Buckingham woos and wows at The Pabst

The crowd should have started a riot (with the great performance and Lindsey’s energy) but that wasn’t happening. Honestly, I was embarrassed for Lindsey! He deserves a better crowd reception.

There were a few whistles and howls, but nothing that I thought was obnoxious. In fact, I was happy for these moments, because it showed that some of us in the crowd were actually alive and awake for the performance! People clapped and cheered during Lindsey’s guitar solos as most of us would do, and shouted requests in between songs. I don’t recall anyone shouting requests in the middle of a different song.

I don’t think the request for “Hypnotized” was out of line, as Lindsey has performed the song in the past at Fleetwood Mac shows, but I think it probably would have been more appropriate at a Mac show.

I’m happy that I got to see Lindsey perform solo, but the sh*tty Milwaukee crowd will always (in my mind) cast a negative light on the show. I hope the crowd at the rest of Lindsey's shows are much better!

I have to agree with EVERYTHING that you said here. The crowd absolutely sucked !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I whistled quite a bit for him ! I kind of felt bad as sooo many -people were sitting down, and acted like they didn't even want to be there! I tried to make up for the people that seemed as if they were at a funeral instead of a Lindsey show!

I did my part to show Lindsey some love !!!!! I was whistling after every song !!!

Ok...I was at the Milwaukee Show and it was Excellent.
We were in the 5th row from the stage. We cheered, clapped, stood, danced and sat at appropriate times. For the most part, I don't know how rows 6 through ? behaved.

We did hear certain LEDGE MEMBERS screaming & whistling at inappropriate times....when the soft-spoken Lindsey was trying to speak or during quiet guitar moments etc.... It seemed very inappropriate. I know you were expressing your lust for him but...I don't think such a high-level musician wants cat-calls during a sensitive acoustic song. I would think he would want his musicianship appreciated..not his "hotness".

There were a few times when he welcomed conversation with the audience.

Save the poorly timed hoots and hollers for the next Clay Aiken show.
To reiterate...we love to have a good time at shows (stand/cheer/dance etc...) but...imagine a 55+ yr old woman with a gruff Lucille Ball-type smokers voice screeching and telling Lindsey he's "hot" or "fine" or whatever during a very slow, quiet acoustic version of GO INSANE. (cringe)

Save it for the rockin' segment of the show (Go Your Own Way etc...)
Thanks. Your fellow concert-goers (& maybe even Lindsey) will appreciate it.

That's funny !!!!! I didn't hear any 55+ year old lady with a gruff voice doing that???

I only whistled after the songs, and quite loudly !!!!

I was in Row E and didn't hear that during Go Insane????

Clay Aiken ???????????????
