I have said it before, but I have never understood the purpose of chairs at the floor at a rock-concert. OK, it's a money-machine but that's it.
In The Netherlands most (if not all) the big pop- and rock concerts are general admission on the floor (though they are selling more and more platimum-like tickets with a special reserved area in front of the stage), with no chairs. So you have to be early at the venue and run for your live when the doors are open (wear daipers as well) to get upfront. I'm only 5,5 so I just have to be as close as possible.
Standing up is more fun, more atmosphere etc. And no room for security to shove up hot, blond, you girls in front of Lindsey, because the last two times I was there :-)
If I sit in the tiers on the side, I always have the feeling that I'm watching other people attending a concert. If I want to be seated, I buy the DVD.
Alas, at last and forthcoming Antwerp-shows I had no choice, but then I have seen them already twice from the floor this trek.
