Contrast that with when I was 22 and went to a FILTER (short bus tour) show and Richard Patrick got pissed off and started throwing water bottles at security (who said, fuck it and left). The place went absolutely crazy. I got the fuck out of the pit as quickly as possible. I swear it was mayhem in there.
Slipknot would be questionable for a young kid. When I saw Slipknot a couple of years ago Clown and other members were very vulgar (the guy with the long nose was stroking the nose like it was a cock and clown was flipping off the crowd and making jerking off motions) and Corey Taylor said fuck alot.

I do have to agree with you that today's shows are milder. I remembver going to see Pantera and Phil throwing cups of beer in the crowd and telling everyone to smoke pot and eat acid. Pantera was great live!
