A dance, associated with punk rock, invented by Sid Vicious (of the Sex Pistols). The dance is mainly characterized by jumping; everything else is optional.
The name is derived from the pogo stick.
Required: Jump!
Optional: Failing arms, kicking, thrashing, banging into people, and grinning like an idiot, or keeping arms and/or torso stiff and bouncing like a pogo stick.
Although it can seem violent to an outsider, pogo is all in fun - nothing to do with aggression - and though people occasionally get injured, those who fall are often helped up instead of being mashed by poser combat boots. It's a general understanding between concert-goers.
I couldn't see the band because all the poser mohawks were cutting my view, so I pogo danced through the whole set. Now I can't walk.

jumping up and down to music at a concert.
example from AFI lyrics "i wanna get a mohawk"
"I may be ten years old but I still know what's up
I wear my Cramp shirt almost every single day
I wanna sag my pants, I wanna pogo dance
But mom won't let me so I might just run away"

pertains to Oi! punks or street punks, and how they dance at shows.
kids jump up and down during certain songs. They start pogo dancing to show they appreciate the music.
