Looks like some guys trying to do that ‘hardcore dancing’…. I saw one guy get thrown through a door cos he tried to do it in a pit. Safest place to be at a gig. I fell over in one and before I’d hit the floor I had 4 pairs of hands pulling me back up. Saw a girl get caught in a circle pit unintentionally, whole thing stopped so she could get out then resumed.
I remember 4 kids doing this at a metal gig before and me and a few bigger dudes basically circled them in so they wouldn't get trampled. Important to pick the right spot for shenanigans!
Sullivan King did this with us in the pit at the Fox in Boulder and you could tell he was psyched to be able to get in the pit for something. Crowd let him in and out easy, was a good time
No wonder disease is an issue in the community, look how fast it grows from one to dozens in a minute. In my experience with straight sex it usually tops out at two participants, and usually reduces to one in a minute.
Heavy metal roadie here. This one tracks back to Amon Amarth's "Put Your Back Into The Oar" at their Bloodstock show in 2009, and crowds still do it at their shows - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tIFMZGZO8GQ#t=3m23s
Following the row pit, Amon Armath battles a gaint inflatable dragon. Those shows have incredible production. 10/10 highly recommended for even non metal fans
These guys were the opening act for Ghost. I just got lucky. But then again I live in Texas and between Dallas and Austin pretty much every band in the world will be between those two cities
Not really. In the last few years the phase has been co-opted by that movement to make boys sound naturally misogynistic, but no. For well over a hundred years it's referred to boys enjoying the absurdity of the moment, regardless of the outcome.

Hell yes. I figured Amon Amarth before I unmuted.

My 8 year old turned me onto these guys! They're awesome!!

Actually went to see them a couple weeks ago, great show
AdmiralJohn
Yep, saw them open for Ghost last month and everyone was rowing. :)
Acc87
in Germany it tracks to "Aloha Heja He" by Achim Reichelt. Still really popular to do it especially on wedding parties: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjZJOzOnTS0

Not that it's playing here but they do a similar thing at Powerwolf concerts for Sainted by the Storm
Nykidemus
Powerwolf sounds like a super fun show
Valkyyria
They are! Seen them already a lot of times, and I still go every opportunity I get.
Senguie
I was at amon Amarth ik the Netherlands few months ago. It was amazing. Rowing with so many people.

Amon Amarth!!! <3
KoomValley
The Alestorm crowd did it for "Nancy the Tavern Wench" at their last show here.
Qpnao
It's great for making sure everyone can see 😊
Darkwell
Amon Amarth: our audience will row. Rammstein: we will row over the audience.
Nykidemus
Dude the boat was a fucking awesome gimmick

YES! Got to see them with Ghost this month and the crowd still rows along with the song

Same, it was a fantastic show.

Where do you see these Swedish bands? They do Stateside tours regularly?
