that's fine and good. i wasn't there, so i can't exactly vouch for you guys. but other people who have posted here have done so.
and i understand that it's not fair for you especially, because you feel singled out and that you did nothing wrong. this is most likely the case.
but it goes with the territory if you associate yourself with that behavior ("i was one of the drunk guys...")
all i'm trying to point out is that there's a certain lack of consideration for other people (ESPECIALLY at ozma shows) when "moshes" start--by drunk people no less. it may be fun for you, but you should at least realize that you're giving other people a shitty time at an otherwise awesome/joyous occasion. i fucking love ozma, too... let's not make this a contest. again, i just have a different way of getting into the music.
if anything, you do understand why people don't necessarily go "crazy" at ozma shows, right?

I don't feel singled out. I'm just trying to defend what some overly dramatic people think is offensive rock concert behavior.
Listen, it's a rock show. You may catch some moshing, you may not. I've been to plenty of Ozma shows where there hasn't been any moshing and some where there has -- in fact I've been to Ozma shows where I've hardly seen anyone moving. I totally respect people who just want to go and watch and not go "crazy" -- that's how I am most of the time I see Ozma. But if you go into a concert with the mindset that it's just going to be a bunch of people like yourself standing around listening to music, then you have another thing coming.
You want to go to a show and get close to the stage? Expect some jostling. Expect some drunk idiots pushing and yelliing. Expect some moshing. Not saying it's always going to happen. Just expect it -- even for Ozma.
