"there"
Hello,
I meet with a sentence: "I was concerned for a minute there". I don't understand what does "there" mean here. Is it "about it" ? Would someone please answer this question? thanks!
[person A]
The new single I'm All Over It will receive it's first UK airplay tomorrow morning (Tues) on Wogan's Show after 0800.
I thought it would be good to start a thread so we can post when we hear the song played
.........

Glad to hear the song on the radio at long last!!!
I was rather concerned for a minute there when there was a long pause after his single finished. But Wogan said he liked it

It's really a quite meaningless additive, sometimes carrying the idea of "at that time". It is more common in some regions and ethnic groups in the US than in others. You will hear it quite often in the movie "Fargo", for example.
