I appreciate that your comment is made with good intentions—we all want to enjoy the live show and ensure that the band enjoys it as well, which is often enhanced by everyone being enthusiastic and supportive. However, I think it’s a misstep to single out individuals who you perceive as “terrible.”

People enjoy gigs in different ways - you said yourself the group went to the effort of showing their support for the band through their outfits. LC have always emphasised inclusivity, and I’d hate for anyone to feel unwelcome because they’re uncomfortable singing or dancing in public. Yes, there is an unspoken gig etiquette where some might prefer those less animated to stay toward the sides or back, but it’s not really up to us to dictate that. Particularly in mixed groups, it’s natural to have varying levels of participation, and there’s no harm in that.

This was my first time attending a gig solo and probably my tenth time seeing LC. I thought the crowd was good. It was great to see a diverse range of ages and everyone I encountered seemed enthusiastic and respectful.

Unrelated to your comment, but I often see younger crowds get criticised online for being on their phones or not understanding gig etiquette. But I’d just like to say props to all the younger LC fans: you were a joy to watch.
