I actually had to google that. Presumably it's due to poor farming and curing? Either way I can only blame alcohol and low tolerance for my first trip to whitey hell I fear.

Certainly beats the one and only bad trip I had on mushrooms though. Good God! The floor opened up and swallowed me and I spent what seemed like eternity (actually about a hour I'm told) in purgatory coming to terms with the fact I had just died (which I'm told resembled me just staring into a bathroom mirror chanting gibberish).

My own fault, I was at a metal gig (Chimera) and decided that the moshpit was the ideal place to come up. Though I did have a great time after that (everything is going to seem great after you just died and came back to life), and every other of the 20 or so trips I had were wonderful and enlightening and even this incident probably did me a lot of favours in hindsight...

So you know..don't be put off kids! Drugs can be great.

How can I show this to my neighbours and make them understand it?Timeline of this weekend - we saw some of them dressed to the nines getting into a stretched limo on Friday.

On Saturday they (as normally) loudly discussed how the person they saw could have performed for 5 more minutes whilst simultaneously stating how this performer had proven Michael Jackson's saintliness because said MJ had stayed with the performer for 4 days.

It's worth noting at this point all we knew was they went out somewhere in a stretched limo and saw someone who had MJ to visit for 4 days.

On the Sunday the normal loud talking over our fence lead to the discovery that not only did my neighbors take a stretched limo to arrive at a Michael Flatley concert. They couldn't recall the name of the long haired blonde peado with a cigar (it was Jimmy Saville - most prolific sexual predator in history) or as they roundly called him "that Australian dude" (Rolf Harris - more cherished, like painted the queens portrait, but still sent down for being a peed).

So the outcome of this is my neighbors who have a very small 4 bed house (would be 3 except they opened the loft), own 9 cars, have a 32, 26 and 18 year old still living at home. They hire a stretched limo so they go an see Michael Flatley perform live then come home and discuss loudly how Michael Jackson was obviously a good person because he stayed with Michael Flatley. Shortly afterwards they then totally struggled to remember the names of the biggest sex offender ever known in the uk and the most treasured letdown of all time.

This is almost par with them discussing a new flavor of chips/crisps for 45 min or that time 4 of them tried to count the same amount of change for >20 mins and none of them could agree the same amount.

Sorry had to rant - I'd love to confront them over the noise/cars/stupidity etc but I'm a mildly tough 40 year old. Their highly violent and the 26 year is a goddamn cagefighter.

I honestly can't vent enough - literally I could write a novel on how much my neighbors suck. Just as a final point to carry things across - I recently needed to cut back some ivy in my backgarden. During the hour this took they played Natasha Beddingfield's "These Words" 5 times. Yes I'm a Maggot, Yes I'm a 40 year old who probably needs to stop jumping into moshpits. But Natasha Beddingfield??? 5 times?? Really????

@eric3579, that alternate is also *blocked

Hola to the rescue

For the record kids, you can still go to concerts in your 30s.

I went to see NIN and Queens of the Stone Age just two weeks ago. It was epic, and I'm 36. If I hadn't had my hand in a cast, I'd have been taking names in the moshpit too, which I will do next month at Beastwars!

ChaosEngine: refusing to grow up since 1977...

surprisingly accurate recreation of a moshpit

>> ^MarineGunrock:
I'm sorry, but anything where the primary vocals include "eeeeaaaaaarrrrrrraaggggghhhhh" is NOT rock and or roll.


MG? Was that you I just heard yelling at those kids to get off your lawn?

Good lord. It was interesting, but i'll take whatever drugs the audience is having, because that was in now way moshpit/crowdsurf worthy.

reminds me of a christian rock concert.

Deichkind rock! They played at the Melt Festival the second time in a row last year opening for "Snap" (yes they still exist) and they put on a wild show in front of 50.000 people that included the band dressed in flourescent space outfits floating across the crowd in a rubber raft and a huge inflated crowd floating trampoline with girls jumping around on it. Madness! All of this at 4 o´clock in the morning!

The year before they told the entire crowd of 50.000 people to come up on stage for a moshpit and about 500 people managed to climb up until the police stopped it because the stage almost collapsed under the weight of people jumping around....

Crazy germans

brave motherfuckers for being in their own moshpit, too!

Lol pushing you with their retard strength moshpit style, classic
