Moshing

<< < (6/11) > >>

Jace:
I like the ol two step if the band is right, and maybe getting in on the old pushing around moshing where if someone falls you pick them up. What I don't get is jackasses at ska shows that start a moshpit instead of the skankpit. That is what I don't get.

kablaaamo:
People who mosh when they shouldn't are assholes. People that don't know how to mosh and think that punching people counts are assholes. People that get confused by the idea of a pit, wander in, and then bitch about the experience are assholes.

If those three classes of people didn't exist I would be 100% pro-moshing.

And I am a polite, teeny tiny little lady. I get knocked around a bit too much in a pit proper but I like to be right at the edge; you can push people off and keep things going without getting destroyed yourself.

Tom:
Am I coming across as the latter group?

ALoveSupreme:
I was regrettably at a Tilly and the Wall show once, and during the closing song, some younger kids started moshing.  It was probably the most embarrassing and unexpected thing that has ever occured to me in my entire life.  I mean, I'm talking full on push mosh with kids falling down and shit. 

I still think hardcore dancing is fun, though I wish I had gotten more in when I first got into metalcore/hardcore.  There weren't as many people in pits for the bands I liked.  Now it's way too many and I'm a little too timid of getting smacked.  Though, as is my experience, kids are really polite about everything. 

a pack of wolves:
I wish I'd done it more back in the day too. There's just not so many bands playing the kind of hardcore I like round my way, and those that are generally don't have enough fans to dance to them.
