I've never been to a concert, that seems to be one that people find bizarre
Just sad. My stepsons had never been to a concert and my kids thought that was crazy because I had brought them to shows since they were babies. Like, I can remember my first show but they can't. They all love music now.
I love music but I've just never been, if someone invited me sure I'd go, but other than that not sure why I would want to. At this point I'm probably getting too old for that crowd anyway
We would invite you, and never too old! I go by myself sometimes too, that is also fun. Can just listen to the music without having to socialize. Live music is just one of the best things ever.
As a show goes that loves to vibe towards the back, I encourage you to go.
Shows are great. You don't need to fight crowds, be up front, or dance if you don't want to. I prefer small shows, usually at bars. But even large stadium shows have an energy that's hard to describe.
Do you live in or near a big metropolitan area? If so you can probably fulfill this one within the month depending on how broad your musical tastes are. Some shows are prohibitively expensive, but a lot of smaller ones are remarkably affordable.
Edit: I myself enjoy a decently broad range of music. One of my favorite types of concerts, though, is when the local symphony puts on a movie and they play the soundtrack. These are really fun because you get to go to a symphony concert but if you get bored you can watch a movie!
