I'm going to a concert at a large stadium by myself. I will be sitting in the lawn section.

The only thing I got going for me is I will be wearing a v-neck.

I've gone to a few concerts alone.
It's "weird," but you get over it.

this just means you have
reached a new level of enjoying music

like when someone goes to a good restaurant on their own
you think
"wow. that person is really good at enjoying food."

unfortunately I think you're going to see radiohead
which means it's more like
when someone goes to quizno's alone (quiznos was the closest place I could think of to radiohead)
and you don't even notice
because there isn't a big difference between going to quizno's alone and microwaving something alone at home
so it's still fine but no one is going to be
impressed

My first "alone movie" was Toy Story 1!

However, it wasn't intentional. I was 13, my friends had canceled, and I thought I just couldn't find them.

I was uncomfortable the whole time.

I don't remember enjoying anyone's smell nor anyone enjoying mine.

I'm taking the boat back, too. Which I'm guessing is around midnight.

Get there super early and I bet you can make a friend.

If you show up once there's a crowd, it will be harder.

I learned this trick when I went to the Ponyo premiere in NYC, circa whatever year that was.
I mean, I wasn't really a "trick" per se, given that I didn't do this on purpose... but this woman who was a producer on Venture Bros happened to be second in line (I was first) and we chatted a bit. Then we went out for drinks after the show.

It has a sad ending because I gave her my contact info for Flash stuff (she was working on some Dragons vs. Robots cross-platform property) and nothing ever panned out there, but it was certainly a good enough connection to make just for the day.

Then arrive first for the boat and talk to whoever becomes the next person who waits for the boat.

My friend goes to concerts by herself very often and she says that it is very easy to just talk to people, or they will talk to you first, and that it is actually nice going alone because she doesn't have to worry about whether or not her friends are having a good enough time, or if they want to leave early, or if she wants to leave early, she doesn't have to stay just for them, etc. It is apparently a liberating experience and now she doesn't necessarily like going to concerts WITH people. Although she is glad to meet up with people if they are also going to be there, I guess.

PS I sure click on "new post" instead of "reply" a lot.

The concert was alright but I think I would have enjoyed it more 5 years ago.

Also, Thom was all wiggly.

I also learned a bag of heroin in Camden is 5 dollars and a bag of heroin in Jersey City is 15 dollars.
