Flipsides - Sucked alot, Woman was a horrible singer, music was bad, pit sucked.
Real McKenzies - Kicked fucking ass, The pit was huge, the sound was fast and loud, I got punched in the jaw during this.
Rise Against - Also kicked fucking ass, faster and louder than McKenzies, the pit was even crazier too, alot of fun.
Mad Caddies - What can I say? They owned, everyone was skanking and havin' a good old time, Me and my friend got a huge skankin line forumed in the pit.
I had a great time tonight, the pit's were amazing, I'm hurting alot, and I reek of other peoples sweat, and weed. I'm going to go shower now.
P.S. I just realised I spelt formed forumed...I'm way too tired.
I'm hoping to go to this one when the time comes... dunno if it'll happen yet:
Friday, 3-21 8pm
Voodoo Glow Skulls
Tsunami Bomb
Count The Stars
Spit Valves
Third Grade Scuffle
The Voodoo Glow Skulls and Tsunami Bomb are pretty good. Dunno bout the rest...
P.S. The Green Door is a TEENY TINY venue. There is no backstage. It is cool. [ 03-13-2003: Message edited by: Veruca Salt ]
I have no sympathy for them. Though I really wasn't surprised. AAR are big enough around here to probably sell out the Diamond Ballroom (like 2x or 3x bigger than the Green Door, probably more). I know that's where they played when the Riddlin' Kids and Homegrown were tagging along.
Right now my plans are: theSTART on the 14th, hopefully Voodoo Glow Skulls/Tsunami Bomb on the 21st, and if I'm really lucky, Disturbed/Taproot/Chevelle/Unloco on April 8. I don't think that last one will happen, though. I'll probably end up spending too much at theSTART's merch stand. ¬_¬

I'd also like to see Sleater-Kinney open for Pearl Jam, but just thinking about the ticket prices makes me wince.

Am I old because I think mosh pits are the stupidest thing ever, and how much you enjoyed a performance shouldn't be based on how badly you got your ass kicked?
Nope, you're not old. I don't really like mosh pits either.

Here in the UK, a skank is basically a female whore.
What the hell is it over there?

So what's skanking?
A literal translation would be "whoring".

A sleep deprived Doomie stammered:
Skanking would be a type of dancing.
the type of dancing where you WHORE?
Frankly, I don't see what's fun about skanking OR moshing.
That is all.

ACES! Another post by Led:
What is the point of a mosh pit? See how many people you can hurt?
The only people I ever set out to "hurt" in a mosh pit are those that intentionaly set out to hurt others and ESPECIALLY those that do so even when the others are obviously not enjoying it.
edit: To clarify... in the above example where dude said he got punched in the jaw... If it was just a flailed fist, no biggie, but if it was someone delibertly drawing back and sucker punching someone then they need to be taken out.
For the most part though most pits I've been through are just people burning off steam in a borderline fighting slam dance kind of way. Good stuff sometimes, if you're into that aggressive kinda stuff.
