On the other end of the spectrum, there's a guy I know who seems to personally respond to everything he's invited to on Facebook by commenting in the event. Nobody is expecting you to make it to a gig that's hundreds of miles away from where you live, you probably shouldn't have been invited, you don't need to confirm that you won't be attending with a personalised message. "Sorry I can't make it to this gig in Brighton, it looks great. Unfortunately I live in Newcastle". If the guy in question wasn't so annoying it might be endearing.
I hate how it seems to be standard now to ignore an invite as a way of saying 'nah i'm not coming but thanks'. Particularly in group chats on fb/whatsapp.
