Quote from: Johnny Mac on May 25, 2010, 07:14:21 PMSome 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 shiteeee 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: shiteeee 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 :DSome 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:

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