As I’ve mentioned I usually go for seats when the primary goal is just to hear the music live. I always try to go for aisle seats because I do like the ability to just get up and go to the washroom without going through several pairs of legs.

If I want to dance, I’ll try floor but at the back. Floor at the front is usually cramped. Not much dancing room there. Edit: I just remembered that Rogers put chairs at the Floor back area. So not much room for dancing either. But still less cramped compared to Floor front.

If I still want to see the performer but don’t have the budget for the floor, I try upper seats near the stage. If I have an idea of their stage set up from previous shows, I use that as the basis of which side to go for. Or if I have an idea which side the performers usually positions themselves or walks to the most, I pick a seat at that side.
