Someone inflating a balloon and then the crowd batting it around above their heads.
Bass too loud, can’t hear the vocals.

One of the things I like about Edinburgh is that gigs are pretty much all done by 10pm, or 10:30 at the latest.
But that means they all start at 7pm. So this is very real.

This plus working out if opening time even relates to the timing of the bands anyway. Shall I get there at doors open at 7 to see the first band at 7:30, or will I be standing around until 9?

turning up then realising you’ve forgotten your gig kit

Going to a gig on your own, needing the toilet and then feeling horrendously torn between pushing back to your space that’s inevitably been taken or just accepting your fate and having a shit view at the back

Venue specific but having to decide between a 2 pinter and accepting it will soon enough turn warm and flat, or choosing 1 pint and having to go back and queue all over again

Properly hate it when there are either too many or not enough people at a gig.
