Foul Ball Netting at Wrigley

This will be the first time I haven't been in the pit for PJ at Wrigley. I currently have aisle seats in Section 11 (3rd base line, next to Section 10, 5 rows from the dugout). I know there's been netting installed down the 1st/3rd base line, but haven't been there since it was put in place. Has anyone been to a Wrigley concert recently with seats behind the netting? Does it screw up your depth perception of the stage in center field? Or is it something that "eventually" blends in with your sight vision? Just trying to figure out if I need to go higher in the stands or keep what I've got. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

    I don't remember it being a big issue for us. Once it gets dark I don't think you can really tell

    I'll be dealing with this in Fenway.  I hope it goes unnoticed after a few songs.  To be honest my sunglasses have scratches throughout the lenses and I don't notice so the net will probably be fine lol

    I was there for Dead & Co last summer, it was annoying seeing it before the show started, but once they were playing i didn’t notice it or think about it once the rest of the night.
    second night i was in the upper deck which is above the netting, so wasn’t an issue.
