sweeney seating question

I have seen the show from the mezz and am planning on going back again. I was wondering what people thought about the front row on the side for sweeney. I was trying to figure out if the actors sitting on the side playing their insturments would block any of the action going on center stage. Do you think I will be able to see anything from the front row on the side or should I look for a seat farther back (I like being close up, I just don't want anything to be blocked sicne i am paying a lot for the ticket). Thanks.

Hey speaking of which, how were the seats from mezz? Because I know they are $36.00 but I would only buy them if I can see.

The rear mezz seats are good seats. I sat in the last row for the first preview performance and I could see the actor's expressions and everything. The second time I saw it, the ushers moved many of us down to the front mezz anyway.
