Hardcore Dancing

[xmordeciax]

i have been in and out of the local hardcore scene in MA since about 97. I know thats not old school, but some shit HAS changed. the punky edge has been replaced with detuned grindcore, all the music has been seperated into differenrt genres of "core". It's not about the music anymore it's all scene, and which band has the most people coming to the show, and these kids don't even like heavy music. Trendy assholes who just go to shows because it might be "cool". It was never COOL to listen to hardcore, i used to get picked on because i liked metal, and hardcore, but you show up at a show, you know your with family. That if any bad shit went down, evryone has eachother's back. NOW Their is this gang/ band what ever, who call themselfs f.s.u. witch stands for fuck shit up. All they do is try and start fights at shows so they can call their boys to stomp them 10 to 1.

Back when club 121 in brocton was open. I saw hatebreed, blood for blood, xxl, brawl park, no regret, punch the clown, and a whole bunch of other bands. the most you would have to pay..... is 7$ MABEY if like hatebreed was playing. now they want 12$ to see some REAL crappy local band that may or may not be hardcore.

sorry for the long post.

Haha amen on the "i used to get picked on because i liked metal, and hardcore, but you show up at a show, you know your with family." its always been the same for me too. however your knowledge of FSU is a bit askewed.

F.S.U. Stands for "Friends Stand United" not "Fuck Shit Up", they are a crew started by members the bands, Blood for Blood (Chabo), Righteous Jams (Elgin), Death Before Dishonor and many other boston based hardcore bands. They are not there to start fights but in fact to police the shows. Now you can find members of F.S.U. in every state (they are huge in Portland, ME). Unfortunaly they have received a lot of bad rep recently due to the Media making hardcore shows and their participants look bad. There are F.S.U. members at just about every single show i go to and I have not once seen them give people shit that the didnt deserve, sure if your a disrespectful to them you'll get your face beat in but that will happen if you disrespect pretty much anyone at a hardcore show! In truth most F.S.U. members are really friendly, I've met a bunch of them, talked to a few and they are just sincerly nice dudes, and I respect them a whole lot because the hardcore community has a lot to owe to them, they are the reason why nazi skins dont come to hardcore shows in boston anymore, they are the reason why we have half the venues in and around boston (including romans and the cambridge elks), and they are a big reason why you can feel safe when going to a show (in fact they are the bouncers and the door people for most shows). I remember about 2 months ago i was at a show in hudson, ma and this kid got knocked out unconscious after stage diving, the band nor did many of the kids realize it happened so they continued playing and dancing but the F.S.U. members did notice so they ran out into the pit and protected this guy on the floor while they got the band to stop playing so they could get him out of there safely.

Hopefully this clears up the misconceptions about the F.S.U.!!!

I agree those of you who say it going downward, your in the wrong place. This shit started in the 80's with Slayer, old metalica, they said it was dumb and dying then look at it now twice as big twice as many bands. You may be getting banged up and lossing face but with bands like Soulfly, Slayer, Hatebreed, Machinehead, Hoods, Cannibal Corpse, and new bands forming every day It will never die. Some people are warriors and need to get hit.
I dont care or think its emo or any of that shit. I do the hardcore dance when no one will mosh. The objective is to piss people off and have them come hit you so you can hit them back, thus starting a chain reaction and turingin into a pit. I think it looks funny as hell and to some one whos never seen it, when some one "picking change" or doing a "windmill" gets hit it is devisting. Which is the whole point of the mosh pit to see how much you can take and how much you can dish outimp: imp: imp: Oh RIP Pantera

Hardcore is a friendly environemnt, everyone at a hardcore show usually understands that if they get hit it by accident, i do not under any circumstances hit people on purpose, yes i crowd punch but i do not intentionally hit any one, very few people do, i respect your position on it as i dont know wheere your from but a little FYI thats not why we dance here in mass... keep it posi brother!

[BlazinTreesX3]

looks like they were smoking something off topic and have to fight off the bad people...funny as hell tho

what if all of cannabis.com were in a giant empty warehouse smoking up right in the middle of it and DEA agents came in all sides and all 3000 or so of us just start hardcore dancing and end up taking out all the agents with only about 200 of us hit by gunfire..

Hahahaa I'm sorry but I don't see how you can enjoy that kinda shit when you're high, or if you even smoke weed at all. The music=headache and the dancing or whatever it is makes those dumbass kids look like they have tourettes and are being attacked by bees.

You weren't supposed to enjoy it, you were supposed to laugh at it.

Oh I know that was your reason for putting it up here, I was directing it to that guy that keeps ranting about how great it is.
