i've always been lucky i guess. never camped out and always managed to get either front row or front row right after the circle in Portugal. i have a pic somewhere... i'll post it when i find it. abroad, GC works just fine as people are more spread out and that allows me to leave enough space in front of me so i can see the stage perfectly, while still being close to it.



it's a totally different experience, a totally different vibe. i personally avoid the stands as the atmosphere is not as good. that's never an option i would consider in normal circumstances, and that's definitely a no-no for Jovi. the only 2 times i watched a band in the stands i ended up feeling disappointed with the show and that had everything to do with where i was (i'm not counting with Jovi in 89, i was 10 so that was a different situation). it's just not the same and like you said, i wouldn't have it any other way either. a lot of the excitement is lost. i'm much more willing to risk having backs in my face than having to buy a seat. i hate it that much.
