I saw that Clash of the Titans show at Madison Square Garden. Everyone had to pass through metal detectors, but once inside, the place was a total melee. The temporary seats on the floor were completely torn up by the crowd to create a mosh pit - and the fans in the permanent seats ripped out the cushions and used them like frisbees. Slayer had to stop playing and admonish the crowd that they "weren't being cool."
I was working for a record label at the time and went with a bunch of my friends as a goof, but you are absolutely right: "The show ROCKED."
