Dude just fucking with boob grab,lol 8)
Still Northcal you should stop with the stupid topics.
My concert tradition used to be a joint in the crowd, but smoking is forbidden in indoor locations and sometimes people threaten to get security. Others ask if they can have a few puffs which is also annoying, so I dropped that habit and now I just drink a few beers.
Well, I've got a few...
*Dress like a groupie girl, usually in my 'traditional' shorts or mini skirt, Adidas and KNY T-shirt, along with my spiked collar and some flashy make-up. I always try to be the 'big' trophy girl, really much in style with the members. ;)
*Always stand at the right side of the bars. This has nothing to do with politics, quite the contrary, but more with my thing for bass players. Oh well, you guys know what birds of a feather do, haha.
*Wait for the band, both before and after the show. I'm always trying to have some chit-chat with them, listen to their stories and tell them mine. I'm becoming a regular, even though I'm still a puppy among the community.
*Piss off the roadies. Don't ask me why, but they don't seem to like me, no matter how friendly and kind I am to them. I think they're just jealous because I don't need to do stuff with them to get to the band. ;D
*Almost getting into deep shit. Almost becoming the centre of a violent mosh pit, almost having Chino to stagedive on me, almost freezing to death and being saved by one of the members, almost falling over... my nickname is meant to be ironic.
*Return the favor. This one might sound a little 'holier than thou', but I don't mean to. I always try to do something back for the band, like hug them and give them gifts. They have given me so much already and being a fan (in general) is a lifestyle for me, so I feel like I should be supportive and loving to them, too. The fact that I'm just another stranger and not any different from any other fan has never held me back to make an attempt to be special to the band anyway.
Have any of u guys seen a fight at the deftones concert? I seen a few girl fights ,ass & titties everywhere,lol

These are the people I probably hate most at Deftones shows.

Some of you wonder why there is so little activity on SL and yet you jump on this new user like a pack of hyenas on prey. At least she contributed to the subject.

i'd rather read nothing than embarassing stuff like that

I'm not a troll, but I'm sorry if I came across that way. Just trying to be nice, you know. And my dressing ritual is for attention, yes, but I don't take myself so serious at gigs and neither should you. I'm here to have fun, not to be trolling anyone. The reason why I'm here, is the reason why we all are here: because I'm a Deftones fan and I want to talk to others who are into the same band. Fandom can be celebrated in many ways, guys, for each there's a suitable and comfortable way out there. Mine way seem a little flashy and eccentric, but that's just the way it feels good to me.
And if dressing my way makes me an attention whore in your eyes, then what's the point of convincing you I'm not? I'm not responsible for your opinions, only for the messages I post. I don't need to explain why I do the things I do, as long as I'm not bothering anyone and as long as I'm having fun, right? I'm only here to make friends, guys, not to troll anyone. And I think the necklace is funny indeed; I could wear it for the sake of self-mockery, haha, like, ironically. ;) Some are happy being a grey mouse and some feel better being a peacock, that's just the way it is.
No worries I think it's just alot of people here including me like this forum because even though it's pretty dead it focuses on the music itself rather than the facebook groups that seem to have more selfies and photos of kids than actual deftones discussion and when it is about deftones it tends to be the more superficial things like posting photos of Chino and calling him sexy not really talking about composition or production aspects,which also fine.
@DeftonesNZ: Thanks, I now understand what's going on. I'm not a regular on forums at all, so I've been a bit awkward around here, haha. But I do get your point. Each fan is different, but there are mainly two types: those who focus on the music and those who focus on the artists. Like you said, most of the people around here belong to the first group, but Im definitely one from the second. I'm not a troll, I just enjoy different aspects of fandom in a rather remarkable way, I suppose. But I'm used to people being judgemental, that just goes with making choices that don't fit the socially acceptable picture. C'est la vie.
I've made fandom into my lifestyle, because I want to become a fanbase manager. I can understand both types of fans, but what I want, is to improve and expand the experience by using modern inventions, like social media and technology. This would be great for type 2 fans, but I guess type 1 will always be there for the music and the music only. You just helped me with my research and responded in a very grown-up and polite way, which I very much appriciate. :) A lot of haters just repeat a lot of stuff that's been said to me so many times, ugh... Haters gonna hate, but don't bore the 'troll'. ;)
