The further you go into a crowd the more surprised those people will be that you are there.
People in the front row already have half the fantasy realized. They bought the front row ticket so some type of interaction is almost expected. That’s why you buy that particular ticket.
The further the people are away from the stage the bigger the fantasy they have to create in their minds that they’re going to get to be face to face with the artist. So when it happens the pay off is even more breath taking.
As an artist, if you’re looking for a sure fire home run pitch…go further away from the stage. Those people secretly hoped you’d see them, but never expected it.
The people in the front row are the ones that get that kind of attention, but not in the 100th row.
Except when they come to your show.
