Moshing question:

Well I know supposedly Northern California/Bay Area Mosh Pits are known for the "circle pits" which consist of the pit itself, plus an outercircle that is constantly movie, plus the ring of people on the outside pushing and bumping people back in and shit.

 

Are the different styles really a territorial thing, or do pits pretty much work the same way where you all live.

 

I am mainly asking cause at just about every concert, the band members always make comments about "Classic Bay Area Circle pits"

I hate hardcore pits. Jujitsu should be left in the dojo.

 

I like the sweaty heaving tumult that's commonly found in brutal death. Circle pits are cool, but only if there's enough room.

I do think that they're territorial. Boston is more of a punch and kick kind of pit (at least it used to be; I haven't been in a real pit in about 6 years). I've never seen a circle pit here.

 

But I think both NoCal and AoO are more into the metal scene than I am. I'm thinking more of a hardcore scene.
