I find it really depends on where you see them, what kind of venue, how old the people in audience, etc. Most of the times I've been to a Sonic Youth show there has been lots of standing w/ isolated pockets of movement. Never seen really obnoxious moshing, very light if any. I'm the kind of guy that wants to move but w/out slamming into people and shit, usually (although there was moshing when they played teenage riot which I enjoyed and was understandable if not a little contrived.) Every time I've seen them has been in New York, and there are a lot of boring, too-cool stare types in the audience usually. It really just depends.
