Question about concerts

I've never been to a concert before, but i really love As I Lay Dying. They have been a favourite band for over a year now (i usually get bored of music after a couple of weeks). I appreciate their musical talent, and as such i dont download any of their songs off limewire etc, i specifically go and buy their albums to support them and their talent. I want to go to one of their concerts, but i have heard that Heavy Metal concerts tend to be quite violent and i should avoid going because it will be dangerous. I'm turning 16 soon, male. Any advice?
