6 Tips For Attending a Death Grips Concert
Tuscon Weeklt

Concerts are some of the happiest places on earth. Watching your favorite artists perform for a room full of people who have the same love for music as you is every bit of exhilarating. Even with excitement in the air, some shows are a bit more intense and scary than others. I'm talking about the psychedelic group Death Grips. Here are some tips to keep in mind when attending a show of theirs, and how to let loose and not be frightened!

1. Bring a friend along

You'll feel a lot safer. Having someone to hold your hand when an intense mosh is brewing will help you feel more secure. Concert buds are always appreciated, no one likes going to shows alone!

2. Watch where you throw your hands/elbows/etc.

This is how people get broken noses and broken faces. The music is fast and upbeat and you're going to want to dance in a hardcore manner. But be considerate to those around you! You don't want to be the reason why someone looks like they got drop-kicked in the face.

3. Remember that it's just music

Depending on who you are, this show might just feel equivalent to a horror film that you can't escape. Remember that it's only music! These shows are meant to be lots of fun, not to bring harm upon you or inflict pain.

4. Dress appropriately

Hardcore shows are hot. As much as I approve of the saying "fashion before function", in this case it doesn't apply. The flannels and sweaters have got to go, and wear closed toed shoes!

5. Get familiar with mosh pit etiquette

A mosh pit may occur! Everyone is packed tightly together to the point you can't move.The further you are from the stage, the more intense the moshing is. The back tends to be the area where jumping and throwing occurs most. Choose your spot wisely!

6. Have a blast

Concerts are meant to be fun. Make the most of your experience! Death grips won't be just any ordinary show. Even if you have an insane amount of bruises on your body when the night ends, it will save for some good memories in the future.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
