“The mosh pit is for FLINTA!*” – Timo Warkus

And let’s be honest: Team Scheisse’s live performances are really good! Although the crowd shakes and rages, jumps, screams and sweats, no one goes down, this is ensured right from the start – humorously but emphatically: “We’ve experienced too much shit, we don’t want that at our concerts. So: don’t grope anyone. Look out for each other, don’t hurt anyone, help each other up if someone falls. And: Leave ALL your T-shirts on!”

Timo Warkus and the rest of the gang convey this beforehand eit really starts. The audience apparently also finds mindfulness cool and greatöAccording to the fourth song, Warkus speaks again and asks for a circle in the front rows. And then the resulting mosh pit should only go to the Flinta* peopleören. The Cis-Dudes like me often take up too much space. They’re paying attention nowön make sure that the FLINTA* let off steam können, without tons of loveuto be bulldozed by drunk guys!

In the end, the euphoric atmosphere in the room resembles a stadium where the favorite team has just won. Team shit showthat punk also and above all im mindfuln Works together. (Side fact: FC St. Pauli played against FC Schalke on the same evening, just a few meters away as the crow flies. Maybe that’s why there was a crackling noise in the air.)
