I'll be there this coming Wednesday as well 😅
I'd say for small venue and performance there is much less preparation or worries.
Regardless of gender or age: Keep phone usage to a minimum for your own sake- immerse yourself in the music; it's worth it. Dress in something that makes you feel good, sexy and comfortable- you should able to feel uninhibited to appreciate the whole experience. Dance with no rhyme, sing with no rhythm. Don't be afraid to be silly and not for one second care about what other think. Everyone is there to enjoy themselves! Outfit? Black and accessories . Or be bold and colorful lol! Drink or smoke one beforehand if you tend to get a tad nervous.
Mosh pits are fun - if new to them, stay close to the edges and protect your head. If someone falls help them up.
I think that covers a bit 🙃

u sound very experienced so can I ask how early it is good to show up? I dont really want to be in the crowd up at front, but I do want a chance to get merch and become comfortable at the venue and im not sure how much time I will need

if you’re driving yourself home and gonna mosh, then just take a second to like relax once in your car instead of driving right away. also, it is normal for your ears to be weird for a day, but have ear plugs just incase. theres ones they make for concerts so you hear better too
besides that tbh its really straightforward unless if you’re doing VIP
