                No, you're right.  In fact I don't see why gigs can't all be
seated ones
                so that we can relax and enjoy the show.  And they should
bring round
                ice cream during the interval. They should also throw out
anyone who
                talks during a gig and spoils everyone else's enjoyment.

                I've heard that some folks believe there should be some sort
of minimum
                dress code. I'm not so sure about that, so long as these
people are
                acquainted with soap and water, have their hair cut above
their ears and
                don't make a nuisance of themselves.
