I had the strangest experience hands down at this concert. I was 22 years old and weighed around 140 lbs wet. This was a sold out show and it was packed really really packed. This was the end of this tour for the band and they did three sold out shows for the city they made it in. It was a sea of people from the stage to the back wall in general admission. Me and my friend Troy were up front and started crowd surfing. I was up for a long time when all of the sudden I fell to the floor flat on my side. Well the concert was loud really loud. I was about 30% the way into the crowd and around 20 feet from the security in front of the stage. So when I fell as I was heading to the floor the crowd just closed like I was never there. Now laying on my side on the floor I noticed I could not hear the concert anymore. Not even bump from the bass. I pondered how I was going to get up as the pressure from the people standing was too much for me to stand up. It crossed my mind that I might be there till everyone leaves and if this is the case what are my chances of not being hurt or killed by trampling. I then thought again how strange it was not to hear the concert at all just shuffling feet. As I was back to pondering the silence again two sets of hands grabbed me and brought me to my feet. As I was heading to the surface the concert thunderous sound got louder and louder as I rose up out of the feet, legs and floor escaping the silent abyss till the concert was at full volume again. I often ponder that experience leading to a conversation I had one day with my friend Wendy. We were talking concerts and I told her that story. Now she goes to a lot of concerts, she told me "No Way, I have to try it I have never heard that before." I told her to let me know how it goes. She did try it at a concert she knelt down to tie her shoe. Yes it was silent. Down on the floor if I was to say how it felt, it was an eerie calm yet loaded with uncertainty.
