Atreyu was the band I went there for and I had fun during there set.AND I couldn't agree with the lead singer more about all that jump up and punch people in the back of the head shit.That's fucking gay...what is the point really?I love to mosh.I also like to be able to stand up front with out be punched for no reason in the back of the head.Now it's one thing when your on the wall of the pit and get hit but it's another when your 3 rows in and "hardcore" kids are jumping up and "bopping" you.I don't call that dancing.I call that being a fucking idiot.But yeah the end of the set was great when everyone charged the stage.

Yeah, getting "bopped" on the back of your head that's totally tragic. It'll def ruin your night to get a tap on the head from some 30lb kid. Try taking a hit from a 300lb kid running full speed at you and decking you in the face. Why? Cuz I took more than my fair share of those when I was just a little nurler like you probably are..

Im not gonna preach hardcore superiority because Im by no means "old skool". I'll just say this. Hardcore is hardcore wether you want it to be or not. In New England especially kids get kicked, kids get punched, shit happens. Just because you strolled in fresh out of hot topic equiped with the latest poison the well cd with the rest of the clowns at that show and have no clue whats up doesn't mean we've got to change the rules for you.

I know Throwdown fed all you kids this "This is a family..." junk and you think that I'm supposed to care about you, or your feelings just because you could pay the cover charge. The first thing you should have learned already is that you don't set the rules, and neither does some smartass fashioncore band. No matter what t-shirt you have on, no matter what hairstyle you have, no matter how many records your stupid band sells, NO ONE has to accept you.

And here's a better lesson from a better band "Don't wanna get hit, don't stand in the front, cry when you do, you're nothin' but a CUNT" -Death Threat (pre-youth crew)

oh yeah...and welcome to massachusetts.
