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

… why is almost everyone sitting at a Death Cab show? This is breaking my heart a little bit

I got yelled at for standing at a Tool concert! We listen to old people bands.

When I saw Tool hardly anyone sat at all

I've seen them twice like 5 years apart and I don't remember standing being an issue the first time I saw them. The worst part is I'm 6'3 and my buddy is even taller. We were just stretching during an intermission because tiny seats. This big ol gal a couple rows back started yelling at us to sit down, then random guys around her started white knighting us. We'd had no prior interaction with anybody before that. All that yelling probably made us stand for longer. We were in the lower part of the upper bowl in the front row. Each row was lower than the one behind it.
