It's quite funny, but I absolutely do not understand why people want to do that. :?

I think this is what happens when the local Games Workshop closes down.

I think its hilarious! I wouldn't want to stand in the middle like old baldy here but I'd love a charge at the other side. Well 20 odd years ago I would have been jumping around in that all day, pissed up on fest lager and loving it! Nowadays I wouldn't get too involved. When I used to go to Anthrax gigs especially at Brixton I used to jump in the mosh pit as it was known then. Its just a case of boys letting off steam in a 'controlled enviroment' :lol: :lol: :lol:
Its makes good you tube clips. I love to take photos of this stuff hanging over the top of them out of harms way.

It's the main reason I stopped going to gigs. I've never seen the fun in laddish knockabout violence (or contact sports, come to that). Whenever someone crashed into me I'd just get angry and want to deck them, so I ended up going to the back. Where I couldn't see a thing. :(

I know why they do it. Its adrenalin, its fantastic!
Your showing your age now Phil. I went up stairs when I saw Anthrax and BLS a few years back at The Astoria (Vanished!)
-
Dunno about showing my age, I felt like that when I was 25 or 26! I always used to go upstairs at the Astoria.
Guess I'm not an adrenaline junkie. Seriously, I've never felt comfortable in a very "laddish" atmosphere, too much testosterone. I'd rather hang out with the girlies. :P

Girls love dudes who hit other dudes in the face... they say they don't... but they do.
disclaimer: this may not be considered fact or science.
-
That's because they think they can "tame" them. And they never can.
They're always disapproving of the bad boys, but then they always fall for exactly that type.
Be-yotches.
(Nice guys finish last, as usual.)
-
that is true... i find it's true anyway.
I've been seeing my lass a while, and shes an art school type that listened to folks, like morris dancing, old pagan festivals, modern high rises and nice walks.
But if some guy in a t-mobile shop tries to rip her off and I threaten to go down and sort him out, then she'll admit she digs that. In the scheme of things I'm a very tame guy. She's also from Morley. so that might explain a few things.
-
Yep that's very true and then they get a taste of it and get trapped in a life of hell. I knew girls years ago who were gorgeous that went out with bullys. I've seen some since and their empty shells, scars, drug addictions, alcoholics, nervous wrecks, babys by lots of blokes. Its all from going out with the wrong sort of men from an early age really. Some do break away from that. Loads of women also don't go near men like that when their older and wiser.

I heard the same about widdling!

There's nothing wrong with a bit of Moshing. I'm straight down the front at gigs having a leap about and a dance and having some fun to the bands I like (other than at festivals where I'm far too wasted!). The only thing that has really started to ruin it (and probably has done forever) is the idiots who get off on throwing their fists around and being the 'hard man'. I don't mind having someone fall on me or an accidental fist/elbow to the head but these guys windmilling their arms about, donkey kicking and throwing their elbows deserve a punch in the dick.
As for Wall of Deaths, why not? They're fun and the adrenaline rush is great! Everyone picks each other up again and we all have a beer, huzzah! The only bad thing about them is having what seems like most of Games Workshop's clientele storm at you.
I did get beat up by a girl at a Biffy Clyro gig a few years back though. Back flips and all sorts!

Did you see Radiohead when they played the Astoria?

As long as it stays at hard and extreme metal gigs I dont mind
You get some idiot who thinks that they will bring it to a a classic rock type gig and it's very unwelcome
Like strating a mosh at a Joe Bonnamassa gig or a ZZ Top gig
They dont care about the gig or the music - its all about having a ruck
I must be getting old ........actually I hated it 25 years ago (when I was only 20) when thrashers gatecrashed other gigs and wanted to crowd surf and stage dive at gigs that they weren't into - Thunder, FM, Quireboys , etc etc because there weren't any thrash gigs to go to
-
I agree with you 100% there Jon, how the hell could you mosh to ZZ Top anyway? (I was dancing like a FOOL to them at Download).
An older friend of mine was (and still is) well in to the Thrash and Extreme scene. He said that in the 80's rather than go and gatecrash Rock gigs he started to go to the nuttier Punk gigs instead (Discharge GBH etc). Supposedly it was a lot of fun but there were some injuries. The best ever wall of death I've ever seen was at a Testament show recently. Lots of boozed up old Thrashers holding beer + Wall of Death = BEER VOLCANO! It was magnificent!
I grew up in the Punk scene in my area (not that there was much of one) so it was all circle pits or dancing like a loon for me. What makes me laugh these days are all the kids who are into bands like Bring Me The Horizon, Whitechapel and Annotations of An Autopsy who think they are so br00talz. Skipping around like a fool and throwing 'dem elbows about does not make you hard, it makes you a c*nt!!

Yeah, you'd see the same little groups of 15-year-olds at every gig, didn't seem to matter what band it was so long as they were "metal" (in the sense that we used the term in those far-off days). They'd be climbing up on stage going "look at me" to their mates, totally ignoring the band.
Of course, gigs were dead cheap in those days. I wonder if it still happens now? It's about six times the price.
-
It's not too bad these days. Depends where you go.

Some of the punk gigs I've seen, (old punk bands not all these w**ker yank new punk bands) the left and right wing used to kick off inside. I used to think its was funny watching all these idiots knocking 7 bells out of each other. Have drink, listen and watch the bands and fights. To me, it was the norm really.
As for the mosh stuff, I've never seen much of it at rock gigs. If it does happen, its not what I'd call a problem. But then again I used stand in the shelf at Spurs for years and I've seen a hell of a lot worse at football matches than gigs. Its all relative to what you perceive as unacceptable. People play up when they're drunk and excited, its just human nature.
Before all the porn shite hit the fan for that creep Gary Glitter, his gigs were had a mosh pit too! I went to two, for a bit of a laugh. I even got pilled up at one. :lol: shite gigs though. Most of it was mimed. That must have been around '92.
At BLS 5 years back in the Astoria, just when this forum got going, it was insane in there. It was entertaining though. Its all part of the experience for me. Nothing will change.

Was that the Mafia tour? I was at that show, at the front for the whole show, even got a free beer from James Lamenzo :D
Some girl bit me for some reason and kept pinching my rather nice buttocks, probably trying to get to the front but damned if I'm gonna move for some desperate totty :lol:

Yes that's the one I was at! I paid 70 quid fro that ticket from one of the scalpers but I really enjoyed it. I got pissed & stoned upstairs with a bunch of loons from Brixton as I went on me own. It was a good gig. You must have had a good time down there. :lol:

That was funny, but why would anyone go to a music concert just to get beat up?
