Best/Worst Experience at a Stevie Concert

[UndoingTheLaces]

Okay guys, it's story time. Tell us your best or worst experience at a Stevie concert. Now, this is not meant to be a Stevie bashing thread. I'm thinking of bad experiences at a show for reasons unrelated to Stevie herself. I thought this would make for an interesting thread.

Okay, here's mine. My best times were just seeing Stevie. I've never had a chance to meet her or even get tickets on the floor, I always end up way far. But I've always enjoyed the shows.

But the worst experience I've ever had was at the Pittsburgh Street Angel show. I went with two friends of mine who would not stop talking the whole show. "Is she gonna sing Gypsy?", "What song is this?", "Why won't she sing Gypsy???", "oooh, is this Gypsy? No, it's not, does she ever do Gypsy anymore?"

I'm not even exaggerating. I finally blew up at them and told them to shut up and then they spent the rest of the time brooding.

Then, the people in front of me just to the right all decided to stand up, as most people do at rock concerts, and dance in their seat. So I got up too. Then this nasty guy a few rows behind me started yelling at me to sit down. So I begrudgingly sat down but more and more people started standing up in front of me to the point where half the stage was blocked from my view, and if you've ever tried to look at something far away when something close was obstructing your view you know that it can go so far as to be headache inducing, so I stood up. Well, the guy behind me threw a fit and started yelling. I turned around and said, "people are standing up in front of me, I can't help it". But he didn't care, he yelled some more, then he started throwing things at me. At first it was garbage, empty food wrappers and wadded up balls of newspapers or whatever he had laying around. Then he threw a half-eaten hot dog at me! I swear, I'm not making this up.

Then when we were leaving me friend was saying how he was being a real jerk and then she stopped and looked at me in horror. "What?" I said. She looked at me in disbelief and said, "that man just spat on you". I thought she was mistaken but when I took off my jacket there was a huge nasty loogie on the back. Can you believe that? I was really upset.
