Crowd Syndrome
Many of the people we see at Rock Medicine come in simply because
they're so overpowered by the event. What we call "crowd syndrome"
is simply a combination of over-excitement and energy due
to the number of people in the crowd, the flashing lights, the loud music
and the heat. If you feel very hot and sweaty, short of breath and faint,
you need to get away from it all for awhile in a (relatively) quiet place.
Come by Rock Medicine for a cool drink and some fresh air.
We recommend
that you eat a good meal before a show and perhaps even bring a sandwich
with you. It's generally a good idea to drink lots of non-sugary,
non-alcoholic liquids to compensate for the heat and excitement you're
about to have. Otherwise eat and party in style, rather than overindulging
and maybe missing the whole show!
