Baybeats: Can we mosh or not?

There was plenty of bodysurfing and moshing in the first night, unlike previous years where security would swoop in at any 'criminals' =P

So are we allowed to mosh already? Why are some fellas dragged out by security still?
 
here's wad i think...


the audience for baybeats will be from all walks of life in a sense that there are adults..teens...kids..bla bla bla so on and so forth..


i strongly believe one can enjoy the performances without moshing or body surfing..


baybeats is smth all of us or at least most of us wud enjoy..


here's 2 scenarios..

there's a moshpit..and sumone loses their balance and fall to the floor and gets stomped by the hyperactive mob..chances are the poor fella would have sustained serious injuries or in a worst case, die.

and

during body surfing..wad if (the damned keyword here is IF) the crowd couldnt handle sweaty bodies well the person bein carried is accidentally dropped on to the ground, say..headfirst..a concussion wud be in order.


it is certainly not pleasant to read regarding mishaps at baybeats.


think about it..why not make this safe for all and not be so self centered (like wanting moshing and bodysurfing to be allowed just so a small bunch cud enjoy the performance slightly more.) .


im not directing or targetting this the TS or anyone else for that matter..

its juz smth to give some thought to since i do see kids amidst the energized crowds and even parents (parents of the kids i suppose)..
 
guys ! stand back and enjoy the music .. this is baybeats .. not some emocore band over at gas haus ... i agree with deathism ... u guys dont have to mosh ....
 
i was at the back last night watching people being pulled out. One of the security did a fist to the cheek gesture and the chill, relax gesture. So i guess it's violence?
 
i think moshing is ok for the RIGHT songs, i saw some kids trying to start some mosh when Plainsunset was playing. Really, HOW DO YOU MOSH TO THEIR SONGS? It gets very irritating really when people want to listen and enjoy their song!
 
People were fighting, obviously the security will pull those people out. I just dont understand why kids mosh and complain about getting hit and wanna start a fight. I mean, obviously you're gonna get hit one way or another.

Also, the security were dragging those kids who fainted asking them to relax and breathe. And people should only mosh at moshable songs/parts. Thats how you conserve energy for later!
 
no smoking.. :x







thanks to a friend..i was pushed into a moshpit..a burly asshole..2-3 times my size had his legs smashing against my head..


i came out of the moshpit immediately..feeling woosy.



went to the doc the next day..


the news was..




A-OK! :D



moral of the story: DUN PUSH UR FRIENDS INTO THE MOSHPIT!
 
and oh..i really really HATE moshing..



but headbanging...im ready.



but hair short and curly..not nice to headbang. :lol:

















they shud make a yellow box right in front of stage..spanning all the way to the back.. :lol:




but nvm la huh..if i dun smoke i wont die..besides..must be considerate to those non smokers..


mark ah...davidoff not nice la...
 
moshing and bodysurf= baybeats. no moshing and bodysurf= lamebeats

not true. you can always jump and sing along.
yesterday there were alot of kids moshing violently / hardcore dancing to the wrong bands. errrr whats happening?
 
err yesterday got moshing and hardcore dancing? thats weird.

all i see was kids pushing each other, then got some tat wanna start a fight, and kids pushing each other again and again...and again.
 
if there's no moshing there won't be atmosphere lah, but of course too violent is damn extra, like when plainsunset did one emo part then some jokers went and body surf, that was retarded. There was a point when i saw one girl behind me that just came out of the pit, she was delirious, not knowing what was happening. and i saw one guy being carried out of the pit, obviously he had fainted. There's always these risks involved.

but, i'm one of the guys at the back. so, its cool 8)
