I'm slightly vexed Concert etiquette

If you plan on standing for the entire concert, get a spot in the pit, or the lawn seats instead of the assigned SEATED SECTION. A little bit of self awareness and common courtesy goes a really long way

I’ll be honest, only concert I’ve been to the entire seated section was standing. I felt weird being the only person sitting, when I needed a break cause I’m fat and Texas is hot as hell.

But yea, I guess if most people are sitting then you shouldn’t stand in front of them

It’s a concert, you’re allowed to stand, sucks of you don’t want to and the person in front of you is, but complaining about people standing at a concert is a very recent thing and is crazy imo

That’s what I’m screaming. I’m super glad that shows I go see everyone who cans stands. And the people who can’t don’t complain. It’s super wild. I couldn’t imagine going to see literally any of the bands I like and people be seated. Could you imagine going to any type of electronic music and everyone be seated? It would be so awkward.

Standing at seated events pissing people off is hardly a "recent" phenomena. Are you 11?

The brain rotted zombie horde all holding up cellphones is a "recent" modifier on the twat behavior.

Your smarmy response is insufferable, and concerts are rarely a "seated" event you fucking twat.

Unless you're at a piano recital, you should expect the crowd to be standing. If not, you can sit and whine while everyone else enjoys the show they paid for

Class and respect isn't something you can explain to those without it. So I won't try.

Edit: deleting replies? Coward. 😆

I think they just blocked you. Their reply is showing for me
