Moshing

<< < (8/11) > >>

Liam:
Most of the moshing that occurs at shows I go to is just a result of people dancing at close proximity. It can be extremely fun, especially when someone gets under you right at the height of an upward motion and you end up on top of the crowd. You may get bruised and you may fall down, but it's not dangerous, and everyone comes out smiling because no one in the pit is being a dick.

At some shows though, the moshpit is actually a pit of karate windmills in skinny jeans. Dudes and ladies get kicked in the face, punched in the throat, and stabbed by sharp hairstyles. It is not fun, because everyone is being a dick, especially the people who push you into the pit.

Mmmm, not really. You can fail to grasp the point of moshing and that's cool, as long as you keep out of harm's way. I'm referring more to the people who are like 'oh what's this, people slamming into each other, I'm going to mosey on in and OW YOU HIT ME YOU ASSHOLE WAH WAH WAH'.

Drill King:
I wouldn't consider most mosh pits to be dancing, it's really just a bar fight to music when you get down to it.

Head banging, thrashing, going nuts to hardcore and the like? I approve.

Moshing can be fun! Or it can suck.
