{show etiquette} how to act at hardcore shows:
dress: make sure you wear your favorite hardcore band shirt or sweatshirt (must be very tight)
X's on your hands even if you don't know what it symbolizes
tight jeans
adidas sambas or vans
slick your moptop to the side or rock your fohawk
eye makeup and lipring (optional)
bandana if planning to go in the pit
act: when waiting outside the show, talk to your friends and complain about all the poser kids there who are killing the scene
when the first band plays. stand with your hands in your pockets or with your arms folded and show little interetest
between bands, look at the merch table but don't buy anything yet. you don't want to be holding a t-shirt or mesh hat in the pit now, do you?
before going in the pit, put on your bandana, wrestling mask, or sweatshirt hood. also wear your wrist tape because your hands are delicate. dance: some acceptable dance moves are:
the windmill
the floorpunch
the stagedive
the claw
the scissorkick
the sledghammer
the spinning ball of death
crowdsurfing
fistpumping
the reverse windmill
the gorilla (similar to the reverse windmill)
the roundhouse
the jerkoff
and the elbow
note: it is very important that you DO NOT MOSH. moshing is for punks, you are not a punk. anymore.
