Dont talk about mosh pitts
I stand about 5' 5 now, back in early 90s, maybe shorter.
That puts my face at about ELBOW level with most moshers.
Needless to say i got smashed in the face a few times.
One time in particular....Went to see Bush at Hornets training center....The Goo Goo Dolls were the opener....Having fun, dancing with chicks...music starts rocking harder:Rockon:...girls dissapear....all of a sudden, I find myself in the middle of a very rowdy pit. Just as i'm thinking"Damn, gotta move on outa here" Whamm! I got smashed in the grill so hard , all I remember is getting up. My mouth was pouring blood. My upper and lower eye teeth had went through my lip and hit each other, so hard it chipped BOTH teeth(inside the lip meat) I had a tooth chip in my lip and could blow smoke through the hole in my lip..That was rough....NO MORE MOSH PITS FOR ME.....EVER!!
I think whoever smashed me, probably did it on purpose and laughed with friends later and was like" Dude... I just stole some kid that never saw it coming" I just hope that dudes elbow or fist or whatever i was hit with , hurts like hell for ever!!
Rowdy mosh pit at a BUSH concert??? U sure it wasn't a wicked game of hokey pokey?
Also, Les Claypool is insane. Primus, Oysterhead,and his solo stuff, is all amazing in its own way, and just as good if not better live
