Is 37 Too Old To Go To Concerts?
 

Seems like every concert I go to lately I'm the oldest person there. I go to bands that aren't directed towards a younger audience like Miley Cyrus or Selena Gomez. I go to indie rock shows. It seems super fucked up having people look at you like what are you doing here.

Why isn't it common for people in there 30s and above to go to shows? I'm not talking about Stevie Nicks or Aerosmith I'm talking about newer indie bands or new alt bands

Depends on where you live I suppose. Every state / province (and city too) seems to have their own subculture that dictates what age you can be to do what in terms of clubs, bars, concerts, festivals etc.

Because 37 is the new 60 Grandpa. :D

Just do it until you can't

lool man just do whatever you want fuck the rest! Life way to short to worry about stuff like that, ill be living life to the max until that basket calling me. :2 cents:

Do what the fuck you wanna do. Dont worry about others.

If wanna see a band, go see them. Your supporting the band by attending, and as the saying goes... 'You could get hit by a Bus tomorrow' & 'Lifes short enough already'

Fuck no!
Is 60+ too old to PERFOMR in concerts? {KISS, Aerosmith, Rolling Stones, McCartney...}
I don't fuckin' think so!
Rock, on man!

Why seek other's approval? You're a big boy right?

if your asking the question, the answer is yes, for you. might wanna check out bingo now cause you'd get laid in a heartbeat at your age.

:warning

It might also be that people older just don't have the "disposable" income anymore. I know I don't

yep you're still breathing do it! :GFYBand if you like heavy metal stay the fuck out of the mosh pit :1orglaugh:1orglaugh they will fucking kill u! :helpme :1orglaugh :(

If you live in Southern California, which I'm assuming from your nick you do, that is def not too old at all.

i'm 39 and I feel really old at concerts.... :Oh crap :Oh crap

I think age is not a problem. Madonna is still a superstar. The key is that you have music or art that people would like. We all have our favorite.

I don't feel old when I visiting concerts. I still have no idea who Miley Cyrus and Selena Gomez the fuck are. I even think they have never visited my country with concerts. The bands who's concerts I visit are Iron Maiden, Metallica (the most beloved band of my wife), Slayer, Helloween (was even drinking whiskey with their soundman right during the show))), Rage, Ozzy Osborne, Kipelov etc. So I definitely don't feel old there :)

Could not get tickets for an evening concert so went in the afternoon, the parents dropping their kids off were younger than us.

Ooh, Helloween! Very cool :thumbsup I used to play them on air years ago when I was a teenage deejay.

Miley Cyrus and Selena Gomez was that a joke?

If you look young, you can get away with it........ otherwise, you should wear more cardigans and don a moustache and maybe get into cigar and whisky evenings.

Otherwise, you'll show you're committed and don't give a fuck about your age, show up at the concert and be having lots of fun until you overhear some young kids say: "look at that old man, what's he doing here?"

"Oi! Old man, shouldn't you be at home washing yer underwears?" :1orglaugh

I thought these guys and their music are too old for teenagers (their music is so 80s) :)

if you have to ask .... 37 is too old to start looking for your balls

I really dont care about age when it comes to enjoying music,i have a friend who is just a few years younger then my father and he still wears rock outfit.

I'm older than you, and never think that way. Get over yourself, and I mean that in the nicest way possible. If someone at the concert cares more about "the old guy" than the band they came to see, then they're the asshole.

But I look 10 years younger than my actual age, so maybe that helps my attitude a little.

Of course not, but if you are the "grandpa" of the evening, there is nothing you can do about it.

This!!
Fuck them youngsters! Ignore them!

Yeah, that's the attitude: "I am having fucking fun, RROOAAH! Fuck you all!!" :)

This might have the side effect that you start keeping everybody as a "dickhead". And having fun is actually being pissed off.

Just dress like a hipster and say your old age is ironic

Totally agreed......... but its just fun to jibe someone who cares about it.:1orglaugh

Actually these days, ive found lot of older people going into younger space like in nightclubs etc and no-one gives a shit.

If you put a suit on, you can go everywhere, since everybody keeps you as a "stiff" anyways, and the context is very different from "grandpa having fun in aloha shirt", when everybody just thinks you have some sort of age crisis.

It's never too late to go to a good concert, if you can :)

You can always have as sexy nurse pushing your wheelchair.

BAM! For the win.

Fuck those morons for staring at you! Stare back and ask them if they need a 6 pack of whoop ass! Watch em run.

Most of us, by the time we've reached 37 have graduated to live theater, opera, and live orchestras. I can't remember the last time I went to a band concert or "event". I would rather not be around a bunch of teens and 20 somethings with booze in their veins, drugs affecting their minds, and a lot of misguided malice in their hearts.

Just go, have fun and enjoy :thumbsup

:2 cents::2 cents:

Heh. You are so right :winkwink:

25 is already too old ...

I was worried about being "too old" once, until I saw a father with his little 10 year old kid, dressed up in rocker jeans, leather etc, rocking out to Rob Zombie. I thought it was the coolest thing. Since then I could not give a fuck about age. Enjoy the show!

Go see The Rolling Stones.
They're in their 70's now so you should feel right at home. :D

I'm 55 and I used to go to concerts though these're punk and metal bands. I like to see Miley and Selena as women but their music aren't my favorite style

I am 48 and go all the time. Especially since my wife is 29. In fact you mentioned Selena Gomez, we went and she put on a great show. (everyone probably thought I was my wife's father but I don't give a fuck what people think)

:1orglaugh

nope, never :)

Who gives a fuck? Go and have fun.

I used to feel this way when I went to the Dave Matthews Band. I got over it. Don't care what anyone else thinks.

no, not at all... I'm 42 and some of my favorite bands are still much older than me and I'll still go

I don't go to as many shows as when I was younger but it's not due to age it's due to not having as much free time as before. I did get surrounded by a group of young hotties at a show once and one of them ended up buying me beers, guessing they didn't know my age as I can pass for maybe 7-10 years younger.

If ya like the band and got the time to go then fuck it go have fun. Youngsters fuck with ya just tell them ya got hairs on your sack older than them. :thumbsup

Never too old...

Go see Barry Manilow or Neil Diamond. Your question will become moot!

"I was a teenage deejay" - Great B-Movie title! :winkwink:

Good for you, you guys are a GREAT couple...and fuck what people think!
{I know the feeling, from when I do stuff with models staying w/ me for a few days & we go out...}
