Do any of you have a tough time after going to a Gig?

I had a bit of a depression after the concert in Hamburg. It was my first Green Day concert ever and the first time I saw the boys standing in front of me, so the moment when they came on stage was when I realized that those guys that I love so much are real. Hamburg was the best night of my life, it was just totally awesome. So like... uhm for 12 hours, everything I felt was pure happiness, but when that was over, I started to "miss" Green Day and I knew that I probably wouldn't see them again for at least a year after the concert in Dortmund and that's what depressed me. Plus, I was so tired and exhausted the day after the concert, I wasn't in a good mood anyway. But luckily, this depression only lasted for one or two days.

After the concert in Dortmund, it was different. I felt like it was okay now, I saw them twice and I knew it was over and I was okay with it. But instead of missing the band, this time I missed all the wonderful people I met there, but as before, it only lasted for one day... I mean, I still miss them, but it's not that bad anymore.

I really hate this feeling.

I went to the Cologne show and -wow- it was the best fucking day of my life.

Billie took my sunglasses.Billie took my devil-thingy.I was pulled on stage to play Jesus of Suburbia.I did a stage dive.

I was the happiest person that ever lived.

The day after the concert I was still so thrilled.Everytime I thought of what happened the night before, I started trembling , my heart beat faster and I almost cried of happiness.

The day after that was just horrible.

I did mistakes on stage. I looked horrible on stage.100 people told me I was great- but there were 2 that told I was awful.Did Billie think I was arrogant and unfriendly , because I asked him to shorten the guitar strap?

I felt like this for more than a week and it was maybe the hardest time in my life.

Now I feel better, but my memories are getting worse.

I can't remember how it was to be on stage, how it was when billie asked me if I wanted to play the song.

And they probably won't come back to Germany next year.

I'll see them again in 5,6 or 7 years.

everything will change and I'm afraid of that.

Mino, don't be so pessimistic. I still believe they'll come back in 2010/2011.

Maybe they'll do a few festivals , but I'm not allowed to go to festivals.

But if they come back to Uk, I'll be there.

No matter what.

Fuck the money , Fuck my mum (well better not) , Fuck school.

I'll be there.

Yeah... but they said they'll do the whole tour again, so they better do what they promised. I won't go to festivals either.

I was very depressed after the last show I went to. I saw them on october 8th and 12th. I had waited for those days in a long time. every day I was thinking and dreaming of it. it was like I had a reason to live, and then both of the concert were suddenly over. I had awonderful time, but now I it feels like I won't see them for a long time and it feels like evrything I wanted is gone. It's a horrible feeling. and especially because I know that I should be happy for what I have experienced. I'm better now, but it's still difficult for me to listen to green day without being sad.

I'm usually a bit down but this after Green Day I think I'm going to be distraught.

I have waited 8 years to see them. I've spent 4 years on this message board listening to all the stories of people meeting and seeing them, absoloutely wishing it was me. And right now is a bit of a hard time for me, my boyfriend and I split up, my housemates moving out and I don't know what I'm going to do and it is only Green Day right now that is picking me up at the moment. Every day and night I'm thinking of going to see them and its only 9 days away. A band I've admired for 8 years I'm actually seeing and no lie, I will be coming on this board in tears at the fact it is over after it.

I just think you should all be prepared for a morbid Caz lol.

And now I've just realised after its all over I probably won't see them for another few years. Oh fuck :(

Ive never had that happen...then again ive seen over 30 different concerts...Its usually the night BEFORE i cant handle :lol:

I've not had it to the extreme level that some people have, but I sorta know what you mean. I often get the feeling that I really wish I could go back in time to the show and re-live the whole experience. I had it after the Milton Keynes show in '05. I think for about 2 months I was wishing I could go back. These days though I just look back on it as a great experience and just get on with my life and look forward to the next show. I go to a lot of gigs nowdays so theres always something around the corner.

Biggest problem I have after concerts is my feet feeling like they are going to fall off :sleep:

I'm not 'depressed', just.. saddened, i'd love to re live mondays gig :D

Nope i'm usually buzzing from a gig for days afterwards! Only thing I can't do is listen to an album by that artist for weeks afterwards as its missing something! haha!

Posted

I'm having a mixture of post gig depression and excitement right now.. I saw Green Day 2 days in a row last week and now I really miss them :( but I can't stop listening to them, and whenever I think or talk about the gig I get this smile on my face and this fuzzy happy feeling inside :wub:

Dont think like that! They'll be back. Remember, they do 2 tours of most countries! :woot:

God, I hope that´s true. I´m going to see GD for the first time live in November and I just KNOW one concert isn´t enough...I don´t get post concert depression from "average" concerts, but knowing GD doesn´t fall into that category, I´m pretty sure I´m gonna be sad afterwards. However, another tour would make it so much better! I´d be the first person to buy tickets XD

Hmmm, i don't think, i have a depression, but I feel changes.Not in the world around, but in me.Cause that was definately the best day of my life!

Monday night was the first time I had ever seen them, I've never actually experienced anything like this before. Afterwards I was on such a high I couldn't get to sleep, I was on IC and talking to as many people as I could about the gig. I still can't stop talking about it to be honest. Now it does actually feel quite different. I'm gutted coz I never wanted it to end obviously and it was the best thing I've ever experienced.

Hey don't worry about the pics and vids, I bet if you have a look around on youtube and in the thread for your show in the tour section here on GDC you'll find plenty :wink:. Your memories of the show are better than any photo could be anyway, might sound corny but it's true!

I'm kinda worried that I'm going to be all sad after the gig. I've used it as something to really look forward to the past few months and get me through some crap that's being going on iwht my bf and his family. But still, I'm mega-excited right now! Can't wait :D

I find it ok...get on with life as normal really. I'm always busy and I have a lot of work to do, so I have to just get on with my studies.

I always feel so exhausted from queing all day though, and i hate not being able to go to the toilet for over 12 hours lol.
