Ah...I believe you were introduced to that humorous horror by me?! ;) HAEWAFY is especially a gem. There is also someone who repeatedly whispers, "Bless you Stevie, bless your soul". It's a little freaky and it cracks me up every time. (Sorry if you're here, but it never ceases to entertain me.) Remember, though, that you can hear them so loud because the VCR mic is right by them. If Stevie could hear them, it was probably not well if at all. Also we are typically not quite as close to the stage as those particular audience members were (due to the type of venue). The band has their ear monitors as well, so I doubt they can hear any one individual. Somehow, when most of the audience sings along (ie GYOW), it sounds pretty much on-key as a whole even though you know at least 1/2 the audience is probably off. I think the band would rather see that we know every word (especially to the new songs) than have us worry about how we sound. I think it's a given they want us there to forget our troubles and have a good time, not be self-conscious. Hopefully I am right about all of this, because I find it physically impossible to restrain from singing along, unless I lose complete conrol of my jaw and it is hanging to the floor ("Sara" 2004 :) ). I just know the songs SO well, that I do it without even thinking.
