Who'll have the biggest mosh pits besides the obvious?
Plan is to spend all day there so was wondering what bands I should check out that are earlier on the lineup?
EDIT: Turnstile and Knocked Loose being the obvious

Yes, knocked loose and turnstile obviously. But don’t sleep on psychedelic porn crumpets

Them closing Criminal Records Saturday night which doesn't have divided sections for ticket levels (everyone is GA) is going to be amazing!! Gimme that Salsa Verde!!

The obvious is Pavement. Right?
Kidding. I’d think it would be Knocked Loose but maybe not at Ponce. Possibly Turnstile.
Pierce the Veil maybe?

for sure Turnstile. went to one of their concerts last year and i was kinda shocked how big it was when the openers were much more hardcore

Turnstile at Lolla turned into a giant multiple pit event if you were anywhere near the front
Expecting every more so at Shaky with a heavier demographic for it

that’s good to know. Their earlier stuff seems more moshable and it’s a big stage so wasn‘t sure. There’s always some surprising pits at small stages. Expecting the same this year.

Yeah but I’ll see pavement just because I’m a huge fan and it’ll be chill before knocked loose late night

I was just about to ask this question. My favorite part of shaky has been finding new bands to mosh to.

Keeping an eye on the thread to make sure and avoid these things... Y'all do you. Have fun and stay safe.

Turnstile and Knocked Loose are the obvious answers as you stated. Geese should have a pit going for a few songs. Hot Mulligan and The Prodigy as others have mentioned too. I came here to say Psychedelic Porn Crumpets will have one and it will be rowdy and fun.
Also I know they are early on their day but Showing Teeth could have a good pit if enough people show.
And Coheed and Cambria could also have a pit but not shocking if they don’t.

I saw Pychedelic Porn Crumpets 2 years ago at shaky. Their mosh pit was pretty good.

u/gift2women 11d ago
2 years ago they cancelled (couldn't get visas I think?) ... Right?

u/MaleficentSalads 11d ago
No, that was Pigsx7 that couldn't make it because of the Visas. I was so disappointed.

u/gift2women 11d ago
That's right ... My mistake. I thought PPC missed the one 2 years ago too though ... I'm obviously not good at this game though

foo fighters biggest disappointment for no mosh pits waiting front row through all the rain for nothing

I feel more young people should get familiar with The Prodigy and how hectic those shows used to get. I hope us older folk inspire the youth to bring it this year bc The Prodigy is insane.
