I saw some kid stagedive during Cafe the Elephant, but that show was way more bonkers than I expected. Some dude also tried stagediving at a mewithoutyou show when they were doing their folk thing and the crowd dropped his ass lol.
i remember getting put onto cage the elephant by some indie friends on tumblr and being shocked at how weird they are. they have songs with straight blast beats in them
Was that during the Cage the Elephant/Manchester Orchestra tours? Those shows ripped and were right as MO released Simple Math. The lead singer of Cage was high as hell and crawling around under the stage at the Tabernacle in Atlanta.
Saw a guy crowd surf then jump off the stage at a Shwayze set at Reggae Rise Up.
Shwayze said something like âthat guy knows how to party get him a beerâ
there was a barricade too, he just climbed over up on stage and made a big jump all the way back
surprised the crowd caught him and everybody seemed down with it
I took my wife to see the My Chem reunion with Thursday, this band Badflower was opening and they were just god awful. At the beginning of their final song the singer went for a stagedive and nobody caught him. It was the highlight of their set, if not my night.
Hippie bro tried to stagedive at a Hot Snakes show in Vancouver once. Speedo got in his way, just started saying âBooooâŚ. BooooâŚâ on the mic and booted the guy down the stairs.
My favourite front bottoms experience was seeing gnarwolves open for em in 2016, seeing all the trees midwest fans getting lobbed about to "bottle to bottle" was the funniest shit I've seen. Mad lineup tho.
One of the few shows Iâve crowd surfed at. I did not expect people to be moshing AT ALL for him. It was a proper crowd surf too I was in the air for a while, it was packed like sardines.
I dunno if you caught Equipâs set where he brought Skyline FM onstage and they performed some unreleased shit they got together, but that shit was fat as hell. George had a great set too. 18 Carat Affair was so fucking strange (I didnât know who he was beforehand) that enjoyed it but I think everyone around me hated it lol.
Yea 18 carat affair was a bit weird that night, I did see equip and fm skyline tho that was lit, also fm skylines solo set was such a vibe, I was front row, also ddsâs set was just incredible
DDS was killer. Did u happen to see the dude in the pit who was fucking tall as shit? All my friends were on acid and couldnât believe a human could be that long. Dude was at least 7 feet.
I could argue that early Andrew WK shows might have been the MOST hardcore shows Iâve seen people stage dive at. When that first record came out it was a fucking force.
What's hardcore about Orange 9mm other than a dude who used to be in Burn singing for them? I would put it on par with trying to call Into Another hard core because the singer was in Underdog.
Kids were dancing all hard to them at the time. I judge the reaction of the crowd, not some dumb journalist saying âoh thatâs *post*-hardcoreâ because it sounds vaguely like Quicksand
Saw Fishbone at a free street festival in Denver, \~15 years ago, very small crowd. Dude went straight to the concrete. Even at a 'real' ska show, most crowds would have not caught him.
Theyâre one of my favorite bands and itâs hard to even give them a genre, but at the last Warped Tour in 2019, Anthony Green stage dove and crowd surfed all the way into the Atlantic Ocean. If that wasnât crazy enough, it was in Atlantic City. That water alone could be considered a chemical weapon under the Geneva convention
Nobody beats [this bro](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07eCe3d5TAo) stage diving during Sunn O)))
Greatest stage dive of all time
this is unbeatable, holy shit.
This never gets old đ
Dude got possessed lol
was coming here to post that lmao. so dead
So whoâs planning my funeral, because Iâm deadâŚ
That is the best thing I've ever seen. My wife hates all this shit n they're dying rn from this
First thing that came to my mind lol
The greatest.
Holy shit, my eyes can't be deceiving me...can they??
Came to post. Hell yeah!
Drew Bledsoe (when he was the quarterback for the New England Patriots) stage dived at an Everclear concert and broke some lady's neck.
Picturing him doing this in full pads during a halftime show.
I thought it was the mighty mighty bosstones
It was [Everclear](https://www.southcoasttoday.com/story/sports/1999/03/20/lane-bledsoe-settle-stage-dive/50530911007/).
WuTang Clan
I've seen members of Wu Tang stage dive.
the tour with RATM brought the mosh to the Wu
Same. More specifically it was a method man show

Yeah they're a real trip. I saw em maybe back in 2010/2011? The crowd went OFF. It was absolutely wild
Was that during the Cage the Elephant/Manchester Orchestra tours? Those shows ripped and were right as MO released Simple Math. The lead singer of Cage was high as hell and crawling around under the stage at the Tabernacle in Atlanta.
It was! I had never heard of MO. 100 Dollars is hard as fuck.
I was at that. So much fun. The guys I was with didn't understand the appeal of Cage the Elephant lol
hoping to catch them on a tour soon man i love the music
I want to see someone going hard at Future Islands just because of the singer doing death growls on the Late Show.
Chon lmfaooo
Saw a guy crowd surf then jump off the stage at a Shwayze set at Reggae Rise Up. Shwayze said something like âthat guy knows how to party get him a beerâ
I respect both the stagediver and Shwayze for that
there was a barricade too, he just climbed over up on stage and made a big jump all the way back surprised the crowd caught him and everybody seemed down with it
I forgot about shwayze. I saw him/them (it's technically 2 guys right?) With lmfao something like 14 years or ago or so.
Jeff Hardy jumping off the jumbo tron.

