This was my second time attending throwdown. This year it was at the Citizens Bank arena in Ontario. During Jamey Johnson's performance, I was asked by security to sit down and remain seated until the show was over.
I was extremely irritated since Jamey Johnson was the artist I was looking forward to seeing the most. When someone behind me asks me to sit down at a concert, which is a regular occurence at concerts, my response is always the same polite "no." Unless they are handicapped, or over the age of 75, there is no rule against standing at concerts.
I kindly explained myself to the security guard, but she didnt care how amazing Jamey Johnson was, she threatened to kick me out.
Jamey Johnson gave an unbelievable performance. If the people behind me were true fans, they would have been standing too.
The security guard ruined the concert. Sitting down during a performance is lousy and shows no appreciation or grattitude towards the artist.
