The hung-up-on-ex: Every song reminds them of their breakup, and they are often the ones spotted in a corner, painfully narrating the tale of their doomed love to friends for the thousandth time.
The one too heavy on metal: They are the ones who stand out. With their ripped jeans, heavy bling, denim/leather jackets and hair in need of urgent shampooing, everything about their appearance spells (and smells) metal.
The critic: They are probably forced to come to the concert by an annoying friend and will go around criticising everything they see, be it the food stalls, the speakers, the artistes or the crowded venue.
The alcoholic: They are the ones who come just to booze and don’t know or care who the artiste is or what song they are playing.
The PDA couple: These are usually the couples who think they are the best and desperately need to prove it to those around them by being as mushy (and gross!) with their PDA as possible. Sometimes, two couples might get competitive and lift their girlfriends up, blocking your view.
The wannabe: He will be the overly enthusiastic one giving his expert opinion in a conversation about a band’s latest album that he has never heard about.
The one-song-know-it-all: They are the self-proclaimed fans who have just listened to one song by the band and will fail to sing along to any of the other numbers as they wait desperately for the only one they know.
The Snapchat junkie: They have the compulsive need to clutter up everyone’s feed by uploading 30 stories of the concert in an hour. Open their stories cautiously, for you may be subjected to a clip of them with horrendous expressions, singing with the crowd.
The freeloader: From tickets to food, they have promised to pay you back for everything very soon. They might even ask for a bite from your food or a swig from your drink at the concert.
The creep: You will be able to hear them make your soul throw up with their comments. The occasional sound of a slap will keep you informed of their whereabouts.
The curfew freak: This is the one who will constantly be checking Uber rates and irritate everyone by freaking out as the clock nears nine.
The screamer: These are the ones who will amaze you with their ability to scream for two hours at a stretch. Their decibel level is always in danger of exceeding the ultrasonic level.
The this-is-our-jam gang: This annoying group will start jumping when “their” song starts playing, nudging others out of the way.
The let’s-sit-down-and-never-get-up gang: They are the ones who have mistaken the venue for a college canteen, sitting down in the middle of the ground and having an adda session of their own.
The heavy lifter: This one will want you to know that he has a gym membership, wearing a shirt with buttons struggling to break free, which will ultimately come off sometime during the concert.
