I shouldn't need to say this, but the "dancing" ("picking up change" and all that idiotic crap) that hardcore kids do at concerts is possibly the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen. Disco dancers look more dignified.

Yeah, and just randomly slamming into one another is a more sensible solution to the mosh pit.

Regardless, you're going to look like an idiot no matter what you do.

Randomly slamming into one another may be painful and can't be the smartest thing to do, but it doesn't really look stupid and it at least serves the purposes of 1) energizing people, 2) satisfying aggression.

"Dancing" to hardcore music, on the other hand, is basically just a way to look like a goon. I seriously doubt that looking like a goon makes the music any more enjoyable (as if there were something to build on in the first place).

Being a hardcore listener of some 17 years standing , I prefer the old days when it was just slamming as opposed to all the kickboxing/martial arts demonstration that goes on these days.
Yes, anyone slamming looks like a goon, but one of the fundamentals of hardcore is that is doesnt matter- you can do whatever you want, thrash around like an idiot and look like a fool...THATS THE POINT. You should feel comfortable expressing yourself anyway you want, and not expected to be judged on your dancing skills. Its all about freeform self expression, baby.

What's this picking up change thing you're talking about? I seriously don't understand.

And I don't go to concerts to feed off agression. I go so I can listen to some good music.

"What's this picking up change thing you're talking about? "

Hardcore kids have notoriously baggy jeans/pockets. Large amounts of change inevitably fall on the dance floor. Each gig has a designated collector. Its a bigger earner than ebay for some.

DDR is about testing one's dexterity or doing something when a good song is going on... around everyone that cares to look i guess. Also good for an exercise i heard

Agreed, you look like an idiot no matter what you do. Might as well do it how YOU want to do it.

-Ever considered enrolling in spelling classes? 'Head Shrinker'?? Did we just go back to the fifties?

I meant you should go to a psychiatrist, and what does "head shrinker" have to do with the 50's? I've heard that term alot, I must live in 50's land.

I honestly don't mind the music all that much, just the weiner scenesters who have turned it into a way of life.
