[kikimm]

I'm too claustrophobic for it, so it's not an enjoyable experience for me.

Yeah, I know, I'm no fun.

Mega moshing

I don't really like getting beat up because other people think it's fun.

Depends on what kind of mosh pit it is. If it's people running back and forth and bodyslamming eachother, no. If it's a circle pit with good people (people that will help you up when you fall, unlike a-holes at major concerts), yes. I pit everytime I go to a punk show.

[boris no no]

last time i went into a mosh pit i got kicked in the face and my glasses broke...
i used to love being in them but now i'm too fragile! i'd die!! plsu i'm really scared i'll get pulled under and get stomped on!
thats why i've got seats when i go and see rammstein. plus i really don't want to be set on fire like the last time they were in the uk!

Moshing is cool most of the time - apart from, as mentioned, some people who seem to forget they're at a concert and turn it into some kind of new edition of the Bloodsport series. I also invested in a pair of capped boots after the second last gig i went to, as some horse jumped on my foot.

i've retired from moshing as i'm now twenty one and jumping up and down in trousers and a jumper with a bunch of 16 years olds in goth gear make me look like the loser that i am.

You mean the grem pop-punk 'moshing' where you jump up and down from the moment the song starts to the moment the song ends?

Or traditional moshing?

Better yet - HxC moshing. Now theres a sight. I love watching that, it cracks me up half the time. I'm tempted to jump in and start <s>acting like an idiot</s> moshing.

I inadvertantly find my way into any pit. I saw Walls of Jericho once and was right on the edge, so kept getting pulled in. Mwa.

People always think I'm starting pits. I was just happily skanking along to capdown when these big guys just joined me and started a full blown pit with me in the middle. I couldn't fight my way out so I just held out in the middle giving as good as I got. They gave me thumbs up at the end, which was nice.....at least they were polite about hitting me.

I think it would be Hilarios if there was a moshpit at a christian concert...

[TheAbominatrix]

There ARE moshpits at Christian concerts. I got my worst injuries at a Christian punk concert, because there were so many people in the pit. I fell and sort of spun around so my head hit a railing, and someone's knee came up and hit me in the nose, so my head hurt and I was bleeding. Of course everyone helped me out. Punk pits (REAL punk pits) arent about hurting eachother seriously. Just about having fun.

[Chaos]

Atchally there are.
There was a rather nice one at a Further Seems Forever gig.

Also, go to any Christian hardcore band and there'll be one. Batillion of Saints et al. (I think they are Christian HxC although I could be mistaken. )

Love thy neighbour in thy pit.

Much love to the Coldplay Mosh Pit <3

[Mindflare]

Doesn't make much sense to me, so no. I like to sit down and enjoy music as music. I guess I don't prefer the right kind of music for moshing.

Edit: I got an advertisement for armor at the top of this thread. XD
