Just as a heads up, the ushers try their best to have people fill up the front sections before letting them sit in the back. If you ask extremely nicely and beg, you might be able to get a seat towards the back before the front is filled.

Or just refuse the seat they offer and retreat to the lobby until 1 minute before the show starts. Then get the farthest available seat from the stage.

Or just not go through any trouble and go see any one of the better offerings in the park.

Frankly, I don't get why people would even want to watch any other show after London Rocks. This is clearly the Citizen Cane of theme park shows. If watching it requires guests to be herded to seats with no say in the matter, then so be it.

Yes. And having now experienced this fascinating approach to hospitality and customer service first hand, I cannot for the life of me imagine why.
I can see no logistical reason to force people to fill in the front rows completely. As long as everyone moves to the middle of his chosen row, what possible difference could it make?
I can you tell the result of this system, however. Several groups tried two techniques to circumvent the mean lady with the flashlight (was that to hit people over the head to force them to comply?):
1. Some people tried to ignore her altogether and seat themselves farther back. They were herded back out of their chosen row, creating even more chaos;
2. Others simply stood against the wall, refusing to sit down, until she allowed them to pick a center seat in a back row, which of course meant there were people milling around everywhere.
So, if you go along with the inane system, you get forced into a bad seat. If you choose, however, to be a difficult guest (which I hate to do), you get what you want in the end, but have to go through a lot of hassle to achieve it.
Brilliant.

My dad mentioned this to me, when were at a concert the other week. The concert had barely sold half the venue, and they were selling basically the best seats in the house, for $10 more. (you could upgrade the moment you got in the gates.) My dad had mentioned they do it to try and make the venue look fuller. Even though the row we sat in had a grand total of 5 others besides my dad and myself. (we were towards the back.)
But maybe it's to make the cast feel like there's an audience out there. I mean I know stage lights are bright, and you can't see out into the audience very well at all. But filling up the front first would make it seem like the theater is fuller to the cast?
Either way it's completely ridiculous.

^ The 930 Club in DC has a mobile stage because of this. If the show has not sold well, they move the stage forward.

RE: London Rocks! (2014 to Present)
Quite honestly, I never noticed the prop like ever. They probably use a random record each show. I'm sure it is still mixed in, but it so well mixed in we may not see it for awhile. Either way, the show seems to be getting more and more edgy and adult.

The girl that was discussed earlier about showing too much cleavage during the finale. I forgot to tell you guys this, but when I saw it, her vest button popped, and she was just wearing a bra for almost half of the finale. I haven't even seen that much in Fiends.

So, her costume broke? You should feel bad for her.

It's the fact that there was only one button between us seeing a lot of cleavage and a belly button, or an adult film.

During the record scene especially, Lucy is consistently bending over and not just a little bit but a lot and quite low as well. That was just one thing that came to my mind and I feel as if her dress has gotten shorter. I also noticed the kissing seems to have gotten much more passionate and physical.
However, I will note, this was my first time in awhile watching this cast. I typically saw the other cast which I did not notice these things and I'm not sure if that makes a difference.
I've actually have my nit picks for each cast. I like the one secondary couple in one of the casts. Their facial expressions are so much better than the other ones in the other cast. I think the secondary girl I prefer has brown hair versus the one with blonde hair. The one with the blonde hair over exaggerates her facial expressions when she plays the girl in the triplets. It actually gets rather annoying. I noticed the one guy uses parachute pants while the other guy uses cargo pants. I like the guy with the parachute pants, I think he has the better facial expressions. I don't like the one larger girls costume. I'd much prefer for her to cover up with capri's or do full jeans.
Just as a side note, I had noticed the bra, but it definitely was not one of the major issues.

Also during the Sunday 8PM show during the wedding celebration dance scene one of the dancers heel broke and she had to remove them and still stay on beat with the dance. With all of these malfunctions they may need to hire a full time person just to repair everything just for this show lol

I saw some penile insertion last show, but I didn't think it was anything out of the norm.

^ I know. They better fix the costumes before the intended family audience (it's intended for families right?) get's educated.
I'm kind of glad I don't intend on seeing the show. It sounds worse and worse every day.

To be fair, mistakes happen.
When I watched Mix it Up this weekend, one of the poor dancers dropped his sword as he was trying to catch it (and looked horrified when he did it). Then a couple of weeks ago, I was watching Celtic Fyre and a piece of the girls dress fell apart and they had to sort of dance around it/figure out how to transition her our to fix it. It wasn't as bad as her entire top being opened (I think she lost a veil or something, I can't remember) but it was still a noticeable mistake.
On London Rocks, while I do not like the show, I really don't see it as being 'overly sexy'. When people first started taking about the kiss, I had to rewatch the video Zach posted(RIP) multiple times just to figure out what scene people were talking about. Maybe this means I need to look at my life....
