heres a link to the pix my buddy took at the COC concert a year ago. i just got them from him. most are blurry, some are outta focus, but alot of them are not only good, but they also show the energy factor.

they are my favorite band. i have all but 2 of their cds. (i think). i wish those pics woulda came out better, but Flea (my buddy who snapped them) was drinking jaggerbombs all night and took them at the end of the night. that concert was the first time i had ever been in a pit.

Haha kick ass!! Yeah can't blame the dude for tryin', at least he GOT pics. Blurry memories are better than none at all. :D

First time I was ever in a pit was during Fear Factory, which was pretty badass. No horrible incidents, just lots of hardcore freaks pounding the hell out of each other.

Ah, memories. Damnit, I'm too old for that stuff anymore. My knees would blow out or something hahaha!

Never got the pleasure to see CoC live. Much to my dismay.

ive seen them twice. well worth the price of admission. my biggest fear in the pit is to lose a piercing with a chunk of meat hooked to it. i had my shirt off and was drunk, or woulda never did it. the old nip piercing is too big and too easily caught on shit. wasnt a very good idea really, but at 35 i figured it was now or never.

ahhhh the first time in a pit.

Mine was at a Front 242 show. i had been at the front of the stage for the previous band, Ethyl Meatplow {who i was actually there to see}. Strangely it never crossed my mind to get out of there, until 242 came out... and the crowd totally changed. i managed to stay on my feet, remarkable at 4'11" in a sea of men. But i took an elbow {i think} to the jaw.
After being pulled out, i got to spend the next hour or so in the Bar with an icepack and some of Ethyl Meatplow. woowoo!! Luckiest injury ever!

My first mosh pit was to seputura (max cavelera times) when i was 14 or 15... i got freakin crushed, it kicked ass...
Then Ministry at the same gig (Metallica's Big Day Out in UK a looong time ago).. survived that one somewhat better
