Question:
18+ music venues, if we're with the band can we get in? How can we get in anyway?
?

I'm 17 and getting really bummed about all of the 18+ shows, I know it's harder for my favourite bands to get 16+ or 14+ venues and I know when I reach 18 I will be thankful for the age limit, but one of my favourite bands is playing a couple of 18+ shows on their tour soon.
1- we know the band and of they say we're with them or some ****, would we be allowed in without getting id'd
2- how could we get in anyway, some places we know that won't be okay for like the London dates, we get into over 18 venues easily enough in our local area, but that's going to be harder, if I can get someone who has ID with the same hair colour as me, would they be really strict on that?
3- I was getting into 14+ shows at 11 so I know music venues are less strict than clubs, but, I feel like 14+ and 16+ are different from 18+ is it actually that much harder getting into an 18+ music venue in opposition to a club? (which we would never get into)
I don't actually know anyone who's ID I can borrow by the way, so that's not as likely:)
Thanks:)
Thanks.

Suck it up and wait a year. You kids want the freakin' world!



Edit: Suggest what you like: It doesn't matter what flippant colloquialisms I use, you're still a kid and your attempt to demonstrate otherwise by trying to employ advanced grammar ("referencing to someone?") and by adopting a pseudo-condescending tone with someone twice your age and many times your level of education has done nothing to dissuade me from my original standpoint.



The fact is, the venue operates an age policy and you are below that age; ergo you are not permitted to attend the concert. You should accept that and offer your friends support in another way - perhaps by buying their music or spreading the word for them. If they are truly any good then they will still be playing shows when you are old enough to attend.



Second edit: Hahaha, well that's one well-rattled cage right there! The phrase you are looking for is "referring to someone" or perhaps "making reference to someone" by the way.



My response was an answer, like it or not, and if you don't, then might I suggest you don't ask such questions on an open public forum. You clearly have a problem with rules and authority. Sometimes you have to quit your whining and accept that you can't have everything your own way all the time. Failing that, you'd need to speak to the venue or people associated with it, not piss and moan on the internet and ask complete strangers - the ones you obviously hold in such low regard - to help you come up with dishonest and possibly illegal solutions to your very juvenile little issue.



Lastly, who's the one being rude? Did I call you an idiot, mention inserting things into your rectum or suggest that you end your life? Lol, grow up, sweetheart.

you could desire to get out and artwork AT IT by way of fact you will no longer get any gigs in bars... What you're able to do is get into some venues like fairs and commerce exhibits and private events... you in all probability prefer the prepare besides by way of fact maximum 17 12 months olds in a band are quite poor so as that they prefer each and every of the visual allure es and prepare they could get. in case you're as sturdy as you think of you're, get some gigs taking part in SPRING PROMS. i began out my first band while i replaced into 15 so by utilising the time i replaced into 17 and a senior in intense college, the band already had a sturdy acceptance.. We even performed in bars.. yet that replaced into in 1957 while human beings did no longer get all hyper approximately little ones taking part in in bars.. it replaced into an entire distinctive time and place.
