It's called a "mosh pit" for a reason...

I'm not saying what happened was right, as I also hate idiots who decide to push people an in attempt to get closer, but that should be expected if you are going to be on the floor in the pit area (especially up front in the stage). Although the last two shows I've went to and was in the pit, I did not experience any pushing whatsoever, anytime I go, I am prepared and expecting pushing to break out. Back in 99 when they were touring with Our Lady Peace and came to the Milwaukee Arena, I was kicked in the head twice and had bruises on my ribs because I was being pushed very hard into the rail. I had a hell of a good time though.

Again, my comments are not meant to be rude or putting you down in any way... I'm just saying that being in the pit, one should expect for the worst and hope for the best.
