Hello! First lets get some things straight. If you do not like Marilyn Manson, Insane Clown Posse,slipknot, Nickelback, Slayer, The Used, Three Days Grace, Linkin Park or Lamb Of God do not bother to read any further. Although I am as young as I am I do love Metal and have been in the pit (Manson is very rude if you stage dive). I like it because "If you put a record on it is not going to yell at you for the way you dress, it is going to make you feel better about it"- Marilyn Manson. I will try and keep you updated on my boring life. Tonight I am going to Ozzfest. Next Saturday I am seeing Halloween. And that is all I know. The ozzfest last night was amazing! At the second stage I was standing close to the stage and when hatebreed was on the main singer screamed "fight, fight, fight" and a huge circle opened around me and like 30 fat topless men came running at me full speed and at the last moment a person I did not see ramed me and I went flying back into the crowd. Just then I saw a razor blade fly by and when I stod up I saw it hanging aroud a mans neck and I asked him where he got it and as he said I maid it myself he took it off and put it around my neck. He introuced me to both of his girl friends and we stayed together and moshed and what not. Once the second stage closed we went to the manin stage and stood on the other side of the hill and every time a woman walked by we yelled "tits, tits, tits" untill they flashed them. Once Static-X came on he offered me a ticket in sixth row from the stage and I took but first we had to ditch girl friend one. Once we did that we took our seats and enjoyed the rest of static-X(there was a sod fight during this), when lamb of god made fun of the people on the hill and the water and confettie poured on the crowd by Ozzy! All of this was possibel because hatebreed started a moshpit and I bumped into a man named Dallas. THANK YOU DALLAS!
CONCERT TIPS:
1. buy cheap lawn tickets so you can get in, then once the show starts find a section you want to sit it front row. Find a group going into that section and fallow them if this does not work talk to the security gaurds and if you are friendly they might give you their ticket because every worker gets one ticket of their choise and usaly it is close. Sometimes if the person you are talking to has that power they will get you backstage to show you the bands "equipment". Also if the event has more that one band- like ozzfest- some people buy close up tickets just for their favorite band and then leave after that so after each performance stand by the section you want and if you are lucky a person will hand you tickets.
2. If you go to a concert with a friend and dont know the music listen to a bunch of songs. When and if there is a moshpit listen to the music and wait for "jumps", so you dont look retarded when a "jump" comes up and you dont stop and run in to people and get into a real fight. A "jump" is when the music has lots of drum/gitar scales and throughout most of the scales the moshers will be going in a giant circle really fast and there will be a sudden pause in the song during this pause every one stoppes and runns the other way.
3. If and when you are in the pit and you see some one fall it is not "cool" to leave them there to get tramppeled, most people will stop to pick the person up and see if there okay. Remember the point of moshing is to have agressive fun ( get a few bruses maybe a small cut) not to kill each other. Most of you may be confused because of a video on youtube of a lamb of god suicied line. In the video a mentaly retarded man was killed by a suicide line. During most suicide lines people who want to be agressive get into the center of the circle right before the line colapses and most do die because of the force. But my point is that there is a differance between a moshpit and a suicide line. Moshpits are to the music. Suicide lines are for agression and it is where the people line up immbetween a song and when the song starts the people run at each other and if you are in the middel you get crushed. I have been in a suicide line. I have ben in a moshpit. And once I stood in the center of a suicide line, it was not fun. One side hit me before the other and I was literly carried in front of them and meracuelsey I slid immbetween two people.
4. If you find somthing of value on the ground (shoe, wallet, glasses, shirt, cd, ect.) Hold it up high untill your arm gets tired. If no one claims it by then place it on the ground where it will not get trampled. If you hold it up long enough for some one to claim it you usualy can keep it if is not a shoe or wallet but most people are nice and let you keep the money in the wallet. Pleas do not keep anything unless the person tells you to because it is a nightmare trying to find shoes- I threw mine onto the stage so 3 inches of blood would throw them back into the crowd at ozzfest just to see how long it takes to find them. I found one three hours later jammed under the boardwalk, and never found the other. That is why I wear cheep shoes.