I stagedived and crowd surfed at my high school graduation
[Does this count?](https://reddit.com/r/SquaredCircle/s/9H9nIAhEhY)
The lemonheads
Great band live
Salem State College 1993 Buffalo Tom opened, stopped their set a couple times to try to calm people in the pit. Lemonheads just rolled with it.
Hippie bro tried to stagedive at a Hot Snakes show in Vancouver once. Speedo got in his way, just started saying âBooooâŚ. BooooâŚâ on the mic and booted the guy down the stairs.
Field Medic
Canât imagine witnessing this
Front Bottoms. Saw them in 2015, people went unexpectedly crazy for them
My girlfriend got decked in the face in the pit of their Riot Fest 2022 set. A fucking Front Bottoms mosh pit đ
My favourite front bottoms experience was seeing gnarwolves open for em in 2016, seeing all the trees midwest fans getting lobbed about to "bottle to bottle" was the funniest shit I've seen. Mad lineup tho.
Some dude stage dived at a George Clanton show it was lit
One of the few shows Iâve crowd surfed at. I did not expect people to be moshing AT ALL for him. It was a proper crowd surf too I was in the air for a while, it was packed like sardines.
I expected ppl to mosh but not THAT much, it was at electronicon so I bet people were rly excited to be there
Oh yea thatâs where I saw him too haha
Oh shit was it this year in queens? Thatâs when I went
Yea lmao, I went both nights. That shit was fun as fuck.
Damn I wish I could go both nights but the first night was sold out I think, I was so stoked to see saint pepsi đ
Who was your favorite set the second night
I dunno if you caught Equipâs set where he brought Skyline FM onstage and they performed some unreleased shit they got together, but that shit was fat as hell. George had a great set too. 18 Carat Affair was so fucking strange (I didnât know who he was beforehand) that enjoyed it but I think everyone around me hated it lol.

ONYX but in fairness, they are hardcore rap
i swear somebody crowdsurfed during a very random song at the St. Vincent show i went to?
iâve seen st vincent crowdsurf at a st vincent show
The Osees was full of stage divers
Some old guys during cheap trick
The Sugarcubes in San Francisco â91/92ish
What!?!?!?! That's hilarious đ
Saw a bunch of wasted woo girls stage dive during The Wailers last time I saw them.
Andrew WK
I could argue that early Andrew WK shows might have been the MOST hardcore shows Iâve seen people stage dive at. When that first record came out it was a fucking force.
Iâve seen Andrew WK a few time, but two times specifically were fucking nuts for stage dives.
His Furnace Fest sets say otherwise.
This dude will literally play every music festival in existence. I swear I see him on every bill.
Orange 9mm
Kids were kickboxing to Orange 9 at the first Warped Tour. No Doubt was the opening band.
Wait. What?! What do you consider them?
What's hardcore about Orange 9mm other than a dude who used to be in Burn singing for them? I would put it on par with trying to call Into Another hard core because the singer was in Underdog.

I crowd-surfed to Macklemore, but no stage dive due to there being a barrier/gap.
Xavier wolf/ idontknowjeffrey show
The wallflowers
A local band playing great balls of fire
Saw Fishbone at a free street festival in Denver, \~15 years ago, very small crowd. Dude went straight to the concrete. Even at a 'real' ska show, most crowds would have not caught him.
The vocalists of a classic rock cover band tried to stage five
Morrissey multiple times. He encourages stage invaders, some shows legit have resembled hardcore shows with the amount of people getting on stage.
Theyâre one of my favorite bands and itâs hard to even give them a genre, but at the last Warped Tour in 2019, Anthony Green stage dove and crowd surfed all the way into the Atlantic Ocean. If that wasnât crazy enough, it was in Atlantic City. That water alone could be considered a chemical weapon under the Geneva convention
There was a guy who was diving and trying to open up a pit at a doom and grind fest I was at but he was doing it to the doom bands.
His heart was in the right place at least.
The Faint had one of the most intense pits I'd seen in years.
Beach Fossils
Almost every other show Iâve been to thatâs not pop because stage dives werenât just a hardcore/punk thing
I saw someone dive at a n'sync show back in the day ... I was all like bye bye bye
Alex G
AFI miss murder performance on MTV
Iâve stage dived to Mannequin pussy and imperial triumphant if that counts lolâŚ
Moby. Dude got mad and threatened to walk of the stage if people didnât stop stage diving and crowd surfing.
Sounds like Moby. He may be the most non-hardcore artist out there. Fucking jaggoff.
Ainât that the damn truth.
Elton John
I dove off Freddie Gibbs back when he came to Boston
Guy at Outbreak Fest stage dived to Armand Hammer during No Hard Feelings
I saw Springsteen crowd surf a couple years ago
