Thank you Adamrocks!! I was very offended by that comment.  Felt as though I was being chastised. I was smiling at the discussion before, because when you watch me in concert you won't know I am a fan apart from the T-shirt. I am all quiet, no movement, no dancing, mesmerised by the performence. If I can, I tape - chairdancing is good for that, no big movments . otherwise I am just ..... frozen and still and happy and in awe .... I have the time of my life, but watching me you wouldn't know ... I bet I am not the only one ... Of course you are not the only one! I learned to stand up but I also need to be quiet and preferably motionless while listening. I don't even understand how yelling or singing along can be enjoyable - wouldn't you just hear yourself? I understand about the "energy" exchange expected at a pop/rock event, but I can't contribute to it myself...I just absorb...so, ya, I prefer a classical concert setting to any of this, but Adam, and Adam only, gets me to these noisy events  ... |

To each their own, but I tend to resemble nica. I go to a concert to see and hear the performance and singing along, if I could even hear myself sing, would interfere with what I was listening to. I want to take in every auditory nuance. It's probably our classical background. Can you imagine singing along to an operatic aria? The only sing-along in classical music I am familiar with is audience participation Hallelujah Choruses. Please note: This is NOT a criticism of anyone who dances, sings, shouts, and jumps up and down during a concert. I get that enthusiasm. The only cardinal rules: 1. Don't jump up and down and spill your drink on me. 2. Don't, absolutely DON'T talk during a performance. You want to talk? Go out in the hallway. |

I think everybody can enjoy whatever kind of concert they want to go to and not have to pass on one because they can't stand the whole time. Sitting in the balcony levels you can still enjoy the electricity and energy of the concert like those who can endure standing the whole time. It's one big 'standing and sitting QAL Par-Tay' that everyone can enjoy! Thank you Adamrocks!! I was very offended by that comment. Felt as though I was being chastised.  Sometimes members don't realize how their posts come across....it happens frequently on this board I'm afraid, although I don't think offense is intended. |

Nothing at a concert bugs me more than people talking during the performance. Is just rude. |
