Happened to me at a Meshuggah and Tool show. My glasses got knocked off my face, and I went down to pick them up, which is a big mistake in a pit like that, which I didn't know at the time. Got knocked down, stepped on a couple of times but was almost instantly helped up.
.I love heavy metal concerts, and am the 1st guy to jump into the mosh pit, slammin fools around. But getting stuck in the front of the crowd ain't no joke.
Went to a Slipknot concert, with special guest Fear Factory (one of the best), and once they came onto the stage, my brother and I fought our way to the front, next to the gates in front of the stage. Once they started playing and got the crowd pumped up, we damn near got crushed against the gates, just from the swelling and swaying of the crowd behind us....and we are some big strong guys, but it was damn scary, it even sucked all the air out of our lungs
You know, you don't see this shit happening at metal festivals. Yet we get branded as Satanists and picked on. Go figure.
Ive been in really bad pits, and if you fall, people pick you up. Always the most wild in the pit are the first to help
