Moshing

A hectic, sometimes very violent, form of dancing usually done at concerts for punk, hardcore, metal or hard rock bands. Usually takes place at the front area of the floor, near the stage, in a crowd of people. When one moshes, a gap in the crowd emerges and somebody runs into the middle wildly flailing or swinging their arms and legs. In some cases people take turns moshing; one person enters the open area and moshes, then goes back to the edge, then another enters and moshes before leaving and making way for another person. However it is more common for many moshers to enter the space at the same time, creating a makeshift pit in the crowd filled with punching, kicking, and swinging of the limbs. Thus this crowd of moshers is called a mosh pit. Mosh pits can vary in size.

NOTE: Mosh pits can be extremely dangrous; countless cases of injuries have occurred in mosh pits. It is very common to be strongly punched or struck in the face when in a mosh pit. When a pit forms near an unwilling concertgoer, they and all others around the edge hold out their elbows and arms in defensive stances in order to create a buffer zone for the pit. And lastly, mosh pits can sometimes form unexpectedly, almost anywhere in a crowd. So fellow concertgoers should constantly take caution to look for them if they don't want to be caught in the middle of the mosh pit.

John: I was at the Bring Me The Horizon concert last night and sooooo many people were moshing! Eventually the lead singer called out to see a mosh pit and a huge one began to form right in the middle of the crowd.

Eric: Dude, that's insane. Did you get hit?

John: Yeah, at one point I got caught in the middle for a second and somebody punched me right in the face. The concert was still awesome though.

Moshava Discount

The Moshava (pronounced Mah-Shah-vah) discount is a 10% discount offered to campers and staff of the Ennismore Moshava at the Peterborough Baskin Robbins. This discount usually amounts to about 14 cents. Usually this discount can only be received June- August but lucky Petes fans can sometimes get the discount after a game, provided they go early enough in the season when the BNR is still open after the game.

Moshpit

Usually occurring among young people at the front of festivals and night clubs and sometimes concerts. It normally occurs when there is a genre of music with a drop in it e.g. rap, rock, electric, etc. It is usually started by one or a few people who spread their hands out gently pushing others back who then in turn notice what is going on and start to form an empty circle within the crowd. Others can join in the process of gently pushing the people next to them back to expand the circle. There are sometimes one or two people in the middle skipping around the edge ushering people to move out. Sometimes there are people doing acrobatics through the middle of the circle to add the the hype (but if you do this make sure you do this before the beat drops obviously). Then when the beat drops everyone rushes into the middle of the circle at the same time usually jumping to the beat; try to keep your balance as there will be pushing. Some mosh pits pulse e.g. they go in then out a bit etc. but some don't and just go in and stay in for a bit so just play it by ear. There is sometimes chanting you can join in with. In most mosh pits if someone or a few people fall on the floor people will shout out "stop" and everyone around will help the people off the floor quickly. So in essence they are a good way to make friends with random people and enjoy the music more but with a slightly increased risk of injury.
