moshpit 

A nice circle where you are allowed to hug anyone you want. Next time you go to a concert please run to the center of that circle, if you get there first you'll get the most hugs! Hug everyone, but most importantly have fun!

Ps. Ignore the other definitions of "moshpit" they just want to scare you away cause they want to get to the center first. Don't let them fool you!

Lead singer: MOSHPIT!

Everyone: *runs to the center*

Leader singer: looks like the chick in the white shirt got there first!

Everyone: aw!

Lead singer: everyone hug her!

Everyone: *hugs her*

Girl in white shirt: yay! Best day of my life!

moshpit 

Jumping around, punching, kicking, and generally being violent to <b>LIVE</b> music, usually heavy metal, punk rock, hardcore or anything fast and hard.

It is not an excuse to try and hurt people but was origionally formed due to heavy metallers trying to release some of the fustrations of life.

Early Punkers didnt mosh, they skanked, pogoed and put stanley knives in each others backs.

"Dude! what happened to your arm?"

"Some tosser took a skateboard into the moshpit. Prick"

"Sucks to be you man."

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.
