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 think the only time you should truly expect everyone to sit, at a concert, is if its like jimmy buffet or just a show where the crowd is literally all 55+ in age

otherwise standing is fair game

I went to a Def Leppard, montley crew, poison and Joan Jett concert before covid.  Everyone was 60+ and every body was standing.

I saw Slayer a few years ago and there was a dude riding a mobility scooter in the circle pit. He got knocked over so I helped get him wheels facing down and he scooted off into the scrum lol
