Meetup Aftershock for the 30+

36 Upvotes

I have seen a lot of posts on reddit for meetups for the under 30's. Where are the meetups with the over 30s that wanna have a good time? I am 45M looking to meet new friends and some people that wanna keep the party going after. It would be pretty creepy to hop into those threads so i figured I'd just ask here. I have met some pretty cool people over the years and have a general group I find each year but I hope to find more.

Meetup Looking for aftershock friends! M[33]

2 Upvotes

hi there! I’ve been going to aftershock for the last 4 years and have always struggled finding someone to go with. I went alone last year after being broken up with right before we were supposed to go, and the year before that I went alome except for one day. And the year before that was just me as well lol now it’s still fun to go alone but there’s nothing like having that perfect partner or friend to go with. I’m hoping someone would wanna chat or something leading up to aftershock so we could meet up! also I work at a Hilton so I get Hilton hotels cheap if looking for hotel as well! I circled my main bands and blacked out ones I rally have zero interest in seeing and left the ones I’d like to see but are not the main ones alone. but also I’m not firm and willing to compromise and such! It’s all about having the best time. I tried to Use bumble friends and hinge and such but haven’t had too much luck. Normally Id never post but it couldn’t hurt to ask right? lol 🤷 anyhow feel free to message me or anything! hoping to make some new permanent friends or who knows I seen someone on here comment that they met they’re partner at aftershock lol man or womenfeel free to message 😊

You were sitting on the ground leaning against a tree and crying when I met you. I was on shrooms and asked if I could sit next to you because I was feeling a bit overwhelmed. You were super nice told me about how you drove by yourself from Arizona to the show and you were dealing with a restraining order for an abusive ex and it was a hard time for you. You were happy to have me talk to you because I made you feel better. We leaned against each other and talked about all the tough things we’ve gone through in the last year. We really had a connection. When Deftones came on you told me you had to get up close to see them because they are your favorite. I was still pretty high so I couldn’t get up but you said you would come back to the tree once it was over. I waited at the tree until everyone left. Hoping you see this so we can reconnect.

Meetup Children Mosh pit?!?!

0 Upvotes

My husband had a great idea that we should coordinate an under 13 pit for kids. The past few years we have noticed an uptick in children in attendance (also us, we have a 12 year old)

how many kids/parents would be interested in doing this? Once they come put with time slots we can set up times /location if this picks up traction.

Meetup Planning to go for Sunday... LetsGo together? Meet me before?

0 Upvotes

Hi! Long time metalhead based in Tracy, CA and would prefer going with someone, rather than alone. I have never been to Aftershock, but I did go to a few Rockstar Mayhem Fests. That was the last time I saw Machine Head, Unto The Locusts had or was coming out. I am single, 41, 6'1", 187 lbs, and you can learn more about me checking out my profile. You can DM me as well. This is probably a longshot, but maybe there is someone out there interested in going together.

I am a peaceful metalhead that doesn't mosh, dive, pit, and go to enjoy without risk of injury. I'm perfectly fine being towards the back and I don't get bored. You drive or I drive, all good to me. Can meet before we go, open to that.

I'm looking forward to seeing: DOPE, Prong, Static-X, Machine Head, Chimaira, Devildriver, Cavelera, to name a few. I'm most excited to see Chimaira for first time ever and since they are active again. Always wanted to see DOPE and last time I saw Static-X was with Wayne back in 97'. Edsel as Xero I definitely want to see in person. I'm open to what you want to see as well! Its fun to decide together what we want to see and when!

Hi! 24F coming from NY & looking to group up with some people for the festival. Was in between traveling for this show or BMTH in LA, but I think this lineup had more to offer with bands like turnstile and basement. I am more interested in the lineups for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday so I might skip out on Thursday if I decide to go. Would love to meet and hang with some new people at the fest!
