Flatbush Zombies

Flatbush Zombies (Sevendaysvt)

I recently spent a weekend in Salt Lake City, Utah with a couple of my buddies.  The weekend started with a car ride to The Complex which is a building that they hold concerts in.  The featured band of the night was called Flatbush Zombies but they were accompanied with Skizzy Mars, McJenkins, and The Underachievers.  We showed up right in time and hopped in a line that was a bearable length.  After we got searched and gave them our tickets we were home free.  You could tell that not everyone was there yet because the venue wasn't packed at all.  We went straight into the crowd and started dancing around.

An Hour Later

After about an hour of dancing the venue was completely packed, there was mosh pits, people smoking, and performers jumping into the crowd.  Most of us got separated after a while and we were on our own.  The crowd was insane people were swaying back and forth, pushing each other, punching each other, and someone I knew even got knocked out because he fell in a mosh pit.  His head got trampled and he was taken out and most likely was driven to the hospital.  All of this happened before the main act came on!  Once we were all regrouped near the bathrooms we sat down and drank some water getting ready for the main performer.  You could tell that some people were going a little too hard because there was throw up all over the bathroom and people passed out in about every stall.

The more we waited the more people we knew and before we knew it we had twenty people we knew ready to go in together.  The crowd was getting a little sketch due to all of the mosh pits that were braking out and the amount of people getting hurt.  Not only that but I was shorter than the majority of the crowd so I couldn’t really see where I was in the venue.  Besides that I was still super stoked to go back in and have a good rest of my night!

Fifteen Minutes Later

Before we knew it we were in the middle of the action, the stage was right in front of us and the mosh pit right behind us.  After a couple of songs you could tell that the crowd was getting super rowdy.  The next song the artist told the crowd to form two mosh pits and the light shined where they wanted them to form.  The light was right on my friend and I, people started shoving and pushing and two second later a full out mosh was happening around us.  We both tried to get to the sides so we could still interact with the people in the mosh pit but not get the crap kicked out of us.  We then stayed there for the rest of the night and had a sweet time.  At the end of the night we were tired, stinky, and completely stoked we went!
