What is the youngest age you would take your child?

OK, I am nervous now. I got 13th row, right of the stage on the field in Seattle. I'm taking my 6.5 year old because she LOVES Paul and the Beatles and I figure this is a once in a lifetime chance. Doubt he will ever come back to Seattle. It's been ages since I've been to a big rock show. On the field will there still be some assemblance of rows? My kid is going to have to stand on a chair for sure, but I'm wondering if the chairs will even be in place. I don't want this to be an awful experience for her, I want her to enjoy it. I think she will be able to handle the noise/lights (we've been to other shows, just not as big) but I am worried about getting squished. Will that only be happening near the stage? By the way, I was trying to get seats in lower balcony because of her age, but I couldn't find anything. Two seats on the field came up and I just snatched them up. Funny how 13th row seems like a downer now, I should be ecstatic.
You should still be ecstatic. At Wrigley, Night #1 in 2011, my friend brought his 9 year old son who needed to stand on his chair for about 90% of the show. We were seated in what was probable row 30 on the floor. His son only reached the height of a normal-sized adult when standing on the chair. So, if everyone is standing, it should be no problem. Folks are usually pretty understanding about this kind of thing. When people sit, you can always seat your child on your lap for a little added height. Best advice I can offer is to introduce yourselves to your neighbors in the row behind you and explain that your child is there to see Paul for his first time and to make sure that they can see if she is standing on the chair. Again, she probably won't need to stand unless the people if front of you are standing. And if they're standing, I can pretty much guarantee you that everyone in the first 20 rows will be doing the same.
