If you are so old you would be that excited about James Taylor, I'm not worried about the squishing because I know you would break a hip before getting to me. ;)
You could go to shows. With the kids even! You should check out the Zoo Concert series. Lot's of people grom their kids and it's especially fun when the peacocks and elephants sing along. :-)
I'd have no problem trampling you into a squashy stain on the ground for a ticket to see James Taylor.
