I have just seen the last few concerts i asked security about standing
they said it was ok provided you don't stand in the aisle but the abuse you here and get from
some of the people behind is beyond belief to sit down.
The treatment Ivan Miejer got and he is on the forum because he stood had things thrown at him
a load of abuse and got threatened by being grabbed by the shoulder and was told he would be seen to outside after the concert
luckily the security saw this and Ivan had to wait a few minutes while the audience cleared end then have a escort out.
i hope Ivan will give more details by telling about his experience. Stacey Campell saw what happened and was disgusted she told me after one of the other concerts.
I do not know what to think they stay seated and motionless except when cher sings the last 2 songs and then most of them but
even then not all stand and enjoy and get into the swing of things.
I was told by one of the team that cher is disappointed because they just sit and no matter what Stacey or Jenny and the dancers do
to get the people moving at the moment it is an impossible task.
I spoke to a lot of people after the concerts about this who went and most of them said they did not realize they could or
because it is a show and not a concert.
There do seem to be a lack of communication on what you can do and not do i think someone should from either security or the Col
people makes this clear and clarify this situation

I think you're right, Ollie. And I'm not sure that Cher knows what's going on out in the audience as of security telling people to sit down at the beginning of Cher's first run in May and other audience members complaining about people standing and dancing. People keep getting yelled at by security and now other people in the audience and some people feel they need to sit down so they don't cause trouble. Cher and her dancers and back-up singers may be unaware that all of this is going on because they're so busy with the show. They might notice it a little bit once or twice but I'm glad Stacy noticed it once and I think they all need to be aware about what's going on. They might not be aware that at the beginning, security told people to sit down then other audience members (mostly tourists who just came to be entertained, not necessarily fans) are the ones causing trouble.

I think Cher needs to include something in her monologue about this such as it's ok to dance so security knows not to bother people who are dancing and so other people can be aware that we are allowed to dance. Then that way the others will be prepared if we do get to dance so they won't complain so much. They can either put up with the dancing in front of them or leave because if Cher requests it, security won't bother people who want to dance. Maybe after Cher makes everyone aware that dancing is allowed then security will just let people dance and those who complain can be asked to leave if they don't stop bothering the fans who are dancing. They're not there to really enjoy the show anyway so why stay? I know they paid money to go, a lot of it but here's a lesson for the whining people... never pay so much money to a CHER show if you're not a fan because there will be dancing!

Since Cher may be in the middle of changing a few things before August, you guys should send an email to customer service at Caesars Palace and let them know your experiences! Customer service is really reliable, friendly and great and very responsive! When I contacted them, there was a lady named Ginger Riley and I emailed her twice and she said she forwarded my email to the manager to let Cher and her team know about our concerns. So if you got Ginger Riley, you're in luck! She is wonderful, friendly, polite and very, very nice! Not that all other customer service agents are terrible but... it's a good idea to contact them and let them know your experiences and thoughts and I'm sure they will be more than glad to pass the word out so Cher and her team gets our messages!
