" I bought my tickets but I agree with everyone else. Every rock band expects their fans to stand throughout the concert and with close seating and whatnot it really makes it uncomfortable. The Godsmack concert at the Orpheum was good except for the standing at a weird angle the whole time. My feet hurt for days. Seats should be an option, not manditory, when it comes to concerts like this. "

" I agree.. Whats a good concert without being able to stand up and have a good time.. Thats why I go to Omaha..Tyson is lamo dude. We love to get squashed, crowd surf and have a great time. And you &$@#$%@ are making it crap.. not going to waste my time buying a ticket if they dont have General admin. "

" To bad our city is so lame that the main floor is going to be seated. Rock/Metal concerts should be general admin. They are making us rockers look like pansies by sitting down instead of loving the music the way it should be. And for those that complain of getting hurt, the seats are for you. Thats why I dont bother buying tickets to concerts in Sioux City. Two of the best entertainers and you are making us sit.. TYSON get a clue. "
