I'm going to go see Five Finger Death Punch, Escape The Fate, Miss May I, Gemini Syndrome and Black Breath next month, I was wondering approximately how many calories I'll burn in the hectic crowd? I currently weigh 122 lbs and I'm 5'7"

Your help is much appreciated, thank you!

    Wear a heart rate monitor and have fun.

    For me, it differs depending on the band line up and how the crowd gets.

    I don't have, and can't afford a HMR as of now.

    At a recent Alice Cooper/Manson concert I went to where I danced quite a bit, I burned an average of 4.5 calories per minute (per my bodymedia, which I find pretty accurate).

    Our stats are a little different. I weigh a little more (around 129 lbs) but I'm older (37), but it gives you an idea where to start.

    I really don't see any possible way to be able to even come up with a ballpark figure on this. Just go have fun and keep your diet clean until you get there. One night won't ruin your goals.
