However, I can also see how it could sour some people who are there simply to hear the music.
I prefer if the love was appropriately shown after the song, not during it. I'd rather hear just Stevie singing the song sans the audience participation. It really sucks how society standards have drastically shifted in the last twenty years. To quote Stevie: "How will we feel twenty years from now?" Well I feel like we're living in a new naval-gazing "ME" generation, facilitated by technology/social media.
