I am probably in the minority here but if someone buys a seat in the front row- they should be entitled to sit in it occasionally and not be obstructed .People with seats in the 4th row on have their seats downgraded by having three extra rows of people standing in front of them. If the band is so concerned about the "real fans" getting close then make the ticket prices less expensive and do away with VIP packages platinum seats, etc. Last year at Jones Beach people were in front of me- I went form the 6th row to the 10th row with all the extra people- and I paid for a platinum seat. There were people standing in the aisles- a fire hazard and general overall lack of respect for the purchaser of the ticket/Finally if this type of "festival seating" is a practice then it should indicated as such on TM where tix are purchased- otherwise when one buys a ticket in the 4 row- and really sees the show from the 8th row- then the customer, not knowing at the time of purchase this could happen has been defrauded. The tix are "Reserved Seats", not "General Admission".

I have to agree and disagree. Honestly, I think all seats she vary in price by location, and if they all did letting people rush the stage would be unacceptable. However, technically (aside from platinum seats) all floor seats have the same face value. Someone in the very back row pays the same as someone in row 1. This of course doesn't always hold true when you factor in "platinum seats" and sites like stubhub.
