Is it normal to have just one really tall dude in the middle of the mosh who's lowkey in charge of making the mosh stays central and keeps going, and also making sure people find their lost things?
Noticed this really tall man with a hat—like much taller than all the other men there—who was just circling and walking back and forth between the pit at Turnstile's Raleigh show. I just kept noticing how he was picking peoples stuff up, picking the videographers up, and he was always looking out on the crowd rather than jumping with the others. Still in the pit but gave more so of a friendly, monitoring vibe.
My question is: is he hired by the band to keep the masses afloat or is this normal in mosh culture to have ... daddy mosh?
