in concerts sometimes; although, traditionally reggae was meant for the regular people hence the name reggae. Given that, reggae was often played in many settings such as at home, on the beach, at a party, etc. It is only as of recently and now that reggae has made its way into American culture that it is being played in actual concerts and being studied by ethnomusicologists. The music is now for more of an entertainment purpose rather than its traditional roots.
