Warped Tour's Kevin Lyman comments on 'mosh pit' controversy

Kevin Lyman of Warped Tour recently addressed the prohibition on using terms like "mosh pit." Lyman took to Twitter to explain and discuss it over the past few days:

If you [join a mosh pit, it's] fine. [But] if the bands do it they become responsible for all the injuries that occur, people do not take responsibility. In America that leads to many lawsuits; [have you] ever sat in one? I have been through many, no fun and costly. [Instead of waiting for the bands to call for it] start one on your own and be a leader.

(Rest assured though, that pits are still happening. The picture next to this article is our pal MC Lars doing his part as documented on our Instagram.)
