That's why I don't go to concerts, although I really wanted to see the Honda Civic Tour here in Rochester.
I'm going to Honda Civic on Friday!
If there's fixed seating, I think you'd be safe going to concerts, provided you stay in your seat after the show for a little while or leave early to avoid the crush of humanity exiting the theater.
My General Admission experiences are more positive than negative, of course, or else I wouldn't keep buying the tickets.
it was the first show that I felt cornered by the crowd
Yeah, sometimes you just get a crowd that doesn't work with or respect your personal boundaries. I'd rather deal with a circle pit developing next to me than people who won't stop feeling me up.
Aw -- George Takei is getting married, too! [link]
Go, Captain Sulu!
There might be a "...where no man has gone before" joke in there....
BTW, has Trek ever had a gay character? I vaguely remember gay rights activists complaining about the lack of gay characters when ST:TNG was on.
Google thinks I'm a spammer. I'm not amused.

OK, this made me a bit teary! They've been together for 21 years! It must mean so much to them, and to other non-celebrity couples that just thinking about it makes me so happy for them!
ETA Also I can't escape the Ashlee Simpsom/Pete Wentz wedding news-- it was the next story on the George Takei link. I have heard there is kerfuffling about the marriage on the internets with the fans, and I am trying to avoid it like a big avoidy thing.

Yeah -- my aunts were together for like 25 years before they got married in MA a few years back. It was GREAT.

The first was supposed to be Lt. Hawk from First Contact, but most of his scenes were cut so his orientation never got mentioned.
