What I have noticed for myself and other Metalheads is that the preference regarding the favourite bands and or subgenre might shift, or that the mix/percentage with non-Metal music might change a bit etc. But from my experience, people that have enjoyed Metal as teenagers still like it at older ages.
At Metal festivals and concerts you generally find a wide spectrum of all ages. I’ve seen grannies enjoying the show next to teenagers moshing. I’ve seen whole families, or talked to people that came alone from another continent to attend that festival. I’ve also done that myself once and had no problem finding nice people to hang out with.
@OP, are you asking for a specific reason, or just a general vibe check? Or are you a Metalhead yourself and wanna see what the perspective from other Metalheads in other communities is?
I often ask a question on here to give me something to get my mind off of the pain immediately following my physical therapy routine from a broken neck and back 10 years ago. I’m not much for words ATM. But yes, I’m a metalhead
Fuck, that sounds horrible :(
I wish you a good recovery with as little pain as possible!
You have a good strategy. Reading other people’s stories is like reading a book. But instead of fiction, it’s (hopefully true) small glimpses into human lives. I also love that for escaping my own reality for a short while.
I think those people like to have fun and they don’t take themselves too seriously.
I don’t think that my perception of it changed in the last 30 years since I was a teenager.
Can confirm.
