Members The Aardvark Posted July 5, 2007 Members Share Posted July 5, 2007 I saw the Police on Monday in St. Louis. (They were great by the way :love:) We were sitting in the nose-bleed section in the back off to one side. The couple directly in front of us stood the entire concert. They were the only ones standing in our section. No, they didn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Bonoman Posted July 5, 2007 Members Share Posted July 5, 2007 God forbid somebody should try to enjoy themselves at a rock n' roll show... Let him dance. That's what people do at concerts. Or, that's what they do at the good ones, anyhow. If people couldn't see, guess what? They've got legs, too! They could stand up also. And who knows? Maybe the rhythm will even get to them and they might tap their feet also. Regardless, I don't think you should be feeling quite as proud of yourself as you seem to. It's funny to ruin somebody's good time? Next time you have a parade, I hope it rains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. But it is funny that when he thought I was complaining about him standing he was cavalier and indifferent and then 3 seconds later was crying. "Instant Karma gonna get you..." I wasn't really trying to hurt his feelings, it is just apparently hard not to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Thumper Posted July 5, 2007 Members Share Posted July 5, 2007 It's funny. I've gone to a number of concerts (Bonnie Raitt, Bruce Cockburn, Richard Thompson) in PDX and seen people doing the trippy-hippy dance thing. It's all well and good for them to 'express themselves', but heaven forbid when someone asks them to show some courtesy to other concert goers and not block their view.

Members basste Posted July 5, 2007 Members Share Posted July 5, 2007 agree. They are in a place where everybody sit down, so sit down if they suck other's view. You can't dance when sit downed, but you can sing, clap hands, move your leg with the beat.... and respect all others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members hi.flyer Posted July 5, 2007 Members Share Posted July 5, 2007 It's good to know that the groovamatic funkatronic bass forum is so resolutely opposed to dancing. It's true, though, if the guy really wanted to get down, he should've gone down to the floor or what have you. You know, there's generally that area right in front of the stage.

I'm not opposed to dancing, I'm opposed to inconsiderate assholes gratifying themselves while ruining experiences other people paid to have. Nothing wrong with dancing, there's a place for it. That place isn't in your assigned seat, if doing so blocks other peoples' views. How would you feel if someone sitting in front of you in a movie theater decided to stand and dance through the whole movie, blocking your view? It's exactly the same thing.

It's funny to ruin somebody's good time? Next time you have a parade, I hope it rains. I sing along with the songs quite loud at concerts, to the point where I'm as loud as the singer in the band I'm watching. People don't seem to like it, as I have a bad voice, but screw them, I'm enjoying the concert. If they don't like my singing, they have lungs too. It's just what people do at concerts, and they should know that I'm going to be interrupting their enjoyment of the band they paid to see. The way I see it, I paid to get in and watch the band, and everyone else paid to get in and watch me watch the band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Svi Posted July 5, 2007 Members Share Posted July 5, 2007 Bull{censored}, there's aisles, foyers, lobbys, and parking lots for that sort of thing. Aisles aren't meant for dancing. I'm not sure where I stand on this one. When we went to the Who concert awhile back, it was half and half. Half were standing, half were sitting. If I'm sitting, do you think I'm going to tell the other half to sit down? No way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
