I agree. Chairs are poo! Nobody wants to sit during a rock concert. They wanna jump about and dance! I do think they should reconsider selling alcohol at gigs though. A lot of people may disagree but there are several good reasons for banning it:

1) It dehydrates you, so your more likely to faint or collapse from exhaustion - anyone at Hyde Park last year can vouch for that one!!

2) People who 'over-indulge' and puke everywhere! Not good when everyone's packed like sardines and can't escape the flight-path!

3) People who 'over-indulge' and get aggressive or over-exuberant and try to push and punch their way forward through the crowd!

I think perhaps partitioning the crowd into specific pens that can hold maybe 1000-2000 people would be good. It would allow people free access to nearby gangways between pens and better distribution of cups of water and emergency access by ground-staff and stewards.
