But letting people come up to the stage from far back in the arena just because they're young & attractive is kind of gross. I mean, it's great for the people that get to go up and I'd never begrudge them of it because it's not their fault if they get asked (and who would turn it down?) but in general it kind of skeeves me out and I do have to wonder what the purpose of it is from the band/security perspective.
I agree...it's kind of lame. This was my second show and we were super close...but to the side (which I prefer) and some woman behind me said they picked attractive people to do that. I thought whoever picked them had really, really bad taste as they were not very cute at all.

Great show though! I liked it better than the Hollywood Bowl.
