Pregnant women shouldn't be moshing...


I like to mosh yeah, but I don't like to get injured and whatnot. If I feel like im just gonna get my ass kicked by a bunch of asshole skinheads than I usually just stay away. I cannot STAND the big macho guys who stand in the middle and push people around, or the pussies who stand on the sides and push people around, but are to afraid to get in themselves. I hate to break it to you, asshole, but you are NOT a badass!

I mosh, but I try to pay more attention to the band while I am doing so. Im too small to get in there and start pushing people around so I pretty much just have fun getting pushed around. Overall, it's alot of fun.

The idea of moshing is not a very good one IMHO. Count me in with the "just listen to the music" crowd.

i went in a few pits in my day. i stopped when the lead singer of Project 86 landed on my head and severly sprained my neck.

beware of flying musicians...

I'd love to see Hell is for Heroes.

Someone else who's seen CKY :love: Sadly I've only seen them once, but next time they tour here I'm going to as many dates as possible.

As for HIFH, I'd love to see some of their earlier stuff live with moshing, but from what I've heard their new stuff could be a bit more stand there.

I'm seeing Megadeth in Febuary, I'm hoping to get the crap kicked out of me in a pit by some forty year old bikers.

Egads, when I saw CKY down in Folkstone they had the WORST crowd ever!
I serioulsy reckon the average age was 14.

No-one did *anything*, they just stood there and chanted CKY CKY intermittantly. The band was on the stage! Why would you chant for them when they are infront of you??

That and they started bouncing up and down to '96 quite bitter beings' and all the more well known tracks from their new album. It was...horrible.
So much so that me and my friends just sat on the balcony as we couldn't bare to be part of that lame excuse for a crowd.

They're fantastically freaking awesome, ALWAYS open with I Can Climb Mountains, playing it about twice as fast as the album version, really gets the crowd going.

Last show they peppered old favourites with stuff from the new album, which after I just checked, omg, out Feb 14th, damnit.

I think, since they're on a pretty no-name record label now, chances of them doing an American tour any time soon are pretty slim, I think I was lucky enough to find out they were doing a UK tour and snag them when I did, since there was next to nothing information about it.

Well, they may be on an unknown label, but they have their integrity, dignity, and at least they still have their fans, since people were lined up for...well, a damn long way outside the venue.
