mosh

mosh
verb /mɒʃ/
a) To dance by intentionally jumping into and colliding with other, similarly behaving dancers, and performing other wild, aggressive, or spastic movements.

From 9 in the morning (when It Dies Today played the lot) until 9 at night (when Ozzy Osbourne led Black Sabbath on the main stage), hardy fans cheered and moshed and staggered through a stifling but often exciting day.

b) To intentionally jump into and collide with another, similarly behaving dancer at a concert.
