i started going to diy hardcore and punk shows every weekend because I wasn't leaving the house and was so so so lonely. everyone is super friendly, though i find myself feeling alone at times. but, it's nice to be surrounded by people. being thrown around the mosh pit and flung into wild dances makes me feel like I'm apart of the inner working of some great beast. i see many of the same people every week, and we usually chat together and sometimes smoke reefer or get in the pit at the same time. it's quite comforting, as somepne who has many acquaintances yet little friends. music is something that anyone can get involved in, lots of people you wouldn't expect to be in a room together just dancing the night away.
