^probably, it was back in 2005 or 2006, Jimmy Eat World opened.... I just remember it sounding like total shit, sounded like I was 30 miles away instead of 30 feet, they had no monitors/speakers onstage facing us, just the hanging stacks that were flying all the music over our heads.... I also remember going to grab a beer during Jimmy Eat World and as I was going up the steps, the music kept sounding better and better and then when I went back down as I got closer to the pit, it started sounding like shit again..... clearly I don't go down in the pit much, was just wondering if anyone had any recent experience.... I'd rather be able to hear the show from a little further away if being up close means it's gonna sound like crap....
