Get the moshers mug.people who have the confidence to be themselves and not who every one else wants them to be, rather than buy the exact same makes as their friends , so as to fit in. Moshers often express themselves freely and generally don like bieng called sweaty as they walk through town.

mosher: f**kin chav , lets see what he thinks of us 'sweatys' in 5 minutes
*mosher makes a little call to his frends down the street who just happen to wear chains as a fashion accesory , or happen to have a skateboard handy*

Get the moshers mug.by cody taylor cooper September 3, 2007
Get the mosher mug.As a labelled 'mosher' for the last 20-odd years I think most people have a point with their definitions. I feel that moshers (or rock fans as they should really be termed) are generally personable and friendly, and are on the whole of above average intelligence. They are quite chilled out (in my case due to having rock music to channel any aggression that might be lurking...not in a negative way though) but have a chip on their shoulder about the general perception of them by society as a whole.
Back in my day (about 1860) there was even more distrust of moshers as we were a smaller sub-group than is the case now, and we were seen as a subversive influence. I find it hard to credit that this is still the case now, despite the fact that youth anti-social behaviour is often highlighted without any examples of moshers being involved (except as victims :()
I do find the individuality thing funny though. I always saw myself as an individual, as were my 40 similarly attired acquaintances! Peole who are labelled often shrink into the safety of the genre they're placed in and therefore limit themselves in what they wear and listen to. Genuine individuality is wearing and listening to exactly what they want without any need to justify themselves. Having said that:
Moshers are generally positive, intelligent and thoughtful people who have always been given a negative reputation without any justification.

Our television screens are full of examples of anti-social behaviour, but do any of them show anti-social behaviour by moshers?
