AMEN!!! I too am sooooo ****ing sick and tired of the drunkards at the shows, be it Mac or Stevie....god!!!! Getting up and having to leave the row every 10 mins to get more beer or to pee!!!!!! and the yelling during BATB kills me!!!! The Vegas show, as you all stated, that Sat night, was awful!!!! I mean, we all are beyond EXSTATIC that she sang it, but SHUT UP AND ENJOY IT!!!! Anyone else puzzled by these people who sit up in the expensive seats, and then spend most of the evening going for more beer or having to pee?!?!??!!

I guess that's what I don't get -- how can anyone spend so much money to get the seats, then spend more on overpriced alcohol, and then spend more time going to the bathroom (long lines there too for women)? And of course, ruining the experience for everyone else. (But then I think the price for movie tickets is outrageous and despite the announcements, people think taking cell phone calls, looking at their blackberries and text messaging during movies is okay.)

My irritating fan experience happened at the Tuesday Vegas show. I had a seat in the front row and next to me was this 50-60 year old couple. I started talking to them before the show started and I could tell clearly they were NOT hardcore. They were locals who had called into a radio station and won the seats and a backstage pass!!!! I was about to pee my pants and I asked them if they could take a "friend" back with them. Well I think we all know the answer.
It just upsets me that here is this 20 year old girl, who flew from Jacksonville, FL to see her idol and worked my ASS off to get out there and these 2 old geezers get to go backstage!!! Well to make it even worse, turns out my whole dan row had backstage passes!!!!!! I'm thinking, did I miss something??
But I still had a wonderful time.

I have to agree with all of the drunk posts..... I've had beer spilled on me numerous times at concerts and that just pisses me off to no end And at the Tom concert a couple of weeks ago there were two guys standing in front of me that had nothing better to do than chat all night long--okay that didn't irritate me totally because I wasn't taping it or anything--but if you are going to chat then sit the hell down so I can see because I can not see when two people have their darn heads together all night blocking my view........... and it never fails the tallest people always stand in front of me

Gahh, I wanted to punch that bitch! What on earth was she thinking? She was the same one that jumped in when Stevie sang "And you..." (to be followed by "you are something to see")...and piss-lips shouts you .."ARE THE BEST THING!!" Um, what??? That's necessary? Completely ruined it.

This was more humorous than irritating but I was at a SYW show in Bakersfield, CA of all places (white trash central and the most drunk crowd I've ever been around) and when Lindsey threw his towel out into the audience a huge fight broke out over who caught the towel. Two very drunk girls really got into it and started brawling. Security had to intervene and it was quite a mess all over a sweaty towel

Wow, now a darn drunk cat fight broke loose, I bet that killed the show for everyone,that sucks, Ban alcohol at these shows,inside and in the parking lot,if you are drunk or high at the turnstiles, you will be ejected. it will save peoples attitudes flinging out,people getting hurt, the venue will save money in the long run with out getting sued and hiring less security, they will make up the loss on booze sales with that.
