    I was at the Smashing Pumpkins show last evening, really a great show, it was amazing. But we had to deal with drunk dudes that wasn't watching the show at all and kept bumping me and talking loud, I grabed one of them and told him firmly to stop, almost got into a fight, they finally leaved the place way before the end of the show...

    I'm so tired of people. Why are people paying almost 200$ for a ticket to go see a band they dont care for? I heard one of them saying "I know a few songs" ... That show was for real fans that know all the songs, not just the 3 most popular ones! It was a 3 hours long show ffs! They didnt care about the show and were there to drink and talk and have fun... go to a fuckin bar!

    • just stay home and listen to the albums! spend 170 on wine and French cheeses. have a 100% better quality experience.shapesalad
    • How did concert costs get so ridiculous? Esp for a band that hasn't released a popular album in decades.yuekit
    • The drunk dudes having fun are doing it right! Rock and roll should be exactly that -- Free of any rules & social norms!chukkaphob
