Concerts - to sing along or not?

I think it depends on the type of concert. If it's an indoor venue and the performer is asking people to sing along, or if it's an outdoor or stadium rock concert, then that's fair enough.

I suppose a loud anthem I wouldn't mind too much, but if it was someone singing a cappala or something like Eva Cassidy -style, I would be very cross.

No you are not!!

I hate any kind of audience participation unless it is requested by the performer.

I also chatting, phones going off and rustling of food packets in the cinema as well.

If I am paying good money to go and watch something or someone I want no distractions.

No YANBU. I only sing along if encouraged to do so by the performer. I do lipsync though!

It seems to the thing these days that you don't go to a concert to hear the artist, but to screech as loud as you can while 'joining in'. I would be loath to pay all that money to see someone and then be stuck beside a screaming banshee who wants to sing along with every word. AIBU?
