Hey, i just came back from a metal tribute night at my local House of Blues (venue) The first two bands were pretty horrible, and the third started horrible and then went on to play Songs from Megadeth, Slayer, Pantera, and Dio. During Megadeth i decided to jump into the mosh. One guy in a white shirt was being rather unpleasant (as much as you can be while in a mosh) and decided to punch me in the kidney then elbow me in the ear. So my ear hurts under my headphones and i don't know what to do about it.
so FP what should i be doing about this sore ear?
TL;DR I went into a mosh at a metal concert and got an elbow in my ear.

Edit: I also went in the moshpit at a later time to get a free ticket to the next gig.

If someone is being a douche in the pit and punches you purposely you punch them back
And about the ear, well I suggest you deal with it or take some Advil if it's really that bad
Why would you go there?
[QUOTE=erie1555;23511770]Why would you go there?[/QUOTE]
Same reason anyone jumps into the pit at a metal show
to step on the face of emo kids
[QUOTE=erie1555;23511770]Why would you go there?[/QUOTE]
Because i love metal?
Cool? See a doctor if you believe it is serious, wait a while if it is not.
Lol the OP picture is funny, everyone in it is the stereotypical skinny metal nerd.

I've never been in a pit that wasn't at least 60% fat guys that fuck your shit up
Ya but look at all those guys, none of them look menacing in the least and they're stomping around with like bandanas on and shit. It just looks funny.
[QUOTE=Simpleboo;23511778]Because i love metal?[/QUOTE]
I love metal too, but I don't have an urge to go ballin' with a bunch of hooligans.
I enjoy watching the show and listening to the music.

then you actually get into the pit and the next day you're a paraplegic

Nah I've seen real mosh pits, and he's right most of them are a bunch of huge dudes fucking shit up with everyone else like standing on the edges. But just that singular picture I mean. I wouldn't personally be scared by any of them.

The mosh at the venue was full of really beefy dudes, and i'm half-beefy and really white
Edit:
[QUOTE=Zeke129;23511883]That picture was guaranteed to have been taken during a metalcore/nu-metal gig.[/QUOTE]
I would agree

I would hate it if I would get into a mospit by accident, as in it would be formed to the spot where I would be. I'd be fucking pissed.

Serves you right for going in.

I like how Facepunch is vehemently anti-fun
Everyone has problems with their ears here at Facepunch :psyduck:
[QUOTE=Zeke129;23511922]I like how Facepunch is vehemently anti-fun[/QUOTE]
What is fun to some people is a pain in the ass for others.
[QUOTE=w0lfeh;23511951]Everyone has problems with their ears here at Facepunch :psyduck:[/QUOTE]
Hold on a sec, I'll take a knife and stick it in my ear then post pics on FP. I wanna join in.

It's because people see other threads and can't be original which is happened alot lately for example, cats.

oh, i lost my shoe for a good 3 minutes today in the mosh.
what a dick, I thought the general rule of ettiquette in the mosh pit was don't hit a fucker? should have punched the bastard in the back of the head. at least the whole crowd wasn't a mosh pit, I've been to gigs where that happens and you can't get out. not saying it was bad, but an exit is always good
Well Justin, I think you should try morphine.

Ice that shit.
[QUOTE=Zeke129;23511922]I like how Facepunch is vehemently anti-fun[/QUOTE]
I really don't don't see the fun aspect of being hit by someone, maybe it's just my past experiences with being hit but it generally isn't a pleasant thing.
Make a thread every time you fall down or feel pain

As I recall from a circlepit from Anti-Flag, they have some rules:
1) have fun
2) if someone falls, pick them up
Surely there is not a rule that states, smash someones head in with your elbow. What a crap that must've been. Crappy bands and crappy moshpits...

Isn't that just general mosh etiquitte?
Most people in most pits aren't really out to hurt anyone.
