    I was in the Yellow section and moved as close to t he middle as possible in the section and the angle for the front screen is still terrible.
    The back screens are ok.
    Because of the bad angle and that I wanted to enjoy the show I took no video and not that many pictures. For video visit my pictures from last week or our YouTube channel.
