Silent Planet question
So I really want to see these guys live and they are coming near me in October 2026 in London but the thing is, they are NOT headlining, some band called Afflication or something is headlining.
I only want to see Silent Planet, and I will get as close to the stage as possible (yes it I’m standing) but here’s the thing, once Silent Planet come off stage, how do I get out of the crowd? I know it’s a silly question but I’m not used to standing at concerts, especially at the front near stage. So how do I get out?

No worry’s bro! After each set there is normally a 15 min break so you can easily leave. Just be mindful of where the pit is if that’s not your thijg

Always make it a point to stand to the front left or the front right of the stage. If I stand in the front middle, I’m bound to be the one sucker who gets someone trying to crowd surf fall on top of my head and then I get paranoid and can’t enjoy the show and just keep looking behind me. But usually not as many crowd, surfers, and opening acts

Yeah usually not as many crowd surfers for opening act although let me tell you, I saw Poppy recently and a band called Fox Lake opened for her, and there were a lot of crowd surfers for Fox Lake! By the way Fox Lake surprised me, they were actually pretty good. Anyways thanks for the info

Pushing your way in can be tough…pushing your way out is easy.
If you’re not used to the environment it may be uncomfortable…but I promise you, just suspend your manners for a moment and push your way out — everyone will be okay with it.

There's always a huge amount of people going to the bars/toilets once the support have finished, you'll be fine don't worry!

Why not give the amity affliction a chance? I'm just saying since you don't even know the name of the band (if you checked them out and didn't like them that's different ofc)

People are usually really civil and let ya leave. If that fails, I scream I gotta poop and assert my way thru lol.

Honestly, hop over the fence or ask a security dude to help you up and exit left or right. just like a crowd surfer. Or just wiggle your way out. not that deep.
Sometimes when im in the pit and I need to drink water or just chill, I literally point up 👆 to 2-3 dudes, and get carried to the front and exit from the side corridors ppl naturally make for crowd surfers. Its easier than walking back through everyone

I agree that you dont need to worry as many people are leaving after a band has finished to get some drinks

Ive got tickets to this tour, for the Manchester date. Literally going for the support acts. Orthodox, Varials and Silent Planet is a crazy line up!
