Tell us about it, so we can sympathize.

I'm not sure about moshing, but I do nosh quite a bit.

Man, I was in San Fran this summer and there was a big alt. concert in Union
Square, everyone was moshing.  I did it for a little while, it was a blast.

Define *mosh*?

To dive off of the stage at a concedrt into a crowd of people whop carry you
around, or to slam dance.

I think I'd rather nosh, then.

Gosh.

well, it's reall fun!

Slam dancing KICKS Bafoongi!

"Bafoongi"?  Slang sure changes alot in four years.
I doubt I know what it means.

Just a joke w/odie.
!@#$%^&*

Thank you for that intelligento commento!

your welcome mr. vidarelcome.

Uffen-Z Daen-Z

yeah.

Yup.

yep-zee-doozers!

Uff Da!

re 0-18: perhaps this should be linked to enigma?  It has little to
do with anything, other than a place to put more semi-rude noises.

Hmm?

Slam Dancing "Moshing" is evil.  All Moshers must be killedededededed!

uh, not.

Get back on track, Nordic Track

That makes the transistion to cross country skiING

That it does.

Hey, are we talking about moshING or skiING here?
I ope moshING! Moshing is SO much better!

yeah, of course we're all agreed that moshing is boffo.Slam dancing
at a friend's party is pretty cool, but it's definitely much
better in a larger venue.  When you're caught up in a crowd like
that, you just let go and get tossed around, only exerting enough energy to
keep from getting your face broken.  It was pure brownian
motion--but I may be over-intellectualizing.

I like ... uh, maybe I shouldn't say it in a public conf..

How about ski moshing?!

I moshed once with bdp. It was after Michigan beat Arkansas in the Final 
Four last year. We moshed with over 1000 drunk and dazed college students as
police, armed to the hilt, stood idly by and watched. It was WAY cool!
In fact, it was where South University intersects with Church Street!

MoshING kicks, that is why i entered the item. What really sucks is people
who talk about moshING, then are afraid to do it at concerts and stuff.
I admit, mosh pits can be dangerous, but most people are nice if you get hurt.

cool.

Vidar wants to kick all drifters asses.
Vidar decides against it and kicks a bucket of ice water.  The ice water flies
into the air and lands on Vidar, cooling off his high temper.

I went to the Pearl Jam concert and I got lifted by the crowd and thrown 
ove rby the stage!

i think somepeople are missing hte 'moshing' point, or mabye i need to make a
new item called 'moshING at concerts', but to me it means dancing wild and free
in a tight macked group of folks who are falling and slipping , and lifting,
all crushed into  as small a space as possible--to MUSIC.....  sometimes, it
gentile, sometimes it's bone snapping, but Always fun.  i believe that it does
not require being on the crowd (this is commonly called crowd surfing or satge
diving) but rather a form of dace.   punk pits rule.  beachhead, lucky haskind,
tiger 100 may 7 or 14 at commie.

Before you do that, learn to hit Enter/Return after the 80th character on
each line.  It would make it easier to read your responses, and that would be
quite helpful.  It would help some of us avoid eye strain.

Why has moshing gotten so much attention lately?  It's not new like the media
(and many others) seem to think.  I actually think its alot safer than it
was in the late 70s-early 80s when everyone wore spiked ankle braclets and
wristbands.  I have scars all around my legs from way back when.
(But its still ALOT of fun!)

Funnt thing is , that as the years go by my desire to join the moshing
masses diminishes. It's odd, but I'd rather have a beer.
Guess I'm nobecoming an old fart. The kinda people I used to shit on.
Damn!

The most presice definition of moshING I have heard to date is "Square-
Dancing in a BLender."
