What is POGO?

The word Pogo should come from extreme sports, which means jumping vertically in situ. There are also sayings from acrobatic trampoline and sports competitions. My English is not good. You can check it yourself. At the rock scene, pogo image is jumping around with the rhythm of the music. Pogo in a narrow sense mainly refers to punk scenes. Pogo in a broad sense covers a series of on-site activities, such as tossing metal heads, playing folk songs, punk collisions, and workers' agitation.

Let's talk about pogo forms of different music types first.

For manic punk or new money, pogo's performance is jumping and bumps. The standard action of jumping should be vertical jumping with feet off the ground and arms folded. Bumping mainly depends on the chest and shoulders, because elbows or knees can easily cause accidental injuries to other rock fans.

For heavy metals or industries, such as ak, suffocation, zero and so on. Pogo is not jumping, but shaking and bumping. The shaking mainly depends on the waist, abdomen and neck. In rhythm, different instruments have different performances. For example, if you follow the rhythm of drums and bass, the amplitude is generally relatively large, while following the guitar is a little trick with high frequency. For some melodic music, long hair can use a 360-degree electric fan in a wide range. Or several people stand side by side in a row. If you have a few friends, you can shake your head face to face. If pogo is crowded, you can fold the back of the person in front and shake it.

For some gangsters who are not very noisy, or folk songs with cheerful rhythm, such as Buyi, New Pants and mirror, you can lightly pogo, that is, it is not a violent collision, but a small range of physical contact, and the movements are mainly nodding and swinging back and forth. You can draw a circle. Pull and jump. You can also turn a big trip into a small train (second-hand roses are especially suitable). In these cases, the focus is on fun.

For emotional rock, britpop, indie rock, nodding moderately with the melody is also a form of pogo.

If the scene is lively, you can also lift people, dive or rush to the platform.

Let's talk about the safety pogo rules again.

Everyone is here to watch the scene, not to make trouble. So pogo also needs rules.

The first is the dress code. If you are a punk, you'd better wear a dome leather coat instead of a pointed leather coat. Clothes should be light, and it is best not to have odds and ends, so as not to fall or scratch others.

The fierce form of pogo is not acceptable to everyone, so don't force everyone to Pogo, so we often warm up during the first song, which can not only prevent ourselves from being injured, but also give friends who have strayed into the position time to evacuate.

Pogo doesn't vote for thin people, women and bystanders. Similarly, don't jump in diving, girl. Pay attention to give the people in the first row a reaction time when rushing to the platform. If someone accidentally falls down, people around him have the obligation to signal and help him up. For photographers, everyone should help protect their equipment.

Pogo had better not take drugs, and everyone should also prevent people with vague expressions to avoid accidents.

Please find a safe place to keep your mobile phone, wallet and other items before Pogo.

Finally, say the pogo gesture.

I love your gesture, that is, put away your middle finger and ring finger, which is suitable for pop punk, folk songs, traditional metal and rap. It's best not to use it for heavy metal punk.

Satanic ritual, in which the middle finger and thumb are put away, is mainly used for extreme metals. Black gold and dead gold are not suitable for some new metals that praise life.

The middle finger refers to the punk who is mainly used to resist the false social morality of institutional rules. It also applies to some new gold.

Fist represents strength and can be used in any favorite music. Fists can better express support for band performers such as ak Tongtou.

Special instructions

It is forbidden to disrespect women in the name of pogo. Take advantage of girls, for example, and don't push innocent people to the pogo crowd. If a juror must obtain the consent of the client. If you see the property, you should return it to the customer. Young and strong boys should also collide moderately.

Try to show respect to some music that commemorates serious themes such as rock figures or anti-war.

Security advice

Pogo needs to do its best to prevent physical overdraft and accidental injury.

Wear glasses to protect them. Take care of your daughter-in-law It is forbidden to carry screwdriver, pencil sharpener, kitchen knife, fruit knife, gas pipe, rocket launcher and other dangerous goods. Pets are strictly prohibited.

Our aim is to support rock music happily.

Have a good time.
