Stevie Songs as Seen/Heard Through the Eyes of a BuckHead

It's completely understandable, but it still kinda bums me out and can't make things very easy. Glad you LB fans have found ways to enjoy the whole concert. These clips are awesome.

no reason to be sad.

you can't push down people's throats something they don't like or they are indifferent to, and life is too short to try to make yourself like something, especially when it is entertainment, that is there in the first place to make your life nicer and easier, more relaxed. it's not supposed to be work, it's supposed to be fun. and the posts and videos in this thread show how it can actually be a lot of fun, without having to like every song in the set, or even if you are indifferent to one of the performers / band members, but a huge fan of the other. especially if that other performer does everything in his/her power to make it worthwhile to everybody.

as far as different fan interactions, i found at these shows, where i met many primarily SN fans too, that we can all enjoy the shows and happily co-exist together, be respectful of each others' tastes and views, because in the end we are all there to have fun. i've really enjoyed meeting many different hard-core fans in front of the stage at the few shows i attended.
