Should there be Moshpits at GNR concerts?

[DirtySanchez]

Moshpits are for Goths who love bands like Bullet For My Valentine or? Korn but not G'N'R, when l was at the Glasgow show some guy was jumping up and down and shoving people, he must have been stoned or pissed out his nut but a well packed punch on the back of his head from me sure calmed him down , he must of thought that he was going to see some shitty Goth Band

i really wouldn't be too proud about pulling such a violent meat head move. goths??? you really have no clue 

apparently, after reading this thread, i guess most gn'r fans cant really handle being near a pit, too bad. I would point out again that the type of pits most people seem to be describing are not what i would call a "real" pit, but more like a bunch of drunks just looking to cause trouble which i wouldn't really want to be around either.

no doubt while i admit real pits are too much for me...they still add a dangerous element to seeing a live show....

I saw pantera twice from the floor...no wait i survived 2 pantera concerts and i'd do it all over again if i could seeing a concert any other way is just not the same

Paradise City seems like the only GNR song you could really "mosh" to. And I did. lol.

i think people should just start stabbing moshers... thats one way to eliminate that shit.

That was a real fucking intelligent and positive thing to say now then, wasn't it?        

Perhaps I should just stab you right in your fucking eyeball and see how you like that shit, hey fuckhead!!!       

calm down, killer... that steel collarbone must really mess with you head, huh?

look at ya, "i say fuckhead cuz axl does and he's teh cool" 

[Scabbie]

Hell yeah!

Have you ever seen the UYI live videos. That Japanese crowd looks as though they are bored out of their minds.

I was only trying to make a point dude. It's never a good idea to encourage that kind of shit because, believe it or not, there's some really fucked-up people in this world, that would take your suggestion, in the most literal sense. That ends up ruining it for the rest of us who are just there to have a good time and aren't really fucked-up.

 

And no, the steel collarbone hasn't messed with my head.     Yet, that is.      

[Jeramy]

lol, no i don't encourage stabbing anyone by no means.... i waited in line for 5 or 6 hours before the doors opened to get a spot at the front of the stage, but by the time sebastian played youth gone wild everyone was all liquored up and things were starting to get rough.  then when gnr took the stage all the larger drunk people were pushing and shoving the smaller people (including girls) like they came to fight instead witness one of the best live performances ever go down in history.  me being 6' and 140 i had no choice but to give up my spot or literally get my skinny ass crushed.  it was a great show, no doubt the best concert i've ever seen but it would've been so much cooler if people weren't trying to hurt others

No doubt. Hurting people isn't cool at all.

Moshing is just so....trailer park.

[GNRforever10]

Let me see........... Guns N roses- Worlds most dangerous ''Bad ass''' band. As said in the music encyclopedia.
 Axl used to jump in crowds often and surf and etc. Why not get a little rowdy crowd surf and mosh some?
I don't think anyone should get in fights but nothing is wrong with unity and surfing and bouncing around with your fans slam dancing , jumping, moshing, head banging should be all good, for a awsome dirty, real, tough, dangerous rock/metal band. GNR makes in your face intense music anyone says different doesn't understand human frustrations and heart. GNR is a hype band lets get rowdy like Donnington, Ritz and etc. as long as no one is getting killed I'm sure your tough enough to go home with a huge smile from a great concert and a bruise or two of honor and enjoyment
