Actually, I have a lot more questions baked into the original.

If you have options to buy general admission (standing) or a seat, why would you buy a seat and stand the whole time blocking everyone's view who is seated behind you?

Why is it that more often than not it's a double-wide ham-planet that feels the need to express their love for the act on stage at the expense of all those behind being treated to an eclipse rather than the show? (Actually, I think I know the answer to this one, they can't fit in the seat.)

At what IQ level do you not realize the entire section around you, we're talking over a dozen rows and three dozen seats per row, is not joining you in creating a lard wall?

I get it... you're enjoying the show; do you get that you're preventing other people from doing the same? Maybe the folks in the three or more rows behind you don't want to join your drink sloshing antics in able to see the stage over the top of you.

No. 1 hit? Have at it. Last song and encores? Of course, who isn't? Otherwise, if you bought a seat, use it.

Gonna be a tool here... Depends on the show. Always standing when the band takes the stage, in case something isn’t working on stage, or with the PA. For stacks n racks gigs, I stand near the band’s mixer guy for a couple songs to make sure he’s happy, then I sit down and read a book for the rest of the show. For actual mixing work, sit and chill for mixing for the crowd, stand ready to go for stage/ monitor mixing til it’s certain everything is good. When it’s good it’s great, when it’s bad it’s a true pain in the ass, as for any job.
