So I’m looking in The Coast and wow, The Urban Surf Kings are playing!!!!! Great! I arrive at the show, find a place to stand, the music starts and then… some woman with white hair (maybe grey) talks and talks through the whole fucking show. What the hell?
These guys only play like once or twice a year and you had the nerve to talk loud through the whole thing. It was a short show, so could you not control yourself for such a short time?
I even moved to the other side of the stage area and still I could hear you. I have never seen (or, rather, heard) such disrespect for someone’s playing. Just so you know, the moments when the band stops for a second or two are meant to be silent. It’s part of the damm tune—silence is an element of music you dumbass, especialy surf guitar!
And you even had the nerve to talk when the lead Rev. Hank played a ukulele solo which was not even amplified at all (so cool). So SHUT THE #$@% up already! If I see you at another show I will tell you what a frigging loud mouth you are ! —Thanks for ruining my night!

wait a sec! was this show even amplified or are you just going all hyperbolic here? really? you could hear from the other side of the stage? was she shouting herself hoarse?
HOw much were drinks?
I highly doubt that if you see them at another show you’ll tell them “what a frigging loud mouth” they are considering you couldn’t just do that at this show.
I think I may have heard about this woman. If it is the same woman, I think she is partially deaf and does not quite realize what she is doing is inappropriate (not sure if it is due to dementia or just strange personality).
Too bad you let it ruin your night. There are assholes in every crowd, you’ve gotta learn to deal, dude.
They always say; at the next show, or next time – like it will re-occur – GGB
Who?
Once or twice a year? Sounds like a great music career. LOL.
Perhaps you could’ve asked her to stfu?
If there’s a person near me at a show who won’t shut the hell up, I tell them to! I paid money to hear the band, not the loudmouth, and I tell them that. You don’t have to be everyone’s friend, all the time. If someone’s being an inconsiderate ass, they should know, otherwise they may never know how obnoxious they are, and continue on, oblivious to their assness.
Unless the person is indeed mentally challenged (a quick, polite word with a security person may help) or looks like they’ll kill you if you speak up, just say something. I’m willing to bet a few people around you will thank you.
what they’re not telling you is the women is the drummer’s gf… bored to tears hearing the same old’ same ol’
That sounds like the dumbass who whooped and whistled through my Happy Birthday song at Bearly’s last night.
