No we were not asked to remain in our seats...we didn't.
I talked to the film crew before it started, since we were going to be in their way, to make sure of what we could do or not do and they told me to just do what you normally would at a show. But, yes, most in the audience sat until GYOW. Christy, her mom, myself and my best friend were up and rocking when we felt like it! It was just a different vibe being taped. It's almost like people didn't know they were allowed to get up, or talk to him during the show etc...if that makes sense.
