explaining straightedge

could be.  i've never seen it.  maybe i'm only going to violent shows.

KharBevNor:
So, I was at a metal gig, and this metalcore band were playing support. The musics slacked off and most of the people are out the pit but there's this hardcore kid  running around the pit basically sort of slamming into people at the sides (who weren't in the pit) and pushing off them. Really annoying.

Anyway. He slams into this big guy in an Impaled Nazarene shirt. Spills his pint.

Big guy hands the remains of his pint to his mate and then just runs sideways and slams into the hardcore kid SO HARD that he actually flies six or so feet into the side of the pit.

Goes back, finishes his pint. Hardcore kid not seen in pit again.

Don't know what the moral of that story was, but it was damn funny.

Mnementh:
I'm a little confused here.  Before we started talking about fighting at shows, how was this about music?

Secondly, since when was there a "straightedge" label.  And why do we care?

24_hour_revenge_therapy:
well, it was kind of a six degrees thing.  straightedge was a philosophy born out of music.  and this thread started because of another thread that was about music and...you get the picture.  

and you don't have to care.  not my problem.  i was just trying to clear up any misconceptions people may have had. just trying to be friendly.

oh, and khar, yeah.  that is funny.

KharBevNor:
I saw someone try to windmill whilst drunk once as well.

Actually, thinking back on that, I think I see why hardcore dancing and no drinking go together so well.
