I was injected with LSD in a mosh pit by some other dude one time.
Well, this thread is a clusterfuck of opinions. I guess I understand what's going on?
Just keep your eyes open, and you wont get stabbed.
As a frequenter of moshpits I can break it down for you.
Metal shows on average tend to have rougher pits where people are trying to hit one another and the like. Punk/rock shows have something called a Circle Pit. As in a previous post they are meant to have a good time. Hardcore concerts vary, sometimes people get a bit crazy, but otherwise those are fine.
If you're going in one dont expect to come out unscathed, they are optional and easy avoid. If you're a girl, you forfeit your gender given right to not being hit while in said pit, at the same time groping is still not cool. Picking people up is courtesy. Lastly, don't be an asshole and try fighting in the pit, someone will come along and remind you that its not cool, usually with their fists, knees, or elbows.

Also beware the one guy, he may or may not be there but he will be 6 feet tall and pure mass, and he will kill everything you love before you can go in a full circle in a the pit
No matter where you go
there you are.
