Hi Linda - I totally understand your frustration....I was "going to town" singing and dancing at the last Train concert I went to, and a few folks near me were very quiet....I worried I was bothering them, I hope not! I guess its just different styles.....

My daughter and I are going to our first Train concert tomorrow night in Philly.  She's bouncing all the walls with excitement.  She doesn't know how to sit at a concert and I'm proud of that!  My boyfriend is a Rush maniac (I designed his shoulder tattoo) and I was surprised at how many people sat at the two Rush shows I attended.  It didn't make sense to me.  Yup, I bought a "seat" but that doesn't mean I'll use it. :D

If you're at the Mann tomorrow look for us!  My daughter has BRIGHT red hair.  Yup, she looks like Disney's Ariel.  If you're facing the stage we're on the right.  We'll be the ones whose butts only touch the seat before the shows.

 Music effects everyone different, maybe that's just the way that certain people like to enjoy the music while they are watching one of their favorite bands play. Some people like to sit and observe while others like to jump up and scream..... to each thier own. Just try not to bother other people and get in the way of watching the band while doing it :)

I felt so sad that i was in the 2nd row and singing dancing up on my feet knowing the words to every song. Yet the people next to us knew no words to any song they were so drunk they could hardly stand up.

What a waste. I was in the 2nd row in KC, danced and sang the whole time. For the amount paid for those tickets, they will really regret that when they realized what they missed. Too bad those tickets were not enjoyed by someone who would have LOVED to be that close. Oh, I guess that would be me...ha ha.

Yeah, that's what I had hoped too, but the greeting happened before the show, so I could not get as close to the stage as I would have liked. But the standing area wasn't full when I got in there, so I got reasonably close. Still plenty close enough to admire Pat lol!! Plus, you can just keep telling yourself that even though you aren't right at the stage, you already got closer to the guys than the rest of those people ever will. XD

Funny story, last summer I saw Train and Maroon 5, sat in the third row. There was a family of three sitting in the 2nd row right in front of us. Mom, Dad, and teenage girl (about 14-15ish). I am not kidding you - the teenage girl was literally sitting in her chair, READING A BOOK, while her parents were standing and dancing!

WHO DOES THAT? I was glad I didnt have someone tall in front of me, blocking my view.

I noticed that at Peabody last month-all the people in the row I was in seemed like they were asleep. I was singing and enjoying myself and I enjoyed every minute. I guess they were either made to go by someone or they were just deadbeats. =/ I also noticed this at a blues festival I went to a couple of weekends ago-I enjoyed myself, and had a great time. Everyone else was just like "oh whatever". I go to concerts to have fun but I guess other people don't. I don't know though. =/

Even worse than not getting up are the people who talk through the whole show!  Why are you even there?  Had a couple in front of me at the last show that didn't shut up once.
