Annoying Concert Behavior

my biggest issue at any show is talkers.  Thats one reason I don't mind waiting in line all day, especially at a place like Red Rocks, to be front row, and be surrounded by folks I know won't ruin the experience by talking.  We were front row center both nights,(not counting the handicap row, which I agree were just people who were not handicap and paid extra for the tix). 

We were about 6 rows back in Atlanta, and 2 ladies were sitting behind us having a full blown conversation during Steam Engine.  My wife finally turned around and told them to be quiet.  It just is the worst thing you can do at a show and I will never understand why someone pays money to go somewhere and try to talk really loud.
If you don't know for yourself, how could you ever know for me....

Yeah, that ericm, he's pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty good. Never annoyed me at a concert once!  :beer:

I don't know Crispy, I've heard some crazy stories about that EricM character.  Always gets there early, wants a poster, good seats up close, and acts like he knows everyone.  He even rocks out like someone who is 20-30 years younger than his age.  I'm not sure if that's appropriate and really can't relate.   

was some shakin' and some record playin'

Haha. You guys are too much.  :grin:   I always have a blast hanging out and then rocking shows with ya both.  :thumbsup:

Already looking forward to the next time and let's hope it's a lot sooner than next summer (even though I'd take that in a heartbeat)   :beer:

Maybe someday, I'll get to find that out for myself! LMAO

Eric - Bo says that that 25 poster bullshit *WILL* be taken care of.  His words. :thumbsup:

Well - I just can't compete speed wise for the running of the seats.  We ended up 3rd center both nights, and I can deal with that, but night 1 we had crashers hustling in, and I would not budge.  They eventually left after some giving me stink eye that I gave 3 flying F***s about. LOL  Night two was a huge number of OBH folks and we all maintained our area fairly well.  It was much more enjoyable....except for the chick bitching about the VIP people sitting in the non-VIP areas.  Really??

Wait, what? You mean after all these years we've never actually rocked a show together? I thought for sure we've seen a couple of Genesis or Steve shows together.  :huh: I know we've rocked a few backyard shows though!!  :wink:

I'll do my best to get to the Ray NC show and we can rock the front row together.  :kiss:

Good to hear about the poster bullshit getting taken care of.  :thumbsup:  I've seen some shit in my years of going to shows but that merch deal was about as low and sleazy as anything I've seen. It bothered the hell out of me but I wasn't going to let it ruin my or anyone else's show. I just put it aside til after, then let people know so hopefully that guy ends up eating some of the dough he put out.

I still need a night one but no way in hell I'd give that lowlife a cent of my money. Worse comes to worst and I have to go eBay for it, I'd rather pay another seller a few more bucks than give him a friggin cent!
