Hey Sin ... I'm really sorry, I can't answer any of your questions. But I would really like to know what mosh means

**pilly84** · 31-08-2005, 03:24 PM

Taken from the 'Beginners Guide to the Mosh Pit':

"Moshing is an expression of music by the crowd at a concert/gig. It occurs when bands of the metal/punk/rock genres play live. At these gigs, members of the crowd will gather at the front and will furiously and passionately shove/ push/ body slam each other in time to the music. But the idea is not to cause any harm to each other (even though that's usually the case ) but just to enjoy the music in a less passive way, like you would if you were to dance to any type of music."

Hope that helps

i used to live in leicester a while back, theres the charlotte for bands (the occasional good band will play, depending on what your into). theres "mosh" for a good saturday night, fanclub too - maybe other places too :S. rock city in nottingham is good too (only 30 min train ride).

going out on tranisition sat sounds good...provided im not sorting things out with the room etc.

**sly fox** · 01-09-2005, 01:18 PM

hey guys

hows it going?

Coffee shopes eh!

Kookie, your right, there is a Starbucks in The Shires Shopping mall. There is also one on Gallowtree gate, near to the Market, again in the city centre, and there is also one in the Food court at Fosse Park; a shopping complex on the edge of the city.

There are also two Caffe Nero's in the city centre.

Hope this helps.
