What is the meaning of Barricade?
A barrier constructed across a road, especially as a military defence
An obstacle, barrier, or bulwark.
A place of confrontation.
(Can we clean up this sense?) At live music concerts with a standing “pit” section, refers to standing physically right next to or in front of the barricade protecting the stage, thus being the closest audience members to the performing act. Many larger venues (and almost all festivals) have a standing general admission section in front of the stage known as the “pit”. There are barricades erected some distance from the stage for the artists’ safety. Being at the barricade means being the closest to the stage, with no other attendees in front, thus having the supposed best view of the artist.
To close or block a road etc., as, or using, a barricade.
To keep someone in (or out), using a blockade, especially ships in a port.
inflection of barricader:
first/third-person singular present indicative/subjunctive
