slam dancing 

Slam dancing started when punk rock music started. It is the original form of "moshing". Back in the mid 70's and in the 80's punk rockers slammed danced. There wasn't any hardcore violence involved. Ask anyone who actually lived through the era of punk rock and they will tell you the truth about slam dancing. "Moshing" is a new term for slam dancing but isn't slam dancing at all. Slam dancing basically consisted of jumpin around and not really doing any actual dance moves. It wasn't purposly violent dancing.
"Hey look at those scenester kids "moshing" and thinkin they are slam dancing."

slam dancing 

Form of dancing brought about by early punk and thrash bands, now mainly used in the presence of modern hardcore and metalcore. Unlike a general mosh pit, slam dancing actually shows signs of enjoying the music and having a brain. By using kicks and punches, the dance is a way to let off violent energy without actually hurting anybody.
There's too many nu-metal kids grinding on each other's bodies for us to go slam dancing.

slam dancing 

A form of "dancing" used by pre-pubescent scenesters and older emo/scene eunuchs alike. These people are not true music fans, they go to shows to be seen by their friends. This display of jackassery annoys the piss out of true fans, who end up beating the scenesters to bloody pulps between sets. These kids don't have the nuts to mosh.
At the Dream Theater/Opeth/3/Between the Buried and Me concert yesterday, the mosh pit started when some asswipe's slam dancing connected with a Dream Theater fan. The true fans around beat the slam dancers down mercilessly.

A type of action done by kids who are too weak to get into a real mosh pit so they must pretend fight so they won't get knocked on their asses.
