      Black shirts, as well, so I’m going to assume metalheads at least partially. I bet they’re nice as pie and fun to talk to.

      It is a tall person’s civic duty to assist the vertically challenged when requested (I’ve learned not to assume that a short person needs my help).

        As a tall person… If someone kindly asks me if we can swap places, because they can’t see from behind me, I will gladly swap with them. But don’t expect me to do it for you. Also, if your being a piece of shit about it, you can get fucked.

        that would mean constantly checking behind him and missing the show. I’m with the other commentor. the onus is on the short person to get in front of him. if he tries to stop them then he might be at fault. that said, it’s also not fair to expect someone to stand at the back just because they’re tall.

    I went to several concerts in my youth. Collective Soul had a remarkable number of very tall people, all blocking everyone’s view. I really wondered what it was about that band that brought them all together.

    I’m pretty tall as well and used to get self concious about being up the front, but end of the day, i paid for the same ticket as everyone else and a band without a mosh would be insanely boring. Also if we all looked the same, we’d get typed of looking at each other
