I did and this one exploded into a massive Brawl
It was Unearth (Headlining), Bleeding Through, Animosity, and Terror....
And when Bleeding Through came on every BT fan just when insane, this is not like moshing when on everywhere it was fights brutal fights you couldn't get out of one without getting into another, people where bleeding like crazy and others where just getting wailed upon....
And this one guy unbolted a theater chair by kicking the crud out of it then drop kicking it then brought it IN TO THE MOSH PIT!
after a third of the people left either do to injuries or getting kicked out Underoath came on and it seem fine but there where still some fights starting every once in awhile
I ending up needing to get 7 stitched for a cut under my jaw and I lost two teeth...
And I am going to see Bleeding Through again with Bullet for my Valentine
also if any of you don't believe me, go to this tour there doing with Bullet go to a show and wear Eyeliner I dare you....
It is how some kids got spotted and beaten when Bleeding Through toured with H.I.M.

Well first off keep in mind everything was way over priced, bottles of water were even like $10. So people were kinda pissed. During the last set which happened to be the Chili Peppers one of the speaker towers caught on fire. RHCP saw it and started playing "Fire" (Jimi Hendrix). Then the fire spread to one of the merch tents and when the employees evacuated people rushed the burning tent for free t-shirts and stuff. During the looting of the burning tent someone yelled "FOOD!" and the people who were now pretty hungry after not eating much for the past few days as it was expensive as hell started charging toward the food court area. The vendors jumped ship and the crowd took over the food stands. I dont mean they just took stuff I mean they started working the stands and making more food and giving it out to people for free. It all went down hill from there, but I would mention that the area that was full of hippie vendors who werent trying to rip people off was left alone.

yup I was at a dimmu borgir concert, unearth and devildriver were opening.
when devildriver came on, there were CONSTANT fights (i mean blood..). There were people that looked like they were master black belts at some kind of karate and were wailing on people.
Then they did the "devil driver circle" which just made it crazier!
I was in the pit btw, managed to avoid getting into too many fights.
oh and I forgot to mention... people who were outside of the pit decided to buy GLASS bottles and throw them at people in the pit.
Needless to say they got their asses kicked (by about 30 people who ran out of the pit and charged them) and were kicked out of the venue.
but it's funny how in all the concerts i've gone to with pits and fighting, EVERYBODY just STOPS when the band finishes a song.
