the act of getting in a large pack of sweaty teenagers (usually at a dance or concert) during the song sandstorm and/or another crazy song, and pushing and shoving eachother until you fall to the ground helplessly.
Ryan: Dude, my chick was stepped on last night.
Ben: Was she moshing?
Ryan: Yeah. And I think I was the one who stepped on her.

Mosh Mosh Revolution is identical to Dance Dance Revolution but with punk music and a moshpit-style method of playing.
Guy 1: That new arcade opened up across the road; i hear they're got Dance Dance Revolution there! Wanna go play it?
Guy 2: No way! Mosh Mosh Revolution is so much cooler.

A form of expression that has been obscured by the media and pussified by society. True moshing is a release of all your anger and hate. Basically you beat the shit out of each other. However "hardcore" and "emo" people have managed to make moshing look like pussy shit to all those who dont know the truth. They just push each other. What the fuck is that shit.
True Metalhead to other true metalheads: Lets fuck shit up!!*chaos ensues*
Emo fag: Hey guys lets listen to Hawthorne Heights and push each other
Other emo fag: oh you mean moshing?
First emo fag: yea!
*true metalheads come and WREAK THEIR SHIT!*

mash mosh pit
A "March Up", often used in ye olde England in a sentence "March Up The Town" ...meaning to either protest en masse against the political system, or, later to engage in hooliganism of many kinds....got appropriated and Patois-ized into "MASH up de town" by the Caribbean blacks who were emigrating and traveling back and forth to the UK, and that's how "gon' mash up de town" got into the lexicon of reggae/ska lyrics...and they pretty much used it in the same way, protest, gang action, general going out en masse with a posse to effect some sort of group "excitement" (Brixton, Islington, etc) which might also include some dancing...the proto punks of the UK as we already know (like the Clash etc.) were huge fans of reggae and ska, and appropriated it in it's shortened form "mash", in some cases maintaining it's meaning of political or social protest, but that bled over into the new mass-dancing and energy of the punk-rock movement.. but the English meets Cockney meets West Indian meets Jamaican accent certainly sounds way more like "mosh", and that's the way the Cali and NY punk kids in their respective language-challenged ears heard and re-appropriated it for further redefining as a way to describe THEIR en-masse energetic actions, specifically, in the Pit (remember when it used to be SLAM DANCING? I didn't think so). But in doing so, historically-revised it into something never or rarely thought of as BLACK in origin (indeed, I bet most of the denizens of the world of the modern American MOSH PIT would be loathe to incorporate little if any Africanism into their mostly white pursuit)... especially white-supremacist Skinhead types, though they might, in their ass-backwards way of "white-i-fying" everything, hearken back to the days of yore and say that the blacks who came to England were the one's who really modified it's original meaning. I wonder if in their urge to be ultra-correct, in a WHITE way, would start calling a Mosh pit a MARCH PIT! Unfortunately, most interesting slang that has been kicking around and morphing for centuries, comes to a sudden and boring, dumb-ass demise at the hands of young, white Americans.
