Sit Down or Get Rowdy? Vince Gill on Concert Etiquette - 2025 Week 15
Bar Talk Happy Hour
Thursday, April 10, 2025 - 15 minutes
When Vince Gill recently joined the Oklahoma Hall of Fame podcast, he got real about a question many artists and fans have wondered: why are so many concertgoers staying seated these days? Gill cracked, “Well, they’re all old,” but quickly turned thoughtful—suggesting it’s often about respect. Folks don’t want to block someone’s pricey view just to stand and sway.
In this episode of Bar Talk Happy Hour, Odie Coyote and Producer Raven take a look at concert etiquette through Vince Gill’s lens. Is there a right time to stand? Should fans sit for ballads and rise for bangers? And does it really vary depending on where you are in the country?
From rowdy honky-tonk dance floors to polite Midwestern crowds, we dig into the regional rhythms of live music behavior—and share our own do’s and don’ts for being a good concert neighbor. Whether you’re a lean-back listener or a front-row stomper, this one’s for you.
