Rock concerts are uncivilized. That's what you get when you allow or encourage all this standing & moving about. Security is powerless against most of it.

I hate this too...when I saw Paul McCartney at Madison Square Garden this was a huge problem...and I KNOW the people trying to get to the front did not pay the near $400 I did for my ticket...I was PISSED!! ANd I got into it with many people that night....it's just rude....if anyone had tried to bowl me over when I had front row I would not have been happy....
That being said, it does depend on how it's done and what the venue is like...when I saw Stevie in Albuquerque (TISL) a bunch of us crowded to the front and we all made room for one another and it was a fun joyous event....no pushing, no swearing at each other...(at least where I was standing) we were all just relishing in the fact that we were standing right in front of Ms. Nicks herself....
So yeah...just my little ramble...
