Is this a regular occurrance at FM shows? Do most venues allow it? Does Stevie (or any of the others) shake hands similar to the "Edge Walk"?
This is my first MAC show, and I shelled out for good seats. If I am able to stand at the stage I will be positively ecstatic!
Please enlighten me, o experienced MAC fans!  |
They did during SYW. I think it was kind of tentative for the first month of shows, and then it was more or less expected and encouraged.
But, again, I agree with Luke on this. It's not GA. If they allow first 3-5 rows up there, don't run up from your 32nd row seat. People, in general, are very nice up there if you are very nice. So, even if you're a large person, don't plant yourself there like you're saving spots for 6 (*and for pity's sake, don't attempt to smuggle ALL your friends up there--which I definitely saw in a Stevie concert, during the Edge walk, where I actually moved back FROM the stage to behind second row because it was the one and only time I thought things were truly getting dangerous up there. And that was me having legitimate front row seats, seeing some guy run over from Lord knows where and then gesture to/move his pushy/rude/obnxious gal pals up to slide between the three inches between my body and his. I moved away. I had done the Edge walk thing before and let them have their moment, even if they were jerks).
It's fun and exciting. You walk away slightly deaf in one or both ears from the speakers being right there. You feel the music pounding through your body. And you see every wad of spit coming out of Mick Fleetwood's mouth during World Turning. And if that's not incentive enough for you...
