Some credit Sid Vicious of the Sex Pistols with starting the Pogo as a way to mock wanna-be Punk fans in the crowd, but it took off and became synonymous with the genre. Dances like the Pogo where you kept your body stiff and bounced around merged into full on mosh pits where all abandon left your body. But they also knew their audiences wanted to party and work off some weekday stress. Punk Rock may have started out as a rebellious music genre full of angst, resentment, political commentary, and a whole lot of attitude.
