true for the most part but The Roots live shows are still some of the best shows ive attended.
 
honestly to the guy seeing metallica. if someone starts a pit, it's because they are being douchebags. most Metallica fans can't even walk withoutcanes anymore man.

and physics, you speak the truth, Municipal Waste is a fun thrash band. nothing beats blow up sharks and boogie boards in a circle pit haha.

but Converge has to have the scareiest pits I have ever seen outside of japan. Converge fans want nothing less than blood and when Jacob Bannon(lead singer)tells a guy he is gonna strangle him with the mic cord if he tugs it one more time, whilst weighing 100 pounds soaking wet, I have to believe they are forreal. amazing band none the less.

Never been a pit kind of guy,I am the guy on the outside shoving aholes back cuz they keep kicking me in the head and acting stupid.I play enforcer basicallyfor the people upfront.

And to the guy wanting to see mastodon,I know how you feel,wanted to make the drive last month for my bday to see them and kylesa. but fl gets no love thistime around.Mastodon has just gotten to big for their own good I am afraid.

I had no %$!%@+$ idea this was gonna happen, seeing as it was my first time, so it caught me completely off guard. I had this one dude, who was maybe half a foot smaller than me, with girly long high., were talking %$!%@+$ waist long, so as the curtains started rising, that pushing *$@# caught me off guard, so I instinctively put my hands on his back, and started pushing him, trying to get some breathing room. A couple seconds later, I see him screaming *$@# at me, so I scream back something along the longs of "++%% you %+@$!@*%#%%@# *!*, get your $%+ outta here if you can't handle it." Turns outta I ripped a $%*##!+% of hair off of his head, because as it stopped, I realized I was carrying a damn filthy hair ball in my hand, and had a *$@# load of hair stuck to my sweaty arms. Dudes scalp must've been bleeding!

metallica is the greatest metal band ever and even better live. Just peep their justice tour videos on youtube and what you whats up

I cant stand some of the newer bands that only screams and play their music extremely loud.

The only newer metal bands I can stand is Lam of God, because their lyrics actually make sense.

but then again I dont know much about metal, but I know what is good music once I hear it.

Once at a concert I was with my homey and a mosh breaks out I get elbowed in the mouth by some random dude next thing I know I'm stomping dude on the floor and punching his homey he busted my lip
ohwell.gif
...woke up the next morning only to see I was at my homeys house with a bloody rag next to my head turns out dude didn't take to kindly to the stomping so he punched me in the back of the head with some brass knuckles and I passed out nothing serious but I was bleeding a bit...can't wait for another one

This man speaks the truth. I'll listen to rap every now and then but Metal is near and dear to my heart and small venue concerts kick serious but. MoshPits are definitely appreciated. I just got tickets to the Rockstar Energy Mayhem festival so I will be expecting to be in one of these.

im going to classify "moshing" or "wall of death" as one of the most stupid, pointless, hilarious things ever. Does anybody else see howridiculous this looks?

Hey lets show how much we enjoy the music by trying to kill each other, it'll be great!

I HOPE that no one is moshing at a Metallica concert...

Maybe I am old fashion, but if you want to run into...elbow...and then punch your friend in the face...why don't you do it in your living room...FOR FREE! I prefer to go the a concert and, well...watch the band and listen to the music...

Funny thing is that I went to a Chris Cornell concert last week, and even during Rusty Cage their was no pit...strange...but, nice...love to be at a concert that is full of true fans and not people there because it is a "scene"

I've been to one rock concert, which is theSlipknot tour their currently doing, and trust when I saw I am a true fan of their music. I started listening to their stuff in 2000, after their firstofficial release with Roadrunner, but before Iowa...yet that doesn't mean I can't appreciate the energy/moshing, and the music at the sametime...it's a package deal. Get off the floor and buy some seated tickets/get further back from the stage if your only there for the music.

I would be unable to pick between those albums

I love me a good rock show but I hate all these people with their hardcore dancing ALL THE TIME and just pushing just to push. Hardcore dancing is cool duringbreakdowns and what not but not during every part of every song.

thats not fun at all. brass knuckles aint cool. you know what happens to people who get caught using brass knuckles? they get jumped and getbeaten half to death. I never experience it before but my friend who used to intern for island records been to numberous concerts seen this many times, peepswho bring weapons in to venues get destroyed.

and I hate people moshing. especially when you are
pimp.gif
and al you want todo is relax and listen to good music then people gotta give you problems.
 
^^i know

who the hell moshes to a metal ballad?

people were really starting to piss me off during megadeth's a tout le mond last year

2 GUYS EVEN RAN UP ON STAGE DURING THAT SONG AND GRABBED MUSTAINE TO TAKE A FREAKIN PICTURE!!!!

i think one of them managed to grab a hold of his guitar
smh.gif


needless to say, i heard they got their %!!*+ kicked

mustaine left the stage right after that happened. then almost everyone else. chris broderick was the only one left on stage. once the song was finished heleft too

they did come back after like 10 min, obviously disappointed, but %!@! man
 
I like both those groups Metallica a tad bit more because they were the first group I ever listened to but Pantera used to beat the crap out of Metallica whenit came to live shows. I'm glad to say I got to see Pantera before they disbanded and man they were crazily awesome. Pits were crazy and everyone was intoit. They involved the fans a lot just check out some of those home videos. The thing with Metallica concerts is a lot of the people that go aren't metalfans but just fans of the band itself so you have all kinds of people going. A friend of mine told me some people sit down and wait for Enter Sandman to playthen they leave. Thats just rediculous. Iron Maiden can throw a insane concert, you wouldn't expect moshing but for 50 year old dudes they still kick butt.As for Municipal Waste Physicx knows whats up. Slayer, Napalm Death, Testament, Cannibal Corpse are also great to see live. There is just to many groups toname.
