"In a mosh pit party it can be a bit of a badge of honour to come away with bruises," Sen-Constable Camilleri said.

Yeah, I think its just total crap, think of all the people stabbed and beaten up outside trendy dance clubs, a little moshing is NOTHING compared to that level of violence!

Meh... The unwritten laws of the mosh pits are in place for a reason.

This sounds like a school boys mosh pit,with people acting like jerks compared to a proper moshpit where you just pogo.

Ha ha, when I was at Graspop a few years back, I was in the tent Megadeth were playing in, standing by the sound desk with me missus, and I started making my way to the pit, and I looked around and saw about 400 MASSIVE guys doing exactly the same thing. So I skipped around and ran back to my girlfriend, ha ha!

Yeah I think I paid near enough $30 for 2 double Jim Beam and cokes there after asking for their cheapest whiskey. Also, don't tip them, they love that.

Mosh pits are gay.
