The performers are aware of it too, quite often; I remember a Cowboy Junkies show where Margo made frequent references to the "geese" back by the bar who were sometimes as loud as the band. Do people really enjoy spending $$$ for a show and then milling around the whole time drinking and shouting at each other? Me, I was leaning on her stage monitor soaking up a brilliant performance. I know I got my money's worth. - -----Original Message----- >From: heidi maier >Sent: Jun 9, 2009 3:11 AM >To: ecto@smoe.org >Subject: Re: ecto-digest V14 #156 > >> The audience sucked (not just near me - elsewhere, Meth was considering >> knocking someone over).
