I've walked out of a concert. A Jazz concert. The top bill was Oscar Petersen. We booked early and paid extra for great seats in the balcony, overlooking the stage. However, Oscar was ill, and never made it. Undeterred that Oscar wasn't going to be there, there were still some great names in the line-up, and we all still wanted to go.

However, the seats sold were less than the promoter expected, so they never opened the balcony, and put us in the stalls, at the back, like the very back.

Was there a stage up the front somewhere?

Disgusted, we walked out. Not because of the performers, but because of the selfish promoters. They lined their pockets and simply didn't deliver. I learned that promoters have a reputation for that kind of thing.
