mosh pits & dubstep

[brasco]

And that's why I hate moshpits, at a dubstep night or even a metal gig.
If you want to punch/kick each other in the face, practise Thai boxing or ultimate fighting...

Let me enjoy the music, and WATCH MY SHOES

Why mosh at a dubstep night in the first place?! I just don't get it.

Is that a dubstep party?

[crucible12]

to be honest dont really give a shit how others show their appreciation.
less someone ends up whackin either me or one of the crew. then shit gets violent

[Basstronomer]

Is that a dubstep party?

nope, I don't think so
It's probably a hardcore gig...

[amphibian]

Music tempo, and it's drum kit are what inspire dance and how it's done. If people want to mosh to dubstep, let them have it their way. Jesus.

I don't mosh to it, but the movements I can do at times are pretty extreme, to the point of jumping up in the air then landing hard on a snapping snare.

So long as they're not hitting you, why give a shit?

That said - If I had my way, the gabber stomp would have been wiped out a long time ago, for pure ugliness factor alone. lol

[Visitor]

do not like

do like how they beat each other up tho

[mrdii]

Don't wanna sound corny but you should just chill and dance to the music...

Dubstep does seem to attract some right tosser fans tbh...I don't truly no how to describe them - basically indie homophobe. kids who think they're "special" because they enjoy "filth" and don't look past that one-dimensional side of dubstep. These are the ones who dress like retards too, just enjoy the F!cking music...

Someone must've been in the 'mosh pit' in Arena 1 at Outlook for Skream's set?

I see why a mosh pit happened in that case; Skream dropped Metal Mouth.

[_cheef_]

Sheeit...I never used to mosh at rock shows...why the hell would I want to at a dubstep show???

[clairvoyeur]

Except that they are hitting you, that's the point. I like listening and dancing to music not being hit in the head or pushed over by a bunch of bros which tends to happen at every show I've been to and it's fucking ridiculous.

[dublerium]

Just thick isn't it, and fucking annoying when getting immersed in beats to get a limb in the face.

Spot on mate. Had The same problemo at leeds. homophobe. starting pits. In all honesty I was ridiculously twisted but a few of us just stood in the pit to make a point. Actually spoilt my Magnetic Man experience a tad bit!

[joeki]

Magnetic man unfortunately is not the sum of its parts, especially live.

They were great fun at pukkelpop fest though, fortunately the crowd didn't resort to moshing there.

[HamCrescendo]

allow greasy haired headbangers getting their lank chest length hair in your mouth aswell.

[SubLime]

we keep our masculinity by ramming other dudes.

thats all i took from that rant

[joff]

Moshing can be so annoying if ur just ther for the music or particular djs (and not drunk). But if people just start banging into you no fists and shit, just jumping about pushing then it can be are lot more fun bein in it than the outside of it. tbh i didnt expect a mosh pit for tek-one, but lots of laddish nobheads went bashing around at the front... so fuck it i went in for a little mosh even my girl mate went in got a little battered but it was all jokes

[JustabitMajestic]

there's absolutely nothing wrong with moshing. if none of you guys want to mosh stand off to the sides and "dance"
most of what constitutes dancing is just standing and jumping in place or grinding on some random chick who's so wasted she won't even notice your nerdy forum lurking paws grip her waist as you really feel that bangin' tune.
moshing and hype are great.
standing there pumping my fist is the exact opposite of fun.
if you dont want to mosh or get hit, don't go near the pit, and don't cry about it.

I don't care how "hype" a tune is...moshing with a bunch of bros at a dubstep show is fucking stupid.

Maybe you'll understand this once you hit your 20's, maybe not...

Moshing is generally shit. Sometimes you need them though to scare off the morons sat in the middle of the dance floor, eyes closed, legs crossed 'meditating.' Fucking hippies.
