Remain Seated

We went to see Elvis once.  It was a great concert.  Everyone dressed nicely and sat in their seats and enjoyed a performance that only Elvis could do.  That was our first ‘big time’ concert.  Since then we have tried to enjoy other performers, but things have changed.

Today you have to pay a mortgage payment to take an evening to go and be entertained by a big name performer.  And what happens?  It doesn’t matter where your seats are, you can’t see or hear.  Time was when you went to a concert people only stood to give an ovation.  Nope not today.  Everyone stands during the entire performance so that no one can see or hear.  Is this a testimony to our society?  Yes, it is. 

We have become a nation of rudeness and stupidity.  It makes no sense to stand when everyone would enjoy themselves more by remaining in the seats.

We have plans for a concert next week.  I really would like to see the lady, who has won more Grammy  awards than anyone, while she sings some of my favorite songs.

Entertainers, if you’re listening, take note.  It ain’t fun trying to see around a double wide butt.
