I don't really care for stadium shows to be honest. I'd pick Giant's because I hate general admission shows.

To be quite honest, having seats is really nice. Not to sit in them during the show, but just to have some space between yourself and the person next to you. In Europe, things look way too smooshed for my taste, as I don't need to be that up close and personal with the person next to me. Not to mention the fact that getting to pee without losing your spot is a beautiful thing.

Most of us don't sit though! And I'm with Brooke on this one--it is nice to be able to go to the bathroom and come back to your own spot. And it's nice not to be crammed into the people around you. I like my personal space.

The funny thing is that I'm more offended by "Yankee" than "poof." ROTFLMAO

I absolutely prefer GA. I was a 3 shows in the USA (beside 3 shows in a club which aren't seated of course) and it was a permanent coming and going of the people who went and came from getting something to drink, changing seats with someone etc. It was really disturbing, all the time it went "sorry", "excuse me" etc. when someone wanted to pass me. I got the feeling the people didn't come for the show but for drinking and talking. And most of the times they were sitting, esp. when not Jon was in the focus on stage but Richie or David. From my block to the stage in my view direction there were maybe 5 people standing during Richie's and esp. David's performance (long piano intro). Everyone else was sitting or running around.

Here in Germany also people died at concerts and they changed the law that we have to have double barricaded areas but still we don't have seats and hopefully never will. Beside that the seats at Giants were that bad that I thought they will break down any minute and I'm for sure not fat (I sat befor the show started). I wonder how these cheap thin seats will hold someone who weighs 30 or something pounds more than I do. The chairs were nothing but disturbing and a waste of space. I was 30th row from the stage but in a distance like 100s row in Europe because of the chairs inbetween the rows. They are absolutely useless.

But if you think about it, it isn't so different from Europe where you probably have the people in front of you, behind you and on the side of you constantly bumping into you. Both ways have their pros and cons. It is all a matter of what you are used to that makes the difference.

That is the time to pee, hence the running around. Hehe
