Why are these people making it difficult to get to my seat?

We receive many complaints, but no suggestions, about how to clear the paths to your seats of so-called "aisle monkeys", those who dance in the aisles, either burgeoning out from the row ends, or simply floating about the venue without regard to seats (even in reserved venues) and/or making various attempts to move toward "the rail" (the front guardrail just before the security/photography moat that separates the crowd and the stage).

Being polite is of course preferred, but not necessarily effective. Two people suggested carrying a small "pen light" flashlight to point just ahead of your feet as you walk: "that should help, without disturbing everyone" one wrote. Those less tolerant of aisle monkeying shoot a water pistol, or flash a light, into the monkeys' faces.
