Concerts are worse than movies 'cause they cost 10X as much and, really... why go if not to listen to the band? I was at a BNL concert last year and there was a group behind me (2 older ladies--possibly sisters--and 3 younger gals--maybe their daughters/nieces) and they talked, all 5 of them, loud loud loud, throughout the opening band's performance. Which was a shame, 'cause they were good for an opener. When BNL started, and they still kept yapping, I politely asked them if they could keep it down during the performance. To their credit, they did. Which didn't help any about the 4 college kids next to me who wouldn't ever sit down, thus making it a requirement for me to stand to see. And when I sat... well, let's just say that the one right next to me had eaten something that didn't agree. Oh, well. Shank: Yeah.

The woman next to me kept opening her cell to text a friend as the show progressed. Totally distracting. Stay home. She left at the 3/4 mark much to my relief.
