THINGS NOT TO DO AT A SWITCHFOOT CONCERT

This is the place where we list all the things, silly or serious, that you really should not do at a Switchfoot concert. Have fun!

Your Name:

Things not to do at a Switchfoot concert:







DO NOT...

1. Be fangirly. You will incure the wrath of other fams.
2. Stand next to a fangirl. (or, heaven forbid, fangirls!) It ruins the experience to have someone screaming to Tim in your ear.
3. Try to hug them without asking.
4. Touch Jon's hair when he goes into the crowd.
5. Slap Jon's butt like the infamous drunk lady.
6. Go home while Switchfoot is performing. That is a definite no no.
7. Be rude to the security guards!! Although sometimes they may be mean and uneducated of how dedicated we fans are, we don't want to be known as "those snobby Switchfoot fans." Just try to respect them, I'm sure their job is very stressful.
8. Leave right after the concert ends. There's a good chance you'd miss meeting the guys.
9. Do NOT attempt a cheer stunt. Doing so will cause Jerome Fontamillas to look at you weird.
10. Bring earplugs.
11. Get mad at fangirls. How the heck do you not fangirly at a concert, especially if you are one to begin with?
12. Yell "I LOVE YOU JON/TIM/CHAD/JEROME/DREW!!!" every five seconds.....or at all.
13. Yell out one of those great hits like MTL and Dare in the middle of the concert
14. Jump up on stage to attack Tim.
15. Head-bang too much, I did and I got a weird look from Jerome.
16. Scream during sacred parts: Only Hope, 24, when band members are talking, etc. It's rude and you might get elbowed and/or punched as a result.
17. Hold up a sign that says "play shine by the newsboys"
18. Sing a song that's by a different artist at the top of your lungs
19. Boo Switchfoot
20. Carry Jon away while he's crowd surfing
21. Tell them they're hot.
22. Bring and hold up a ridiculously large sign during the concert...none of the fams behind you can see! (put messages on smaller signs)
23. Give them a smelly shoe to sign (nothing is harder on the nose than a smelly shoe)
24. Ask either of the Foremans for a hug.
25. Pass out. This falls under the category of fangirliness. It proves to be anti-productive because one the concert can't start on time because your lying unconscious, and two you miss the concert.
26. Do not scream out "Jon, I LOVE YOU AND WANT TO HAVE YOUR BABIES!" Ever.
27. Admit your love for the guys. We all love them...If we didn't we wouldn't be at the concert but we recognize the fact that they are all indeed married. Respect, seriously.
28. Yell out obscure songs for the guys to play...it annoys other fams. If we wanted to hear Freebird, we'd listen to the album.
29. Yell "Take it off!" when Jon takes off his button down shirt because it was like a million degrees.
30. Grab Jon's butt while he's crowd surfing...AWKWARD.
31. Wear a shirt that says "Tim Foreman is Saucy!"....it might just creep them out.
32. Do not try to take one of the guys' wedding rings!
33. Carry on a cell phone call or text repeatedly, especially in a fangirly fashion i.e. "OMG!!! JON FOREMAN IS LIKE 5 FEET AWAY FROM ME!!!"
34. Ask Jon for one more picture (when you got one 2 minutes ago) when he's standing out in the cold, freezing his buns off, and trying to get to his car.
35. Address Tim as "Hey Tim you hot guy, you!"
36. Monopolize any band member's time by telling him your entire life story especially when there are many many many more fams waiting to just say hello.
37. Take a million cheesy camera phone pictures of yourself (with an annoying flash) while there is a perfectly entertaining show taking place in front of you.
38. Write on a giant poster board asking Jon what his phone number is.
39. Try to cut a lock of hair off jon when he comes into the crowd!
40. Pet Jon's head when he goes into the crowd
41. Go naked.
42. Get too close to the "splash zone"
43. Swear at the people who are crushing your lungs
44. Bring a giant sign that says "UNDEROATH IS THE BEST BAND EVER!"....you might as well leave!
45. Tell another fan that the guys in Switchfoot are 'asses'.
46. Do not disobey Jon. When he tells you to put your hands up in the air, clap, or sing along, you do it.
47. Do not scream or make noise when Jon is speaking to the crowd in a serious manner. You will incur the instant wrath of everybody around you.
48. Don't decide to check your messages in the middle of 24 (or any other song) it's rude to the band and the people around you
49. Talk to them like their HUGE rockstars.
50. Mix up their names in front of die hard fams
51. Make one of them a stupid shirt that says "i <3 (insert your name)", then ask them to try it on!
52. Refuse to swing during Company Car. You will be swayed by the crowd surrounding you, so why not?
53. When Jon is 2 feet away from you DO NOT smack people in the face just to get closer to him/his hair/his arm/his hand/other body parts (naughty :o).
54. Bark at any of the Switchfoot guys
55. Ask who they are! You will hear every fact about Switchfoot from fams, if you ask that stupid questions!
56. Ask the guys how they scored on the SAT (In fact don't ask ANYONE that)
57. Bring fangirls with you... however much you like them
58. Brag about your excessive knowledge of Switchfoot to all the fams around you, and then not know the lyrics to all of the songs.
59. Try to start clapping to a beat when it's a slow song...like Let your Love be Strong. You will probably get punched in the face or somebody might burn you with their lighter.
60. Think you're better looking them one of the Switchfoot guys :D
61. Tell everyone around you that your band is better then Switchfoot
62. Jump on stage and try to attack Tim. HE HAS NINJA POWERS, HOW DARE YOU!!!
63. Ask the fams around you who is the cutest member
64. Ask what balut tasted like
65. Scream at the very top of your lungs at random intervals that don't even make sense. (like, for example, when everyone else is singing)
66. Leave the show early
67. Try to get into their touring bus without permission
68. Rewrite the lyrics to Oh! Gravity saying how hot Jon is and then stand at the very front of the stage right in front of Jon and scream the lyrics at the top of your lungs.
69. Ask one of the guys if they could sell some of their unwanted clothes on eBay
70. Do not sit down and plug your ears... ever. In fact, don't even think about it...
71. Go and sing along when you don't know the words..it'll annoy all the fams... especially if it's one like dare you to move... (when you go dare you to moo)
72. DO NOT go to a Switchfoot concert without first making sure that everyone going with you has read this list and understands proper Switchfoot concert etiquette!
73. Stand completely still showing no emotion during the whole concert.
74. Ask them to eat dinuguan, another "wonderful" Filipino food.
75. Don't JUST clap at the ends of the songs, let yourself REALLY get into it......but not to the point where your embarrassing yourself.
76. DO NOT make stupid noises because other fans get pretty mad when they want to hear Jon singing and not you!
77. Stick cameras in Jon's eyes when he comes into the crowd and make him blind.
78. Celebrate when you get Jon (or any other of the band members) spit/sweat on you. People would stare at you weird, and frankly, it's not quite sanitary ... :D
79. Jump on stage during the American Dream freeze with a knife to see if the guys will unfreeze to run away
80. Tell my dad he is too old to enjoy Switchfoot.
81. Smoke a cigarette during the concert in the crowd. It's very rude, and annoying for those who just want to enjoy Switchfoot.
82. Shout out the lyrics for one of their more popular songs (DYTM, M2L) at the top of your lungs in the middle of Let Your Love Be Strong.
83. Let your mom head band violently. Especially cause people will stare at both of you. And it's probably pretty embarrassing when Romey and Drew shoot you guys some odd looks throughout the concert.
84. Don't headbang/punch people/shove people/etc at Switchfoot concerts. if you want to do that stuff i suggest going to see Disciple or Skillet.

