I've only really been to a couple of 'dance' gigs (Orbital and Kid606), most of the electronic gigs I've been to have been... well, I was going to say quieter affairs, but maybe just less hectic. When I saw Four Tet the crowd didn't move that much, and to be frank, I thought his set was appalling (drum and synth loop, then he just messes with delay so it speeds up and slows down and presses a couple of buttons that make squawking noises. For over an hour. Really fucking awful), whilst most 'rock' gigs (again, I've only really been to one 'rock' gig, most stuff I've seen has been indie/whatever you want to call it) have been more lively and I've got into it more.
Folk gigs are the best. Everything's so much more intimate.

Anyway, I've given up on going to big gigs unless it's someone I REALLY, REALLY want to see. Smaller, local gigs are far more enjoyable.
