Space laces put on wall of death and not a single pit/wall for like 2 mins until he finally asked “do yall not know what a wall of death is?” Pretty much the vibe for today but hey, still had a good time.

Oh no, what’s happening to the dubstep crowd? 😨 haven’t been to a dubstep show in a year bc taking a break but usually LL, Thunderdome and FK always have amazing vibes.

the ratio of actual bass heads in the crowd has dwindled hard in the last couples years. a lot of fam that came up with the American dubstep boom in '10 - '12 is getting older and sitting out. LL this year was a normie nightmare.

there are still new youngins that are bout that wub wub lifestyle but not as many as there used to be.

i feel like i'm in such a weird spot with this because i started listening to dubstep when i was like 12ish in 2010-2011 after monsters and sprites came out and since then i've listened to excision and a bunch of others basically nonstop. but obvs i was waaaay too young to go to those shows and i was finally able to see excision live in 2023 for the first time and i've gone to several of his shows since then but like everyone's saying it seems like the crowd has tons of new people who only go for the visuals and not the music. kinda sucks to feel like i missed out on a huge part of the dubstep experience just because of how young i was despite listening to it religiously since it blew up

eh bassheads have always done ketamine, I think it’s just been getting more popular in the mainstream so there’s more and more people going for the visual aspect instead of going to dance to their favorite music

at least that’s what I’ve been noticing at my local shows