94. Scream "OH! GRAVITY" at the top of your lungs in Jon's ear as he's walking by you during "On Fire".
95. If you get to talk to Jon, don't sit there and quote switchfoot song lyrics every other sentence. He might get weirded out.
96. Scream "OH MY GOD I LOVE YOU!" when you get to meet the guys. Everyone hates fangirls.
97. Don't try to impress the guys by your profound Switchfoot knowledge. "Oh my gravity, it was so cool when you stole Tim's line when he said that the wind was piercing his soul in episode 18."
98. Go out back where the buses are and slash the tires of their bus, so that the guys are forced to stay in your city for a few more precious hours...
99. Say the opening band was better cause they are younger
100. Try to trample or push security guards out of the way just to get closer to the stage. They are only there for your safety and they aren't trying to ruin the concert for you ;)
101. Criticize Jon's hair..or Drew's!!!
102. Complain about the concert afterwards or even worse...at the concert. In fact, if you even THINK about complaining, you should get your head examined.

112. Tell Jon that you think that his hair is AWESOME, and then give him the 10 page paper that you wrote about it.

114. Do not spend the entire concert telling the person next to you everything you know about the band. Good for you but I am never going to see you again or be super impressed that you know everything.
115. Yell out "TIM'S THE CUTE ONE!" while Jon's introducing his brother. (Seriously. Don't do it again. Yes, it's been done before. It's on one of the spring '07 bootlegs. So don't.)

131. Push the people in the mosh pit. NOT FUN. Jon SO wasn't getting the respect that he deserved.
