Given a choice, I will hang with the headbangers any day of the week.

Hmm...Dave as a headbanger at a Metallica concert? I smell Heidi's next Photoshop masterpiece...

Or perhaps such doctoring is unnecessary - maybe Dave has some pics from back in his "wild days" he'd be willing to share with us?

Either way...ROCK ON, DAVE!!!!

By the way, nowhere in Dave's post does it say that we all need to be STANDING or blocking people's views to exude the energy he is seeking. Most of his references were to MAKING NOISE. Again, that's the key. I imagine there are certain emotionally-charged moments at an event where EVERYONE should be standing and acting crazy, but they are just that - MOMENTS, meaning TEMPORARY.

Be loud all the time! However, out of respect for others, try to remain seated unless your admiration for an award winner or speaker or your absolute excitement over an event on the field forces you to explode up out of your chair to release that energy that's bubbling over. No one's chaining you down in your seats - just try to be judicious and respectful when choosing when to stand up!
