The Formation Of A Moshpit

The Moshpit Musical

And so it begins the darkness descends
the ritual will come soon 
at the end you will be friends

The band enters to the roar of the crowd
They begin to sing although others say
“It’s Too Loud!!”

Screamo and metal too much to handle
tonight I’m the Emo the typical vandal

The Music Transforms

The music is thumping
as every hit of the drum
passes into our bodies
The guitar is electric
every note tickling our eardrum
The lighting strobing
Slowing our rabid movements
My body is pulsating
How invigorating!

And So It Begins!

A few veterans create a hole and it slowly grows
Glances between the predators…. enter the pros
Jumping and head banging waiting for the time
Enter if you dare the music hits its prime

Rushing, crushing, elbows and arms fly
jumping, diving willingness to die
Sweat becomes you
Music is your oxygen
Knocked to the floor by a master of the craft
Raised and locked horns as rock is your path

Stage two of the mosh a circle starts to spin
One anti-clockwise
Spinning on the clockwise within

Faster and faster passing blurry faces
Pushed to the floor
then trying to regain your places

This moshpit marvel
The bond between fans
Lift up your lighters
Raise up your hands

Scream until your throat no longer says your name
Bang your head so that for days your neck feels the strain
If you bleed from a hit just wear the blood proud

A middle finger to you all that say

    IT’S TOO LOUD!!!

For we are the moshers
The rockers
The band
Our instruments are our bodies
Maybe one day you can understand

I'm never going into one of those after the incident
where I punched someone that appeared to be a guy
But was actually a girl :/ whom also got her nose broken by
My punch. it was merely a accident, or was it? Lol
Naw I'm joking it really was a accident :)

Ahh. I remember when I used to go to these shows. I loved how you could feel the bass vibrating your organs. F*****G AWESOME. I was always scared of getting my teeth knocked out though. I was a pansy. =p

Love it... like always. Keep it up.

This ROCKS!! Brilliant explanation of the extraordinary life-force that ignites whenever we half-wit humans manage to CONNECT.
