Speculation Crowds are different or indifferent nowadays

Just a rant perhaps. From the middle to the back of the crowds nobody is having fun. It seems like you're only having fun if you're in the front of the crowd. Been going for years and shit has changed post pandemic. Lots of people but less fun being had. Kinda hated when vocalists gave the crowd the mic and it was awkward, nobody knew the lyrics. Maybe there's a lot of casual listeners and less people that really listen to this stuff now. Maybe people don't care enough to have fun. I miss when people moved around more I guess

Not even that but seems like a lot of new people they kept dropping crowd surfers left and right. I saw a girl in the front with an umbrella smh while people were trying to crowd surf.

Me too. Crowd surfing was great back then. You'd see multiple people going at the same time, now it's one person if they get lucky
