Guest kingkamala Report post Posted April 24, 2003 I'm pretty sure with death metal fans on this board, you'll get a lot weirder stories then mine. About six months ago I went to an SR-71 concert at a small all-ages club. So the place was jam packed with kids 12-16 and a small smattering of twenty-somethings. Anyway in front of the next to the screaming girls, is this fifty something year old guy wearing a leather jacket. The guy was pumping his fists in the air throughout SR-71's set like he was seeing fuckin' Judas Priest. Anyway SR-71 plays their second "hit" Tommorow and a mosh pit starts, the middle aged SR-71 fan has obviously lived under a rock and never seen a mosh pit before and is appalled. The guy starts yelling at the kids to stop the god damn violence before they hurt anyone. Anyway SR-71 plays a few more songs and then does an encore. They're playing Right Now and another bigger mosh pit starts. One of the moshers gets shoved into the middle aged guy and the middle aged SR-71 fanatic just decks the poor kid. The kid had to only be 14/15, but I guess the middle aged SR-71 guy didn't want to be interrupted rocking out to SR-71 and flirting with 13 year old girls.

Guest Incandenza Report post Posted April 24, 2003 At a Fishbone show a couple of years ago, dirty old comedian Blowfly was the opening act. I was near the front of the stage, and, standing to my right, was a girl who couldn't have been more than 14. With a man I assume was her father standing right behind her, Blowfly kept directing lewd comments at the girl. Maybe it was senility that temporarily impaired his judgment, but after a couple of minutes he mumbled something like "you're way too young" and stopped.

Guest Youth N Asia Report post Posted April 24, 2003 I was at a Stone's concert at the Silverdome. Some dumb bastard got drunk and started dancing on one of the rails on the 2nd tier and fell to his death...I didn't see the fall but they rolled the body out right past me as I was leaving.

Guest swan Report post Posted April 24, 2003 I was at a Black Metal concert and the band cut off a sheep's head and the fucking thing flew into the crowd and fractured my fucking skull. Seriously, I was at a Mercyful Fate concert. There was this goofy little rat looking guy who was all into it and saying how he was going to get King Diamond. He just kept slamming beers. Later on he jumps on stage and tries to tackle king Diamond. He trips on King's riser and then procedes to get the holy hell beaten out of him to the right of the stage . Funny as shit. Another time at Lolapalozza 96, it was held at a dirt race track, there was this dude flipping around like a fish out of water. His buddy his telling everyone: He has taken the most acid I have ever seen man. Pretty fucked up. At a Metallica/Danzig/Suicidal T's outdoor concert in 94 some dude and chick were fuckin in the middle of the crowd. At an industrial show, Chicago band Greyline were playing. The lead singer asks the crowd who went to catholic school. Me and some of my friends did so we yell "Yeah!!! We did!!!" The singer looks down at us, blows fire at us and says "This song is dedicated to you fuckers." During the song he sliced his body up with razor blades. I bought thier demo after the show.

Guest CoreyLazarus416 Report post Posted April 24, 2003 When I saw The Misfits (well, just Jerry Only with Marky Ramone and Dez from Black Flag) in December, this one uber-hot punk chick asked me after the show when Jerry was signing autographs if she's seen me before. ...if she wasn't, like, in her 20's and had a boyfriend, I would've hit on her...and then gotten my ass kicked... Yeah, I don't have too many weird concert stories. Well, at LocoBazooka '02, during Black Label Society's set, one of those huge long plastic containers people drink beer out of hit Zakk right in the face mid-song, and Zakk kept playing. And some kid's show fell off, so we were throwing the shoe around in the pit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest notJames Report post Posted April 24, 2003 Back in '93, I saw Green Day at the old City Gardens in Trenton. Low ceiling, dead of winter, slush everywhere on the floor. A fight broke out just to the left of the stage, and in the middle of the song, Billie Joe took off his guitar, jumped in the middle, and kicked the shit out of the kid that started the whole thing. Similar story: the Muffs were playing at Maxwells in Hoboken, back when they were still a quartet. I forget who they were opening for. Some guy in the front kept annoying lead singer Kim Shattuck, who happened to be wearing the longest, sharpest stiletto heels I'd ever seen. Needless to say, she put those heels to work on this guy in short order, never skipping a beat during whatever song she was playing. But probably the weirdest thing I ever saw was a mosh pit starting at a They Might Be Giants show. Not exactly the correct venue for it, no? Anyway, the Johns quickly stopped the set and warned the moshers of a quick removal if their behaviour persisted. The crowd concurred, and proceeded to pelt the perpetrators with a plethora of plunder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest gangsteruwa Report post Posted April 24, 2003 I saw Dillinger Escape Plan at Monsterfest in Burlington, VT, and somewhere during their set, a naked guy came out of no where and jumped into the audience. I have never seen a crowd disperse so quickly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B. Brian Brunzell 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2003 At OzzFest '98, my friend Kevin got his glasses smashed by some raving drunk. Kevin's brother Jeff tracked the guy down(while Kevin was bleeding) and beat the bejeezus out of this guy. When Jeff came back to where Kevin and I were sitting, he said "fuck, I think there's a rock in my shoe or something." He took his shoe off and three teeth fell to the ground out of his shoe. I learned that day to NEVER FUCK WITH JEFF GRIMM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Edwin MacPhisto Report post Posted April 24, 2003 At a Nine Inch Nails show four or five years back, I encountered a fat man wearing a red silk teddy and a big red fur coat. He'd open the coat up like a knock-off watch salesman, and inside were taped pills, joints, and bags of all sorts of other drugs. Kids would just run up, grab them, take them, and then he'd pat them on the back and call himself The Good Protector. It was...interesting. At the same show, a guy who must have been about 40 tried to crowd surf. Us angsty 10th graders were very confused. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest mw679 Report post Posted April 24, 2003 I've posted this before, but what the hell... At a show in Boston, General Admission crowd, Reveille was playing and this one chick was surfing around. She couldn't have been more than 5' tall and 100 pounds soaking wet. Anyway, as she's surfing along, a huge pit breaks out and there is one guy who's like 6'8'' 260, looked like a friggin linebacker, the girl gets surfed over by the pit, the big dude grabs her and tosses her across the crowd. I swear it looked like she was a stone getting skipped acoss a pond or something, she ended up flying into the crowd and hitting the back of her head on the guardrail. Luckily, security was there and pulled her up and over. I'm pretty sure she got carted off to the hospital. Also, the same show, some kid was in the pit and got punched square in the nose, he was gushing blood, yet, didn't seem to notice and carried on with the pit until the song finished.

Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted April 24, 2003 I saw Pantera and Anthrax once, and there was a drunk man, shirtless, (In the middle of February in Indiana) walking up to random people, SCREAMING things like "THIS IS WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT MOTHERFUCKERS!" Later that night, I saw the very same man up front, with the rest of the bruisers, and he got tossed up in the air to crowdsurf, and just started PUKING all over himself and all of the people carrying him. He just rode across the crowd, at a pretty good rate of speed, spewing vile beer vomit all over a 3 or 4 foot radius, eventually he got dropped like a hot potato, right on his skull. I lost track of him after that. I saw Megadeth once, and the place usually had a minor league hockey rink, so it was basically squares of Particle board, loosely held together on top of the ice. Let's just say the Icecapades and a mosh pit aren't a smart mixture. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest NoCalMike Report post Posted April 24, 2003 At Ozzfest 2000, during the 2nd stage opening band there was a tiny pit forming and I was all ready to jump in when I noticed that the white dude in there had a tattoo of a swaztika on the back of his head. At Pantera right before Pantera came on two guys were about to fight when a 3rd guy that had nothing to do with it just cold-cocked one of the guys and he went unconcious. At Deicide I was up front and when Glen Benton came on stage he poured some his Jack Daniels into my mouth. At Slayer/Pantera Extreme Steel Tour...there was more titty flashing than I have seen on a Mardi Gras tape. Just in general, I think it is funny how the hardcore kids try to participate in Pits, and then start doing wannabee karate moves and shit, and once the Pit gets filled they just get thrown around like rag dolls until the retreat for the rest of the night.

Guest kingkamala Report post Posted April 24, 2003 All this mosh pit talk reminded me of something else I saw at the SR-71 show. In the middle of the mosh pit, their was this one kid who did a maniacal laugh while the moshers moshed around him. That's all the kid did. Oh at this radio station concert, I sat next to this old lady( Had to be about 65-70) who was obsessed with Train. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rising up out of the back seat-nuh 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2003 Probably at reading last year, when the Dillinger Escape Plans singer took a shit in a towel, wrapped it up and threw it into the middle of the pit. Needless to say I got out the way sharpish. I didn't really like em that much anyway. Also at Reading 2000, Daphne and Celeste, the worlds worst pop group, a pair of trendy lolita kids, got booked on the main stage just before RATM. Suffice to say they got many many bottles of piss chucked at them. Far more funny, however, is that they also got bottled out of the signing tent. Honourable mentions: Getting dived on by the bassist from 1 minute silence AND the dj from Slipknot at the same gig The parkinsons (an old-school punk band) singer climbing on top of a speaker stack, stripping off then playing guitar with his dick Ikara Colt getting the whole crowd to rush the stage and drink their rider with them. And, of course, any time someone gets in the pit and doesn't know how to act, so everyone beats the fuck out of them. Ahhhh, happy days Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest raptor Report post Posted April 25, 2003 After reading these, I wonder this: Who the fuck moshes at a SR-71 show? Anywho... I don't have a weird story, only a cool one. Right before Our Lady Peace played "Whatever" Raine said "this is for Chris Benoit." I think I was the only person in the audience who knew what that meant, but I still marked like a motherfucker.

Guest The Amazing Rando Report post Posted April 25, 2003 Ozzfest 2k1... Pittsburgh, PA... Slipknot comes on stage and by the middle of the set has the crowd going fucking crazy...lawn fires and all kinds of stuff...so then people in the lawn start ripping dirt/grass clods out of the lawn and start throwing them towards the seats...so the people in the seats throw them back and a war is started...seats vs. lawn.... plastic bottles, grass, dirt, clothing, anything people could find... I was hit in the face with a mostly full plastic Coke bottle and ended up with dirt and grass stuck in my hair... but it was fucking awesome... the first ten minutes of Marilyn Manson's set nobody even gave a shit... then I puked in a trash can after Black Sabbath did their encore...
