Circle pits are fuckin' wicked.

Second only to walls of death.

Walls of death are fucking stupid, at least with regular pits, if you don't want to join in, you can get out of the way, walls of death get too many uninterested parties caught up.

Circle pits are the biggest waste of fucking time ever...they are shit for two reasons though;

1) It's a circle pit where people run around in a circle and do FUCK ALL...besides run around in a circle...what's the fuck the point...at least get some 'moshing' going...

2) People are beating seven shades of shit out of each other...what the fuck's the point...

There's no happy medium...because of this circle pits are fucking shit.

Wall of Death's can be pretty awesome, depending on the occasion...there was an epic one when I saw Streetlight Manifesto...but part of the problem with them (and circle pits etc) is that they seem far too 'organised'...like people are more interested in doing 'cool shit' instead of listening to the band.

I think we can all agree that 'hardcore dancing' is the gayest thing ever...it doesn't seem to have really caught on in the North East though, which is a good thing.

Oh, I don't know, I've seen quite a few cunts in the North East hardcore dancing.

Boro doesn't count...they're only doing that to find their way through the smog.

Never been to a gig in Boro, there's been a few I've been tempted, but I don't drive...and public transport back is literally non-existent after like 10/11.
