"Got" to miss Clutch? 'roidian slip, if i've ever swelled one. Thirrsty, i think you were Clutchblocked by an elaborate mosh-ruse. I think someone may have taken a pit-dive.

Fixx was in.

Today I recieved a package from the Gooses. 3 Prong CDs, a bottle of Makers Mark, and one of my disposeable flasks that i must have forgot and left at their place. I told Greygoose it was no biggie, but I guess he felt the need to make up for the evening. This should do it.
I SAID I GOT A FREE BOTTLE OF MAKER'S!!!!
CHEERS!

I've discussed this often on Facebook, the fact that while looking violent the pit is actually one of the most organised and friendly places to be. Everyone knows the score and everyone looks outfor each other. yeah you fall, yeah you get bruised but there's no malice, no direct aggression, it's all just part of the same organism and like any organism it is self policing. Unfortunately, some dicks don't understand and ruin it for all, the norm is for the group to turn against the one and force him out.

The other problem is not many security have joined the pit so all they see is the outside perception of violence, they don't know who is in the wrong and hence the wrong guy gets booted.

Ah the most pit.
A most excellent example of brutal top tier athletic folk dancing for men.

What's less homoerotic than 15 to 4000 drunken sweaty (and occasionally topless) young men slamming into each other, push and shoving and grunting and throwing each other around, lifting each other up off of floors covers in dirt and beer and broken glass, then banging into each other again after launching themselves across said floor again twisting and deflecting and wrestling and bouncing around to the blast-beat FUCKING METAL rhythm?

Perhaps the traditional man-hugging of sweat and beer and spent testosterone drenched strangers afterwards, combined with the soft spoken promises of "next time, man fucking right next show . . . . see you there . . .. . . fuck yea better see you there man . . . . ."

On a side note;
Locally tradition is if some asshat in a pit isn't obeying the unspoken barbarian protocols of "pick thy brother up when he falls" and generally bulldozing everyone over without any finesse, said asshat usually gets an express ride to the Floor 'N Boots hotel with a quick stop over in Elbows-Knees-and Head-butt city courtesy of the rest of us old pros in the pit who give a flyingfuckgodamn about safety and pit etiquette as it was handed down to us from the methusula old punks from the old days of the bygone age of civility know as the 1980s . . . . . . When smashing ones forehead against the forehead of your friends with a boisterous OI! OI! OI! was considered a proper god-damned public greeting between gentlemen.

It was a more dignified age apparently, Or so I've been told by the drunken 50 year old with the droopy greying mowhawk slouching in the corner over his ninth can of lucky extra.

I seem to remember seeing a certain someone being escorted from a certain Denver tavern into an alleyway. what happened to his pants after that will go down in the annals (get that: annals/anal) of drunkard lore. I'm comin' to denver and head-buttin' your ass Oggar-style!
