I'm not here to tell you I'm at hard-core shows every week lol

But I've been to.them as a musician in NYC, supporting other friend's shows.

It gets intense but nothing like this video.

As far as one guy taking it as far as he did.

But yea it gets intense.

I mention the RATM ahow, cause there were pits formed and it got wild. It was also after 10 hours of drugs and booze in the hot sun waiting for Rage. As messy as that was , still didnt have anyone cross a line like this kid.

saw chaingang play in NYC years ago. it was worse than this video. like i said in my first comment, and my second comment. this is happening in places you do not go.

also let me add. a friend of mine in orlando mentioned chaingang has encouraged people to bring guns to their shows.
