That makes sense though.
The time I was in Tokyo for the FF14 Orchestra concert, I just wanted to be there rather than be in the perfect sport for that venue so I couldn't care less where I actually sat.
If anything, my hearing issues make me less concerned about specific seat over actually being able to attend the event.

Haha, yeah.. that would depend on the venue. In a sports stadium, arena seats are the temporary seats placed on the playing field level with the stage. The stands are the built in seating of the stadium itself which are the normal seats used when a game is playing. They should specify if it doesn't actually include a chair to sit in with 'tachimi' or similar language no matter what section it is though.
