re: What kind of tickets do you usually buy for concerts?

But the alternative is feeling like an old person sitting down to watch Englebert Humperdink perform.

I went to a Prince concert at UNO. Had assigned 3rd row seats right in the middle. Prince would start jamming, everbody in front of me stood up. I had no choice but to stand just to see, but I wasn't opposed to standing as it was Prince getting you into a groove.

In the 4th row, sitting (not standing) directly behind me, was former Saints NT Tony Elliot who angrily told me "Sit your arse down, boy". I tried to explain I can't see otherwise, he wouldn't hear it, so for a good 15 minutes, I half-arse sat on the folded seat that automatically flips into an upright position. He was intimidating. It was very awkward. He eventually tried to get security to make the first 3 rows sit. They basically told him no can do. He & his group eventually left.
