I know the peddle guys tend to use pack-a-seats, but what do you guys who play Stringmasters or other console steels use on stage? Do most people prefer to stand?

Standing is my last choice.

Do you bring a pack-a-seat?

Usually, I dislike folding chairs.
It's best to sit with your legs parallel to the floor.

Do most of you bring some type of seat with you or rely on whatever is available at the venue?

Erv, wouldn't it be much more comfortable if you placed your feet on the floor? Surprised

I bring a drum throne - easily adjustable for your preferred height, and doesn't take up a lot of room in the car...

Lee,
No, I like to sit on the floor with my legs stretched straight out. Laughing

Since I'm fronting and singing, I have to stand and I've gotten very used to it.
If I ever get a chance to sit, I use a nice little x-style folding padded keyboard bench. Some models are adjustable for height and they're fairly inexpenisive, extremely light and portable.
