dude, i’m so sore from all those punks slamming dancing in the circle pit last night at the circle jerks show!
is something that forms in a punk, ska, or metal concert. the purpose of it is for the outterpeople to keep the formation and act as bouncers and the dancers to run in. there are many different styles of dances that go on; the two step, the running man, sk-nking. also moshing and thrashing goes down. usually people in the pit are very curtious, if you fall, someone will stop and pick you up. this style of dancing is def. great if you’re at a underground punk show where people are more considerate, and women can partic-p-te without getting beat down.

a group dance move occuring at hardcore punk concerts. the fast music breaks down into an upbeat but slower tempo part, and this is called the “circle pit part” at which point everyone begins “sk-nking” in a circle as fast as possible. this circle generally runs counter clockwise, though there are those who run in the opposite direction to increase confusion.
