'Don't Leave Your Hair Untamed,' And 6 Other Concerts Dont's

It's common courtesy.

'Don't Leave Your Hair Untamed,' And 6 Other Concerts Dont's
Cara LeighAnn Anderson

I have been to a fair share of concerts. In the last year, I have been to seven and counting. The same things annoyed me at all of these shows. I am sure my fellow concert-goers can attest to these seven concert dont's.

1. Don't Leave Your Hair Untamed

Nothing is worse than having someone else's hair on you. It is almost even more irritating to have someone hit you in the face with their hair. If you've got rather long hair, it is going to get stuck to the people around you especially if your'e whipping it around. That is just gross. Put it in a bun or something.

2. Don't Use Your Flash

Not only is it rude to the performer, it is probably ticking everyone around you off, as well. It in people's eyes and its messing up other people's pictures... which leads me to number three...

3. Don't Record The Entire Show

We get it, you want some pictures and maybe you want a few videos. But when you never put your phone down, it becomes a problem.

4. Don't Block Other People's View

Some of us are not as blessed when it comes to height. So to all of the folks 5'8 and above, some of us are barely tall enough to see over the barricade, much less you. Be courteous.

5. Don't Yell Out Song Requests

The setlist is almost always predetermined. Yelling out songs you want to hear probably isn't going to make a difference.

6. Don't Complain About Space


No one in the crowd has any personal space. You all in the same boat. If you want space, go to the back of the crowd. With that being said, don't be the person to purposely smother people in hopes of getting two inches closer to the stage.

7. Don't Chant

This is the most annoying thing to me, personally. There is a schedule they are running on. The band will not come out just because the crowd is chanting their name. In addition, they plan an encore. They are going to come back out on stage to do their most popular songs whether you scream at the top of your lungs or not.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

Brooke Davis

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:

We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.

We all have a person, and when that person makes some new friends, we tend to forget all the great things that can come out of it. Never forget how special they are to you and why you are best friends.
