Moshing
monkandmovies13:
I almost got moshed to death this summer at a Gogol Bordello show.
I'm not sure if it was actually rough enough to be a mosh pit, but I couldn't breath, got lots of nice bruises, and was about to pass out, so I think it may qualify.
valley_parade:
I like it.
I did not like having some random frat boy BITE ME in a mosh pit at Warped this summer, though. WHO FUCKING BITES?!
pinkpiche:
As with every other sort of dancing, there are no-no's and biting definitely falls under that catagory.
Mosh is good.
valley_parade:
It was probably my fault, though. My friend had dragged me to see Family Force Five, and I got so bored that I decided moshing would alleviate things.

--- Quote from: a pack of wolves on 23 Nov 2007, 05:34 ---That's not hardcore dancing, or rather it's just one very particular type of hardcore dancing. Kickboxing (although I thought the term KDS, or karate dance style, was funnier myself) used to only be done at tough guy shows back in the day. Not a good thing even then, but if you were going to see a band like Knuckledust you really should know what to expect. But then people started doing it at more and more gigs, finally spreading out of the hardcore scene with all these myspace metal bands. I haven't seen it in ages though, I don't go to metal gigs much and nobody does it at proper hardcore or metal gigs round here.

Notice the inverted commas round hardcore dancing, and the talk of the South. Awful myspace kids are like a fucking rash over Hampshire, Dorset and the Isle of Wight. It pretty much goes away once you get north of London. Your based in Leeds, right? I imagine it's a lot better up your way. I've been out a few times in Birmingham, and the difference in quality is ridiculous. It's a shame, because we have some good venues, good people and good bands down here, they're just swamped.
