Old school headbanger here. So that pretty much includes 80s and early 90s stuff. When grunge came, headbanging metal fun died and depression took over. |

I'm a headbanger and when i break my head i'll bang my neck instead. (taken from not the nine o clock news). Sorry i'll be sensible now... I sort of am but then again i sort of arn't if you get what i meen. |

I didn't know Good Charlotte had head banging/mosh pits? I thought they'd have a 'putting more make-up on' pit, tee-hee. Are they touring Australia at the moment? |
| debmercury 18.02.2005 08:38 |

I kicked a guy in the head once. There was no music, though. Does that count? |

A mosh pit at Good Charlotte??? Are you fucking kidding me? What's next, a mosh pit at the Yanni show? Stage-diving at the Neil Diamond concert? I'd like put the "pit" at Good Charlotte up against a Crowbar or an 80's Slayer pit....there would be death, destruction, and carnage. |

Why are moshpits considered cool? Waste of time in my opinion. Headbangings alright though, especially to Def Leppard who were the masters. |
| jasen101 18.02.2005 14:37 |
i think moshpits suck...and ive been to every outdoor concert event to come to my town...warped tour, edgefest, lalapalooza...all i can remember is having fat chicks' asses coming down and embedding into my mouth from above...being kicked in the face numerous times, being pushed into some fat guy's armpit, and being bitten by some wierd chick when i wouldn't budge from the bar! Dude!!! The best concerts i have been to have been concerts that you can jump up and down and really feel the energy of the place without pushing into each other all the time...like when i saw No Doubt last time...that was perfect. |
| Mr.Jingles 18.02.2005 14:51 |
I went to see Metallica 2 years ago and I remember watching this skinny teen dude going inside a moshpit with a bunch of muscular huge guys who could easily fit the profile of an ex-convict. Needless to say he got his ass kicked really bad, but the more he got hurt the more he felt like going back inside the mosh-pit. Frankly I don't understand what's the fun of getting your ass kicked in a mosh-pit. I'm gonna have to agree with Jansen by saying that going to concerts like No Doubt and jumping up and down without being pushed around is the best way to enjoy a concert. |

You cutted...you...cutted...no. No excuse for that. By my judgement mosh pits don't make sense to me. If I wanted to be hit in the face and have other peoples sweat on me I'd have a hooker run on a treadmill for two hours and have her smash me with a crowbar. |

I went to see White Zombie in 1995. That was superb. All the fans used to run around in a big circle. I was right at the front and got a plectrum off Sean Yseult. Sexy Bitch. |

Best band ever? Even better than Queen? I have to admit that Pyromania, Hysteria, and Adrenalize were superb albums. But Def Lep hasn't showed a lot of impressive stuff ever since. Euphoria and X were acceptable in their own terms. |

"I'm a headbanger and when i break my head i'll bang my girl instead" (lyrics from Not the nine o clock news 1979). Now seriously. Who here likes Iron Maiden. They have an amazing guitarist. |
| English Bowman 22.02.2005 10:42 |
Maiden are (were) great, as were Leppard, but better than Queen? No way. I have a great year of gigs lined up so far; Jan - Circus Of Horrors Feb - Gary Mullens & The Works Mar - Thunder, Judas Priest supported by The Scorpians Apr - Magnum May - Queen+ Paul Rogers Nov - Alice Cooper supported by Twisted Sister All I have to do now is get the other 6 months sorted. December will probably be SAS Band and I know that Fish is touring in April / May so I'll try to get along and see him. |

Professional head banger here ! Good Charlotte. Mosh pit ? Behave ! 12-15 year olds getting sweaty and spreading juvenile funguses. The best pit I have ever seen was at a Chimera gig. The lead singer is nick named Moses. Why I hear you ask? Well he divides the arena up into 2 halves with say a 20 ft clear path running right through the centre. They then play their heaviest track then instructs each half to run into the other.! It was like a scene from Braveheart I tell ya. Bodies everywhere !! :) Much soreness after Pantera at the Marquee too. (Rest in peace Diamond) Even an iffy neck on the Sunday of the Convention. ;) Must be getting old ! |

I saw Motorhead at the Ipswich Gaumont in 1980 on the Ace Of Spades tour. Fantastic gig, but Couldn't hear a thing for three days afterwards. Does that mean I qualify ? |
