Last week I spent it following NIN. On Monday I met up with four people from the internet and unfortunately I didnt click with these two women. I couldnt hold a conversation with them. Im shy and quiet so I think I find these sort of things to be more nerve racking then others will. But these two women were a personality clash with me. I felt like they didnt like me because I was about 5-10 years younger and it just didnt go well. They jumped in on my conversations, werent bothered by me speaking and I basically only had NIN in common with them. I only had to deal with them for 24 hours because as soon as I got to the first venue for NIN I met these americans who were lovely and then my friend came and joined us later. The next show I just hanged out with my friend.

Now this isnt a big deal is it? you meet people and you get along with them or you dont. This happens on the net and inperson interactions. When I got home I went onto the net and spoke out how I found these two to be cold but I didnt put their names in. However they worked it out and they viewed me saying they were cold as a personal attack and also that I was taking the piss out of one of theirs laugh - one of them had a donkey type laugh , seriously it was bad but I didnt write anything about it. They responded by saying they didnt have anything negative or positive to write about me and Im confused by what that could be.

I only regret speaking out for one reason and I know I sound a cunt for being like this. I only regret it because if I go see NIN in the future I worry they may attack me in the crowd. I hope they just ignore me. Maybe I should have kept my mouth shut and been nice as I could have used them in the future for NIN advantages but I didnt. So yeah I know that sounds awful of me to write and this shouldnt bother me but Its my insecurities that doesnt let me be strong willed as I used to be.

Meeting up from the net is cool. Ive met some cool people from the net - some are cool people from here - and luckly I havent met any psychopaths etc. But when it goes wrong its fucking annoying..anyone else had bad experiences ? how did they work out? did you see the said person ever again?

I have met up with people from the internet before and I also now fear being attacked in the crowd at NIN gigs. It's just not worth it really.

If the fans are united, they'll never be divided. NIN fans.

wow that really sucks. i am sorry to hear about your experience.

i have had 7 internet meetups in my life, all of them in the past month and they were all great. i got along really good with the people and had loads of fun.

what is it with NIN fans, from what i read here it sounds like there are some real assholes?
or does that happen with other bands too?
(i only had one concert meetup so far, it was at a tegan and sara gig last week and it went well too. but honestly, you can't really go wrong with tegan and sara fans, they are all really nice haha)
