I never really mind going to shows by myself, just like going to the movies alone. Usually my friends rely on me to get their tickets so it's actually nice to save a little money and still enjoy the show.

Mutemath & As Tall As Lions tomorrow night.

Pretty excited.

Yeah when you go to a show alone you can focus 100% on the music, rather than worrying if the person that' with you is enjoying it, wondering how they're hearing songs versus how you're hearing them, having to say "WHAT?!" a few times when they try to tell you something, etc.

I've never gone to a movie alone though. But I would...if movies didn't cost so damn much these days. Netflix for me thank you very much.

Both very good points. They are one of my favorite bands so it will be nice to just get up front, surround myself, and not have to think about anything else.

I go to movies alone pretty often and it's fine because it's not like I chit-chat with people during the movie anyway. Music is a little different for me though because it's more of a social experience. I've been to a couple shows alone and it's fine I guess but with no one to talk to in between sets I usually end up drinking a lot more and sometimes it effects my enjoyment of the band, as was the case when I went to see the Swingin' Utters by myself earlier this year.
