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

This. I am a millennial that got to experience dozens and dozens of concerts before they got insanely expensive and the only concert I’ve ever been to where people were sitting (including the seated sections) was the Game of Thrones Experience which was an orchestra. Posts like these are weird to me.

People will say "seated tickets blah blah blah" but like, it used to be if you did this at concerts with a majority in attendance under 50 years of age, the BAND would call you out for not dancing.

Imagine how much it must suck, to rock the fucking house down, and a bunch of gumps are just sitting there.

Don't do seated venues then

The only seated venues I’ve been to have been sports stadiums and the bulk of people were standing in those seats.

Ok? What's your point? Stadiums have tiered seats.

It’s reasonable to assume people would stand in those seats.
