often occur. don't be afraid to join in. the worst that can happen is get a few bruises. -
Step 4
dressing: when you dress for these types of concerts you want to dress as comfortable as possible. band tees are very recommended. jeans or shorts...whatever floats your style. COMFY SHOES!! never. never. NEVER wear flats or sandals. you WILL lose them. have pockets in your pants to hold your cellphone and money or camera. but beware, they might fly out if you have small pockets when pogoing (jumping up and down)don't. wear. sharp. jewelry. if you hit someone it will hurt yourself and them.
