Firstly, I just noticed your avatar and love it elle!!!

Secondly, Lindsey actually spoke to this lady who was complaining? If so, awwwwww! That is SO sweet.

Well anyway, hope someone from the Ledge went because I'd love some more deets!

Thanks elle, as always.

This reminds me of one time when I had two seats at a show and I was alone. I put my purse in the other seat. I have no problem letting someone else sit in the empty chair, but this guy who pushed his way in and demanded that I move the purse was loud and drunk and I refused. He kept hassling me vociferously and security came over and I just gave them my ticket, so that they could verify it was not that guy's seat. I then turned my eyes back to the stage and let security argue with the guy, while I kept looking at Lindsey and singing Big Love. He looked back at me, then turned distracted by the man arguing with security next to me and then back at me. I just shrugged at him and kept on singing.

I always wondered what he was thinking, if he was thinking that I had called security over (which I hadn't) and was perturbed that I had spurred an uproar during one of the highlight songs or if he blamed the drunk guy for being loud and obnoxious.

If he had tried to talk to me and tell me that I should let a freaky guy sit in the seat I wasn't using, but had paid a pretty penny for, to keep the peace at a rock concert then I would have . . . hmmm, told him that Tusk was a crummy album.

I bet he was pissed for you. I mean, LB is fairly defensive of his fans when it comes to loudmouth imbeciles acting a fool with one of them. I know he notices hard-cores, and he REALLY loves it when people get into the songs...this guy was out of line with you and, quite frankly, I'm impressed you stood your ground with him. I had an experience at LB's show in Wisconsin where some drunk guy next to me kept hitting on me and then spilled his drink all over my purse. Which was suede. Freaking GREAT. Anyway...good on you Michele! Boo on that dude. Yay for LB feeling your pain.

Oh WOW!! Go on Lindsey!! Elle, it seems that this show is more quiet than the others. Thanks to you I've heard anything about it at all. Perhaps someone will come out of the woodworks.

Oh my goodness. Isn't that always the way. Of course it was going to be suede or silk. I bet about 95% of all of our bad experiences at rock concerts is a result of someone's drunkenness.

Truer words were never spoken. It's like the time I saw this dude puke all over this girl at a Tom Petty concert. They didn't even know each other but she was in his way...

That's rock n roll!

GYOW - from the same guy who's been tweeting (see above) -



love that frame with all the hands waving trying to get to LB/his guitar

[Nico]

Wow!! That crowd sounds wild. I love the energy of that song live. For some reason I went through this very "meh" phase with live GYOW and then I started seeing LB doing it live solo and I kind of have this new adoration for it.
