mosher

Put plainly and simply - A person dancing in a mosh pit - NOT someone sat around in brightly coloured clothes. NOT someone who wears baggy trousers and skateboards (they're skaters)...
The front of a crowd at a rock/metal/punk concert is a "mosh pit" - the people in it are "moshers"

mosher

A mosher is someone who enjoys listening to music (around the metal/rock area) They wear mainly jeans, sometimes skinny, sometimes baggy, and a lot of them wear plimsols. They usually have funky hair, but unfortunately i dont. As you may have guessed, I myself happen to be a mosher, and i am currently wearing grey checked skinny jeans, a brown hoodie (NOT CHAVVY OR PREPPY HOODY) and them bulky plimsol things with straps on. i do not believe in god and totally despise all chavs and preps. :P hope i helped
i cant do an example, every mosher has their own personality.

mosher

A mosher is often confused with goths, emos, and metalheads but dont be fooled. The term mosher is simply a person who hates chavs and is often found listening to various types of rock or metal music. They usually wear black/brightly coloured clothes along with blue jeans and any kind of shoes that suit the rest of their outfit. Moshers are also known to be quite passive in their approach to life i.e. they will never get involved in a fight unless they are strongly provoked. They do have a rebellion side of them but often they will not aim to break the rules but to simply bend them. They may also tend to hide feelings from others and then release those feelings to rock music instead of to other people.
chav: oi prick, wt kinda crappy ass music is tht?! u shud listen to sum proper r'n'b music with a wikid beat innit
mosher: First of all, i'm not a prick and you are a hypocrite. Secondly, this music is fucking awesome and you only like rap music because you're gay and you want to follow the crowd and their dumbass chart music.
chav: u fuckin wat m8?! i'll bang u out blud!
mosher: Yes, ofcourse you will. I am very scared. (sarcasm)

mosher

moshers dont have to hang out only wiv other moshers. Anyone who is sound enough to relise that moshers are much more fun than any other group. chavs/neds usually hate moshers because they are imature and think their hard cause their in a big group. the only time a ned will start a fight is if thier group has a 2:1 advantage. moshers dont need to listen to metal or have baggy clothes. its people who genually like to mosh in mosh pits a any concert. any real mosher will know this.
chav: look at that dirty mosher
chav2: ye lets kick his arse even though we dont have a reason
mosher stands his ground and the chavs shit themselves cause they arent actually intimidating anyone
mosher: lol

Mosher

Prehistoric rocker.
Before depression, drainpipes and emo, there was light-heartedness, baggy jeans and moshers.

These were people who listened to a wide variety of rock music, but weren't particularly interested in fashion. Playing guitar out of genuine interest and skateboarding among teenage moshers was very common, unlike today, where many are too self-conscious to attempt any sport activity.

Attire can include anything from casual everyday wear, to So-Cal statements such as dickies shorts and high socks a-la Blink 182, to baggy hoodies and jeans, often with chains attached. Skinny jeans had not yet been invented.

Genuinely want to have a good time whilst moshing and headbanging in the 'mosh pit', hence where the word 'mosher' originated. Generally open-minded, fun, and nice people, always up for a party, often have many 'mosher' friends. Are indifferent to dirt and greasiness. Hate labelling or stereotypes. Only known enemies are jerks, chavs, neds and council estate working class pyromaniacs.

Most popular from the early-mid 1990's to early 2000's.
Extinct by about 2002.
Chav: 'See that mosher, mate! F*ckin' goth freak, like! Oi, turn around before I break you're f*ckin' jaw with me kappas, like!'

Mosher:...
