At MSG I plan on standing up the ENTIRE PJ set, im in the 2nd and 3rd rows for both nights.. I will be in the 300's will I get heckled? I really don't feel like sitting down during a FUCKING Pearl Jam concert.

Does everyone basically stand?

I really don't care.. from the moment they go on until they leave im standing and rocking out. Will I get the occasional a hole?

    everyone will be standing the whole time, and everyone will be rocking out in their own ways, as long as you are not the jackass who always yells during a quiet moment no one will care what you do.

    Have FUN

    I was 16, with a serious medical condition, and still stood up for the entire show.

    There is no way I'm siiting at all for MSG! :)

    To correct myself, I have had a couple of shows where I needed to catch my breathe during a break. I never had anyone say anything to me about it though, but if someone did, they would have been politely told to fuck off.

    who cares man...if they don't have the ability to stand up for an entire concert, they shouldn't be at one.

    and given that...they're at a rock concert and should expect people to be standing and watching.

    You never ever sit at a rock concert... NEVER!! (ok, during breaks is fine)

    Story: I went to see the White Stripes at the Auditorium Theater in Chicago, had front row balcony seats. Everyone behind us was sitting down and yelling at us for standing. We ended up sitting, but it nearly ruined the show for us. Where the fuck did they think they were? Was it because of the nicer venue?

    about sitting, does it count if it's something like black or parting ways and you just want to sit and let it soak in?
