Also known as the High Mileage Seat. The seat which garners the most attention. This term can be viewed in two different manners. First of course is the obvious. At some places, there are certain seats at stage where the dancers will give more attention to the people sitting in them. Sometimes it can be the seat directly across from where the dancer gets onto stage, thus the person sitting in the HMS would be the first person she sees. The second meaning of HMS is more of a state of mind. When you enjoy sitting at stage and it shows, the gals will usually give you a much better show and a lot more attention than anyone else sitting at the stage. This causes the seat that you are sitting in or rather you yourself to become the HMS.
