Hey guys,
When going to a gig, some like to dance to the beat of the live music right in front of the stage, while others prefer sitting down to enjoy it more comfortably, or standing quietly on the sidelines to have a little chat with their friends.
As a very short person, I generally prefer seating upstairs -if there is one-, or stand towards the back. I found trying to remain closer to the stage rather challenging in the past.
Where do you usually prefer to go when attending a gig? Do you like being right in the middle of the action, or enjoy it from a distance?

Though I'm absolutely delighted to find someone else who has heard of them, let alone seen them. Great band and Gary was a brilliant frontman...
I saw every gig they played, including headling at Birmingham Odeon with The Damned and Reading Pop & Rock Festival. Did you know that The Big Fire (song on Anvil Chorus) was a tribute to JFK? and many of the songs on Kitch are studio versions of songs they played live.

You know them better than me then @Mi-Amigo
We heard them on the Old Grey Whistle Test first and followed them as much as we could.
With two young children it wasn't always possible to get to every gig.
Though wherever we went we were always invited backstage to join in the shenanigans
We have seen them in Coventry, Birmingham, London, Leicester and a few other places. Never at a festival though...

What a coincidence, @Mi-Amigo and @Cleoriff!
@AlexYem84 You make a good point there, practicality is key
