You really think your gonna see some pits and walls' of deaths at blackout? HA. you want a mosh pit, go see slipknot in december. I gurantee you will be ****** if you get in them pits..

A moshpit is where all the fights are. when you are "moshing", your just going crazy. no fights while you "mosh"

Actually if the people are decent there shouldn't be any proper fights - the idea is to just get everyone in and get everyone messed up, you don't pick on certain people and you DEFINITELY do not take it personally and start fights. The idea is you come out saying "damn my nose is broke in three places and I have a bruised rib, excellent!" rather than "I broke some guy's nose and kicked the crap out a couple of kids"


However with the bands you're seeing I'm guessing it will mostly be 14 year olds, so just bounce or something

ALSO what kind of tshirt should i wear?

dont really matter, but its a general rule that you don't wear the t-shirt of a band you're seeing.
