I'm planning on going to an upcoming metal concert in October, I not sure which one to go to, but I'm quite nervous. This is going to be my first time going to one and it's going to be intense. I'm probably the only black dude that's going to a death metal show. Do you guys think Im going to get my ass kicked in the pit because of my skin color? and how do you feel about a black dude going to a metal show.

You might be the only black dude, but I wouldn't be surprised if you weren't. No one will care if you are or not.

Nobody would kick your ass at a show, unless you wore an *Nsync shirt or something :ch41n:

Color doesnt matter, As long as you are supporting the bands and getting into the music and share common intrest with the people around you, you will be accepted as you would any other place. I dont see any reason why people would reject you for your color, Metal shows arent like going to a fifty cent concert or something where if you not black you get shot 80 times in the ass.

Umm...::cough:: skinheads at shows ::cough::

Probably the majority of people at 50 cent concerts are white kids.

Be fucking honest. Skinheads go to shows. I would love to drive them away from these shows with a host of pissed off metalheads and aluminum bats, but...well, I've noticed people aren't likely to side with you on things like that. Great ideas, vigilante justice...eh.

skinheads do go to shows, but they are normally pretty picky on what shows they go to...what kind of metal are you looking for?

Did Chris Masochist say he was in a metal band was busting his ass and making a living at playing his music? Here he is saying he's never been to a metal show? On other posts he blasts Atlanta saying all the bands sound the same and then says we should support ATL bands? WTF? Dude make up your mind you sound like an idiot! I assume he is testing us , with his BLACKNESS , his LIES , and his lack of respect for the ATL Scene. I think this guy should be banned off the forums for his stupidity. But then again that ain't my call.

jesus, have none of you ever seen a black guy at a show before? I black guys at shows all the time. Nothing has ever happened to any of them, well im sure it has before but it shouldnt even be an issue.

But you mostly go to hardcore shows, Neil. :P

I've seen a few altercations with blacks and skinheads at shows, but I'd say if you stay out of the pit and away from them you should be ok.

Unless you pull a Bruce Willis and hold up a sign that says "I HATE SKINHEADS," and stay out of the pit, you should be okay
