moron 2: idiot.
a dancing style closely -ssociated with heavy/rock music. when people mosh they often knock into other people and move their head in time to the music. a group of people all moshing is called a mosh pit.
the people were all moshing to the music.

everyone joined in the mosh pit.
a dance done during rock shows in tight places by hitting others and crashing into them
hey fred were you moshing in the moshpit ?
a hectic, sometimes very violent, form of dancing usually done at concerts for punk, hardcore, metal or hard rock bands. usually takes place at the front area of the floor, near the stage, in a crowd of people. when one moshes, a gap in the crowd emerges and somebody runs into the middle wildly flailing or swinging their arms and legs. in some cases people take turns moshing; one person enters the open area and moshes, then goes back to the edge, then another enters and moshes before leaving and making way for another person. however it is more common for many moshers to enter the sp-ce at the same time, creating a makeshift pit in the crowd filled with punching, kicking, and swinging of the limbs. thus this crowd of moshers is called a mosh pit. mosh pits can vary in size.

note: mosh pits can be extremely dangrous; countless cases of injuries have occurred in mosh pits. it is very common to be strongly punched or struck in the face when in a mosh pit. when a pit forms near an unwilling concertgoer, they and all others around the edge hold out their elbows and arms in defensive stances in order to create a buffer zone for the pit. and lastly, mosh pits can sometimes form unexpectedly, almost anywhere in a crowd. so fellow concertgoers should constantly take caution to look for them if they don’t want to be caught in the middle of the mosh pit.

there are many definitions for moshing on the urban dictionary, mostly involving metal heads. n-body bothered with the punk side of moshing. moshing at a punk show isn’t beating people up, it’s dancing out your anger, usually in a more violent form of sk-nking. it can involve things like spinning, jumping, and piggy back rides, usually in a circle pit. when you fall down in a mosh pit at a punk show, people help you up instead of trampling you. tere is usually an unspoken code of conduct that everyone follows, except that one -sshole that everyone hates. moshing is really fun and stress relieving, and you sleep like a baby afterwards. you get bruises a lot of the time
