Inspired by [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=428478). Things that always make me wanna jump around/mosh even when I am not at a concert are divided into these: Songs that have “Oy! Oy!” parts you can pump your fist to: – Godspeed by Anberlin. My current favorite and I’m seeing them next weekend! – Half of Dropkick Murphys stuff Punk songs that have a buildup to a heavy part that you can burst out with jumping and going wild when it happens: – 10 Minutes to Downtown by the Get Up Kids – At Your Funeral by Saves the Day ---

“Smells Like Teen Spirit” - Nirvana I \*did \* mosh in the nineties. 😃 Green Day - “American Idiot” Ozzy - “Crazy Train” “Vasoline” - STP There’s tons more, but Nirvana never fails to help me get my mosh on. ---

[QUOTE=Ludovic] I-- Half of Dropkick Murphys stuff [/QUOTE] I saw them recently and they had the gnarliest mosh pit I’ve seen in 10 years. They practically define “OY! OY! OY!”. I gotta go with God Save The Queen, Anarchy In The UK, Lust for Life (diminished somewhat due to ubiquitous TV commercials) and Blitzkrieg Bop. Yeah, I’m into the classics. ---

“Self Esteem” by Offspring. They actually played that at a ROTC Military Ball, and since we engineering majors didn’t have any dates, we moshed. Good time. ---

[QUOTE=ZipperJJ] “March of the Pigs” - NIN…been there, done that, could stand up and get my ass kicked to it still today 🙂 [/QUOTE] I saw NiN in a small club back when “Pretty Hate Machine” came out and HOLY SHIT! :eek: The pit was intense as hell and I was really glad to have worn my steel toe boots that night even though it was hotter than hell. I was the only chick in the pit and it was fun, fun, fun! If I tried to do that now I’d be in the hospital. Ah, the good old days… ---

Most stuff by the Ramones, the Misfits, NIN, Bad Religion and Ministry. Ramones especially. My first experience in the pit, first stage dive, first crowd surfing, etc. All thanks to the Ramones. Craziest pit I’ve ever been in was definitely NIN. I was sore for days after. ---

[QUOTE=Darryl Lict] I saw them recently and they had the gnarliest mosh pit I’ve seen in 10 years. They practically define “OY! OY! OY!”. [/QUOTE] Gotta go with Dropkick Murphys and Bad Religion too. I saw them both last September, and was right up front. It was SO worth the bruises. ---
