If you've ever been to a real Rock 'n Roll concert, you've seen a mosh pit of some kind. It may have been a standard pit you see at metal and hardcore shows, or it may have been a circle pit, which have become popular at Punk, Ska, and Punk Fusion shows, as well as at a lot of the more lively Rock shows out there. If you've never seen or heard of a mosh pit, I describe what it means to me in far too much detail during this podcast.
Here's a link about the Rolling Stones Concert mentioned in the podcast, and here are a couple of videos of different kinds of Mosh Pits:
- Wall of Death: this is an extreme example of a Metal Mosh Pit. I recommend you mute the sound to observe it, since the quality of the audio isn't very good, and the music sucks too.
- Ska Punk Circle: my favorite kind of pit, the Circle Pit allows for easy movement in and out of the pit, and there is very little hitting. This is the pit for those who just like dancing and having a good time.
