Collective Effervescence and the Emotional Experiences at Concerts

Have you ever been at a concert and looked over to see all the people around you are screaming or crying or yelling at the top of their lungs? Or maybe you yourself have done those things at a concert. Well if you have we aren’t judging, because you aren’t alone. It’s all because of the great thing called psychology. It is what causes us to form emotional connections with other people. This includes the artists that you watch perform and even the other fans in the crowd with you. The emotions that you feel during a concert can drive you to do things that you wouldn’t normally do in your day to day like breaking down into snot filled tears or scream until you’re hoarse. And at great concerts, even people who aren’t emotional at all can’t help but to get the feels. Once the crowd gets going that energy can even spread to others, all because of this thing called collective effervescence. This episode, we’ll be giving you all the details about that and so much more because this week we are diving into the wild ride that are people's emotional breakdowns at concerts!
