Am I being unreasonable to expect to see the bloody stage?

Why? Just why? A hairstyle to deliberately block everyone's view?

Got any scissors on you?

Haha welcome to my world, I am 5' tall and although I love live music I hate standing gigs with a passion. The tallest person in the place usually comes to stand right in front of me - I think because I am so short that it looks like there is a gap in the crowd where I am!

The tallest person in the place in these circumstances is often also wearing a hat. Even seated in the Manchester Arena recently everyone stood up and the person in front of me was wearing a hat and despite being a row below was still taller than me.

When I rule the world there will be a second barrier approx 6 feet from the stage or existing barrier. It will be 5'4 from the ground. If you can't walk under it without stooping you will have to make way for anyone who can!

That really annoys me. I've been at the theatre several times behind people who've decided to pile all their hair on the top of their heads despite knowing they are going to sit in a seat in front of others and then most likely obscure their view.

Ha ha! Where are you? 1984?

The Royal Albert Hall! £50+ seat. I wish I did have scissors! She's tall as well. I'm 5ft 2. Some people are SO bloody selfish or just plain stupid?

Ask if she fancies swapping seats with you?

My bugbear is leaving coats with furry hoods on in weekly school assembly. Again being short, my view is of shoulder, crowned by a giant plume of fur (not helped by being able to hear anything due to lots of mumbling by children who haven't learned to project their voice, and background noise from toddlers- I just bring my body along to appease DS and accept that my chances of any useful sensory input are low)

At least I haven't paid for that experience though.

I'm claustrophobic in crowds due to being stuck at armpit level.
